The Princess Diana Playground


Kensington Gardens 104 Bayswater Road, London W2 2UH

The Princess Diana Playground is a memorial to Diana, Princess of Wales in Kensington Gardens, located next to her Kensington Palace home. The playground was erected after her death on the site of the existing Peter Pan children's playground which had been founded in the time of JM Barrie (author of Peter Pan) but it is a larger and more elaborate arena than the original. The design was inspired by the stories of Peter Pan and is done so to encourage children to explore their imagination whilst they play. 

The centrepiece of this playground is a huge wooden pirate ship which provides much inspiration for the imagination of the children who succumb to this area. The playground is also home to a sensory trail, teepees, a play tunnel, a sand beach and various toys and play scultpures which will no doubt amuse even the adult kids among us.

It is estimated that over 750,000 children enjoy this free playground each year. There is ample seating for the adults where they can relax while the kids explore and play in this unrivalled arena of fun!
