Edison’s 1st Splash Park Is Now Officially Open

EDISON, NJ – The highly-anticipated Edison Splash Park is now officially open. In the works for over a year now, the splash park is located at Lake Papaianni.

The $2.8 million splash park provides residents with a fun and safe place to cool off during the hot summer months.

The opening of the splash park was kicked off with Edison’s first-ever pep rally for youth leagues. The splash park features an iconic 20-foot replica of the Edison light tower, globes and classic film cameras as water guns.

It includes state-of-the-art water features and vibrant colors, a rubberized splash pad, a concrete patio, picnic benches and tables, shade structures, a cornhole, and a restroom building that are suitable for all ages.

The splash pad is in the shape of a light bulb.

The splash park will be open daily beginning from 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Sunday through Saturday during the summer season. Admission is free for entry to the Splash Park’s facilities.

Children under 13 must be accompanied by an adult.

Residents can sign up for sessions, and register with Community Pass at CommunityPass (capturepoint.com).
