Family Fun on the Fox River

Directions & Parking

 

Voyageur Park is located on the Fox River, 3 blocks north of the new Claude Allouez Bridge.

Parking

Parking is available near the park in city lots and on streets as designated. There are also several parking lots located off Front St. (alongside the Fox River). Some of the businesses in the immediate area of Voyageur Park post signs limiting parking so that they can provide parking for their customers, as they stay open during the event. We ask that you PLEASE honor those requests. There is also a limited amount of paid parking in some business lots near Voyageur Park that is staffed by and benefits local non-profit groups.
