About the Venue

Lineberger Park Sprayground is part of one of Gastonia's signature family parks and gives splash-pad families much more than just a splash zone. The sprayground sits alongside a large playground, picnic shelters, walking trails, restrooms, and a seasonal pool complex, so it is easy to turn a short splash visit into a fuller park day. Mature trees and the larger park footprint make this a stronger comfort pick than many bare-bones splash pads, especially for families juggling different ages.
