Tucked into Brisbane Street in the heart of Surry Hills, Harmony Park is a buzzing inner-city hub for dogs and their humans. This dedicated off-leash space has become the neighbourhood’s go-to meeting point, with shady trees, open lawns, and plenty of seating where locals swap stories while their dogs romp and socialise.
Its layout offers both sunny and sheltered spots, making it just as inviting for a coffee break as it is for a long play session. The park’s proximity to great cafés and shops means you can easily grab lunch to enjoy on the distinctive red wall or one of the shaded benches. With a friendly, close-knit dog-owner community, Harmony Park delivers a mix of energy, greenery, and urban convenience that’s hard to beat.
