Watkins Regional Park Special Events

Watkins Regional Park serves as a host site for various specialwatkins regional park logo
events and programs created by the County, the Commission, and/ or the Community. To better serve the patrons visiting Watkins on a daily routine basis, we’ve created this web page to keep you abreast of what’s happening in YOUR park!

Please take note of the special events and programs listed below, with the expectation that park amenities may be limited as the volume of traffic will increase on the day of events.

We appreciate your patronage and hope to see you there!
