Easter is one of the busiest days for local parks

Easter Sunday – which this year falls on March 31 – is one of the busiest days for the entire Travis County Parks system, so residents are encouraged to plan ahead and arrive early for their festivities. The parks will be open as usual, and Travis County will monitor capacity. If a park reaches maximum capacity, it will close. A closure notice would be posted to that specific park’s web page, and additional visitors would not be allowed in for the day. Visitors would not be allowed to park elsewhere and walk in, and those who leave the park while it’s at capacity would not be able to reenter. Additionally, to help protect the environment, visitors are asked to not bring confetti eggs (cascarones) that contain plastic confetti. For more information, visit each park’s web page and review the “Know Before You Go” sections.
