The City of Miami is beginning Phase One of its phased reactivation plan to reopen the community this week. Starting on Wednesday, May 20, several City of Miami parks, listed below, will reopen to residents from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. daily.
While you are likely brimming with excitement to head back to your neighborhood park, it’s not going to be business as usual. The city has put many new regulations in place designed to protect our community from further COVID-19 transmission.

New rules for visiting the parks are as follows:
- Parkgoers may visit parks either individually or with members of their household only.
- Facemasks required at all times, unless under age 2 or doing vigorous exercise like running.
- Social distancing required at all times, except for household groups visiting the park together.
- Parks are open for passive and leisure use only: walking, jogging, cycling, roller skating, singles tennis, and solo racquetball.
- Organized sports, pickup games, and training sessions are strictly prohibited.
