The ACT Government installs and maintains barbecues in many of Canberra's parks.
There are 125 barbecues spread across the ACT's urban areas. Most barbecues are electric and constructed from brick with a stainless steel top. The barbecues are free to use and most are located near seats, tables, bins and a tap for convenience. Facilities may vary depending on location.
Barbecues are cleaned twice a week between September and April. Outside of this period, barbecues are cleaned once a week.
Cleaning involves using a hot water pressure wash and blower vacuums.
If you use a barbecue, please leave the area and hot plate clean and tidy when you leave, ready for the next person.
If you are planning on using a barbecue area for a large event, you should apply to use a public space.
To report a damaged or faulty barbecue, fill in the online feedback form.
Below is a list of barbecues in our urban areas.
