I enjoyed the stage plays and there were lots of activities going on when I visited. It was funfilled

I needed to host a mini scrabble competition and of all the places that came to mind, this was the perfect fit. Freedom Park is an Open space, airy, field-like with seats and tables, memorable and historical with nearby relatable food spots. Perfect for small meetings, games, friendly banters, lovers, and family alike. Plus, the historical background of the place makes it a perfect place for plays and theatre performances which happen fortnightly.

I loved it there. I went to see a play at the Lagos Theatre festival and ended up spending the evening there. It was loads of fun with lots of great picture spots.
K

Kyky Kins

Saw a free play at one of the outdoor stages and it felt like I was in the abroad. I would suggest that management add sound equipment so it’s easier for the actors to show their craft. The play was fantastic plus it’s always a lovely experience coming here, the ambience epitomises the name of the park.

Had an amazing experience. The official band of the park @freedom5 is one of the best live bands I have ever come across. Great life music, great exhibition centre, wonderful centre for relaxation and for business also. Freedom park is a superb place to be.
A

Adam Wang

Been there more than 6 times for shows and quiet times. I give 5 start for the ambience and music and shows. The environment is not good enough but it’s good in lagos.

Tobi Dele-Safa

It’s a nice place to chill, eat and drink. You can also catch a live band or a comedy show depending on the day. It needs more parking space though.
J

Johnson Chinwendu

Purposely. I went to just to see the inside. But at the end..I enjoy everything about the place . Especially the art work and some accent pictures. U can as well go there for your photo shoot.
A

Ayooluwa Gboteku

Excellent life bands ,great events and good food. Great place to hangout when you want to avoid traffic after work.

Frank Osin

A spot of beauty that combines nature with arts, everyone has to visit the Freedom Park when in Lagos, as the name implies, it dates back to the Nigerian era of slave trade... Now a leisure spot with impressive works of art, sculpture and a gallery (upstairs).
F

Folarins

Nice place with a bit of history and culture. Food vendors need to be cleaner and keep the place a little cleaner. Seen some interesting plays here.
K

Kelechi Anabaraonye

It’s a fun place to wind and relax. There’s live music on certain days, weekends are the most fun days to visit. It’s a historic place with an intriguing history. Thankful to Theo Lawson for bringing the place back to life.

I

Isaac Oguji

Never knew there was something spectacular behind the massive walls I often pass by in this area. The statues and artworks here are pleasant. Love the fact that each statue and artwork has a description and short story beside it to explain what it means. I enjoyed the gardens and greenery. There are relaxation sheds and stages for live shows and performance. Entry fee is N200 per person and the parking is free. My first time here was very enriching and fulfilling. I quickly began to recall my thoughts and had a sense of belonging with the various historical relics and notable personalities that had been immortalized.

Heard about this place being a good location for music and concerts. visited it on week day so there wasnt any concert. Its a good place to hangout, there different sections and exibition that you can visit. The sitting area has been creatively done. There is an entry fee for the park , you can use your mobile phone but not a proper camera.
E

Emmanuel Ititim

They charge you a N200 gate fee which is standard. But if you want to film yourself or anyone here you will be asked to pay N10,000 or equipment will be seized. So much for being a "Freedom Park"

Olamilekan Majekodunmi

This place is good for art & poetic time. Located in a quite environment, at the back of a police station which provides security 24/7. The food at court is top notch and the Friday night gig is one of the best. They also have a thing for organizing music, art and dance shows regularly, you’ll enjoy one of these on your visit if it’s during their festive period. It’s also good for photography & video shoot. Nice scene and beautiful flowers.

Really nice place to unwind and relax in the evening. They had a live jazz band playing when I visited and a stand up comedian, and they were really good I have to add. Really cool ambience, which surprised me as it is located in the heart of Lagos Island. There are different stalls selling all forms of food and drink at reasonable prices. I enjoyed my time there and would go again. I recommend it for a visit. P.S they have loads of activities lined up for the festive period, so you might want to give them a look.
