Gary Dexter Park

Gary Dexter Park is a public park at 800 Upland Blvd in Las Vegas (89107) with a playground, green spaces, and picnic tables for self-directed outdoor play. There is no structured class or program here; kids come to run around on the playground equipment, families use the picnic tables for a meal outdoors, and the open green space works for informal games. The park is listed as free to visit.

Gary Dexter Park is open every day of the week from 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM, and it operates year-round rather than on a seasonal schedule, so it is available for outdoor play at any time of year, weather permitting. The listing marks the park as special needs friendly with wheelchair accessible paths, which is useful for families who need a stroller-friendly or wheelchair-friendly route through the park.

Because this is a city park rather than a business, there is no phone number listed for the park itself, no age restriction beyond the directory's general 0 to 18 default range, and no programs, camps, or classes tied to the location. Families looking for structured activities for their kids will want to pair a visit here with a program elsewhere, while families who just want a free place to let kids burn off energy outdoors will find this a straightforward option.

The park's page on the City of Las Vegas website has more details on amenities and any closures, which is worth checking before a visit if you are planning around a specific feature like the playground or picnic area. Since parks can close temporarily for maintenance or renovation, calling the city parks department or checking their site ahead of a visit is a reasonable step if you are driving across town specifically for this location.

Parents comparing this park to others nearby may also want to note that no sports fields, splash pad, or dog park are listed for this particular location, unlike some of the larger regional parks in the city system, so it is best suited to a shorter playground visit or a picnic rather than an all-afternoon outing.
