Lovely waterfront park, a beautiful place to see the sunrise. The park has a small bandstand, perfect for summer concerts, and lots of people launch kayaks from the pier.

I love local gems! I saw that there would be a Heritage day at Mill Point Park and I was excited to go. I didnt realize that this park was even here. Its small but its by the river and its such a chill spot. I will definitely be back.

Mill Point Park is a large park that we went to for the Jamaican Festival. It was the first time we had been and it was fun. The live music was of course the best part. There was not as many vendors as I thought there was going to be, but we really only went for the music so who cares lol. It was definitely something we would think about doing again.

Nice park and event venue. Audience seating for stage will burn you on a hot, sunny day - bring a towel to sit on.

I like the area. I attended a vegan festival and I like that it was interactive. The area is clean with a pretty lake that has a swing. I would definitely attend another event hosted at Mill Point Park.

Mill Point Park hosts family events that are safe and fun! The location is in old downtown Hampton positioned near the waterfront! The spring and summer concerts are the best and they are normally free. Be sure to check the website for Hampton Events for more details. I am a local and enjoy mingling with other great people who attend the events.

There is a historical home walk adjacent to this park and there are a lot of family oriented festivals close by throughout the year. I wish that the kayak launch was a little more developed so people could more easily explore the river.

This is a nice little park within the city limits, which I discovered by following the Hampton University tower. The park overlooks the Hampton River and just a short drive over the bridge, guides you you to the Hampton University campus.

Crabtown Seafood Festival was nice but not enough food vendors. Ran out of food. ️

Review №45

Went there for the Caribbean fest. Had a terrible experience! The site is too small for popular happenings and the city keeps funneling venues there!. Not enough security and we felt unsafe due to the massive crowd in such a small area. As a former law enforcement officer, I was constantly looking out for security. Lastly, there was no less than 300 people on each of the 4 food lines. Maybe good for very small gatherings like a book reading for kids or a kids movie.

There are sitting areas along the paths for tired hikers or just to sit and enjoy the view. The dog park looked interesting however I did not use it.Im definitely returning to this park again when I get the chance.

This was the International Childrens Festival.The streets were blocked off in Olde Downtown Hampton and tents set up for the various countries. It was very interesting and interactive for kids of all ages.There was also Food for purchase and tables to sit at which was very convenient.The stage area by the harbor hosted performances throughout the day. It was a wonderful experience for the entire family.

I mean ... its a park, so cant be that bad? Decent water view in downtown Hampton that can be quiet at times. Theyve done a craftbeer festival at least once here so be on the lookout for that (rain or shine like it was when I went). Parking can be harder to find).

Not really a park, more like a patch of grass with a tree on it. But theres a merry go round and its right next to the James River and a bank so you should have everything covered.
