Falls Church Plans Grand Reopening For Cavalier Trail Playground
Residents helped select the playground's final design. A Nov. 21 celebration will include a ribbon-cutting and face painting.
FALLS CHURCH, VA — Cavalier Trail Park will hold a grand reopening celebration for its redesigned playground Saturday, Nov. 21, from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., with a ribbon-cutting and face painting.
The playground at 600 S. Maple Ave. is already open following construction completed this month. Its nature-inspired equipment provides opportunities for climbing, balancing, sliding, swinging and imaginative play.
Residents helped shape the redesign through an October 2025 public meeting and online feedback. The community selected the final design at the March 2026 Advisory Board of Recreation and Parks meeting, and City Council authorized the project that spring.
