Located in the Belmont/Cragin community, Riis Park spans 57.30 acres and offers a variety of recreational amenities for all ages. The park features a newly renovated fieldhouse equipped with a gymnasium, an assembly hall with a stage, teen center, and multi-purpose rooms.

Outdoors, visitors can enjoy a water park [opening summer 2025] designed for young children, a large swimming pool with a changing area, and a track for running or walking. Sports enthusiasts can watch a soccer match on the artificial turf field or play on one of the park’s 10 tennis courts. Fishing fans can cast a line in the designated casting pool, complete with a pier.

For generations, Riis Park has served as a central gathering space for the community. The fieldhouse anchors the park, providing a wide range of recreational programs and activities.

Youth will enjoy our Park Kids program, soccer, volleyball, and other seasonal sports. Cultural programs include arts & crafts and ceramics. During the summer, children can join our traditional six-week day camp, packed with fun activities.

Adults/Seniors can get creative by joining one of our cultural programs. Our staff will share their knowledge in photography, ceramics, stained glass, among other programs. For those looking for a little pickleball; we got you covered.
