Established on land originally belonging to the Gadi People, this 189-hectare space served as a water supply reserve before its transformation into a public park in 1888. It holds significant national heritage value as the location for the 1901 inauguration of the Commonwealth of Australia. The grounds are split between the City of Sydney and the City of Randwick and are part of a larger green space network including Moore Park and Queens Park.

The park comprises a mix of formal gardens, open sports fields, ponds, and a bush setting used for environmental education and sustainability programs. Facilities include playgrounds, equestrian schools, and dedicated areas for nature-based learning that incorporate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures. Historical residential architecture is visible along the park borders, and the area serves as a habitat for various wildlife.

Centennial Park is open to the public and offers various recreational amenities including strolling areas and horse riding paths. Seasonal events are hosted on the grounds, such as an outdoor cinema during the summer months. Venue hire is available for weddings and other functions. The park is wheelchair accessible and provides vast open spaces for leisure and sports.
