Jubilee Gardens
The gardens provide the perfect link from Ely’s Waterside through to the City Centre. The garden has open spaces for picnicking and free play, as well as formal beds and one of the five pieces of Eel Artwork, can be found here.
It also has a toddler play area, water feature and bandstand. Several events are held here throughout the year including a series of band concerts during the summer and the prestigious Eel Day where the World Eel Throwing Competition is held! The gardens have secured Green Flag status since 2005. The award is designed to recognise and reward standards of excellence and is recognition of the high-quality green space that the gardens provide to the local community in East Cambridgeshire.
