Cannon Hill Park is a park located in Moseley, a suburb in south Birmingham, England. It is the most popular park in the city, covering 250 acres (101 ha) consisting of formal, conservation, woodland and sports areas. Recreational activities at the park include boating, fishing, bowls, tennis, putting, and picnic areas.
The park is also home to MAC (formerly Midlands Arts Centre), opened in 1962 on the site of the park's lido. Directly adjacent to Canon Hill, on the other side of the Rea, is Birmingham Wildlife Conservation Park (BWCP). Also on the other side of the river (and across the B4217) is Edgbaston Cricket Ground.
