Named for the jazz guitar legend, this east-side park carries the tribute onto its splash pad with music-themed spray fixtures. The pad is large and sunny, with picnic tables nearby including some shaded options.
What's on site. OpenStreetMap maps playground alongside, parking at this location. No public toilets are mapped here — worth knowing before you commit to an afternoon.
When to go. Peak summer highs in Indianapolis average 85°F — warm enough for a splash pad through most of the season without being punishing at midday.
