Dolores Park’s north field will be closed from December 2 to February 28, 2025, for its annual winter closure. This closure will help the park’s turf to rest and recover ahead of spring 2025.
Mission Dolores Park sits at the heart of one of San Francisco’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
Because of the park’s size and location, it also draws residents from the family-friendly Noe Valley and park users from the Castro, center of the city’s gay-rights movement. Dogs are free to roam off-leash in the center of this large grassy park or on-leash near the athletic fields, children’s playground or tennis courts.
There are two off-leash Dog Play Areas in Mission Dolores Park, illustrated on this map . The North DPA is delineated by the Dolores Street perimeter slope, stretched between the south court service driveway and 19th street center promenade, up the slope 20 feet into the flat of main field. The South DPA is located to the north of the playground, stretching to the central promenade and between the playground path to the east and the pathway to the west.
