Carousel Village

Carousel Village is the zoo-operated family destination with an indoor carousel and the outdoor fully accessible Hasbro Boundless Playground. Navigate to the exact Carousel Village pin rather than the general Roger Williams Park marker. Check the current carousel schedule before promising children a ride. Public restrooms are available at Carousel Village only during operating hours, and Food Truck Friday is seasonal and weather-dependent.

Use destination-specific park roads and lots near the zoo, botanical center, museum, carousel, Gateway Center, or recreation area. Busy attraction days and events can fill the closest spaces, so avoid navigating only to the park center.

Carousel sessions and indoor services follow the zoo operator's live seasonal schedule. The outdoor playground is described as open year-round, subject to weather, maintenance, and park access.

Public restrooms are available at Carousel Village during seasonal operating hours and at the Gateway Center by the Broad Street entrance during its operating hours. Attractions may have additional facilities for their visitors.

The playground can be used without a park admission charge; carousel rides, food, parties, and special activities have separate prices.

Accessibility varies across the large historic landscape. Carousel Village has the fully accessible Hasbro Boundless Playground, while individual gardens, bridges, trails, museums, zoo areas, and historic buildings have different surfaces and entrances. Route to the exact destination and confirm that attraction's current access information.

Dogs are allowed only in non-recreational areas and must remain leashed at all times. Keep pets out of attractions, playgrounds, sports areas, and other posted restricted zones, and remove all waste. Separately operated buildings, beaches, gardens, and attractions can set stricter rules.
