Victoria Park is a public park in the Canton district of Cardiff in South Wales on Cowbridge Road East.

As its name sugests, it is a traditional Victorian park and has kept much of its charm. There is a paddling pool there which is a very popular attraction in summer and a playpark for children. At the very north of the park there are tennis courts and a 5-a-side football astro turf field. In 1998 a replica of the original bandstand was erected on the same plot. There are a lot of mature trees and a lot of blossom trees, crocuses and daffodils in Spring. There are wide paths and a refreshment shop by the pool. There are public music events, markets and fairs during the summer months. There is also a monument to Billy the Seal who used to live in the Park many years ago.
