Lansdowne Park is a fairground and multi-purpose sport and entertainment facility in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is located along Bank Street and adjacent to the Rideau Canal, in Ottawa's The Glebe neighbourhood.

Lansdowne Park contains Frank Clair Stadium, the Civic Centre arena, the Aberdeen Pavilion exhibition hall, and a number of other exhibition buildings. The Park has hosted Ottawa's annual Central Canada Exhibition since 1888.

The Exhibition turned over operation of the Park to the City of Ottawa on May 1, 1973.
