Nine steps turn an idea into a finished park. This is the same roadmap communities across Norway have followed to bring a real parkour park to their town. Get a park where you train.
This guide is for the athletes, parents, and local supporters who want a real parkour park in their town. It lays out the nine steps that take you from a group chat to a finished installation, and it answers the questions your city council will ask along the way. Exeo FlowParks designs, delivers, and installs parkour and calisthenics parks. Your job is to build the local case. We can help with the rest.
Gather practitioners, parents, and supporters. Start a group so people can connect and coordinate, and collect the personal stories that show why a park would matter here.
Put together a simple, professional pitch (a PDF or short slideshow) with your vision, design ideas, and the community benefits. This becomes your key tool when you reach out to officials and partners.
Go public and bring more people on board, including those who will never train at the park but see its value. Start a "We want a parkour park in [your city]" page, post regularly, and gather signatures. A few hundred followers means a lot to a city council.
Send your presentation to officials, request meetings, and show up at community gatherings. Contact several departments to reach the right person, and look at partners like sports clubs, non-profits, and parallel projects in calisthenics, skating, or climbing.
Collect input from local athletes and children so the park reflects how people will actually use it. Early involvement builds ownership and makes your proposal far stronger.
Organise a free event to show what parkour brings to a place. Invite officials, and document it with photos and video to demonstrate real demand and energy.
Reach out to local newspapers, radio, and social channels. Share community stories, testimonials, and examples of successful parks elsewhere to build wider support.
Look past the city budget. Grants, partnerships with schools or clubs, folkehelse and egenorganisert-aktivitet funding, crowdfunding, and local private-sector partners all help. We can advise on funding and applications.
Keep the energy up with regular events, updates, and content. Show officials and residents that the community is in this for the long term, well before the park opens.
Tell us your town, your group, and roughly the site you have in mind. We'll help you build the case and design a park that fits. We work with Norwegian municipalities, schools, and sports clubs, and we know the procurement process.
