Pease Park (officially Pease District Park) is a public park in central Austin, Texas.
Open from early morning until 10:00 PM, the park is frequented by University of Texas at Austin students and disc golf enthusiasts. Every spring, it plays host to the annual Eeyore's Birthday Party celebration, a favorite event for Austin's hippie subculture dating back to the 1960s. The park is located at 1100 Kingsbury St. in Austin, Texas.
On January 1, 2011, the park's disc golf course was closed indefinitely due to environmental impact problems.[1]
