This is a list of Birmingham parks, made up of those dedicated as public parks by the Birmingham City Council. Once a park is dedicated, the land can no longer be sold or the space used for any other purpose unless approved in a voter referendum. Action by the council requires a survey of the proposed park land along with other documentation. Except for some parks which operate under agreement with independent boards or organizations, the parks are managed by the Birmingham Park and Recreation Board and maintained by the Birmingham Department of Public Works.

Numerous Birmingham parks were rededicated under an amended ordinance in 2000. The new ordinance required property surveys, deeds, and council records to be kept on file in the City Clerk's office.
