The Burnside Skatepark is a DIY concrete skatepark located in Portland, Oregon, United States.

The skatepark is free-admission and requires no helmet, protective knee-pads, or elbow-pads. The skatepark receives no funding from the city of Portland. The park is regarded as an on-going project that is funded by donations.
