Fairmount Park est un système de parcs municipaux situé à Philadelphie aux États-Unis. Il est géré par la Fairmount Park Commission.

On y trouve également le plus ancien zoo du pays, un arboretum, le centre d'horticulture de la ville, le Memorial Hall et des dizaines de statues. Il est surtout connu pour le principal musée de la ville, le Philadelphia Museum of Art. Il fut inscrit sur le National Register of Historic Places en 1972.
