The Horniman Circle gardens are laid out with walkways and used as a playground by kids. People also access the garden for exercising early in the morning. The Circle Garden has been repurposed by the Kala Ghoda Association and every year, since 1999, the garden has been used as a venue for events during the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival.
Ongoing restoration work at the water fountain at Horniman Circle Garden. Earlier, the garden used to house statues of British administrators and military heroes like Richard Wellesley, 1st Marquess Wellesley, and Charles Cornwallis, 1st Marquess Cornwallis which were later removed and relocated to the Veermata Jijamata Udyaan in Byculla.
