Bosses have announced the move on World No Tobacco Day - in a drive to protect residents and visitors from the serious and life-threatening illnesses caused by smoking.
The six-and-a-half acre park, which opened last September, will become the most notable smoke-free space in the city centre to 'ban' lighting up.
The new rules, from June 26, will also help protect wildlife.
Park-users who smoke will be asked to extinguish their cigarettes or cigars, and if they refuse to do so, will be asked to leave. However, no fines will be issued for people who don't abide by the new rules, as the change is not a law that can be enforced by public officials.
