All Council's parks, reserves and shelters may be used by the public free of charge.
A booking will secure an area for events including weddings, family reunions, sporting events, company picnics, fundraising events, markets and carnivals, and is required if professional catering, amusement rides or structures such as jumping castles are used.
Park bookings are essential, if the number of people attending your event is over 200 for larger community and commercial events.
When booking our parks, reserves or shelters you must comply with Council's terms and conditions.
To find our more about our parks facilities you can search our venues.
