Events in parks and open spaces
Book an event
We recognise the value and benefit that a safe and well managed outdoor events programme can offer people living, working and visiting the borough. However, we will also have to assess your application while considering the impact of your event on park users, local residents, businesses, stakeholders and the environment.
Please note: there may be a charge for holding an event at any of our parks which covers the costs of administration and services relating to the event. Each event is priced on application.
A copy of your public liability insurance may be required if your event is open to the public. This should be uploaded as an attachment to your booking request.
We need at least three weeks notice to consider an event request and bookings should be made with as much notice as possible.
Once you have submitted your event booking, the details and documents will be assessed by an officer who will approve your booking or contact you if further information is required.
If you would like to make a recurring booking, please select this option on the form and input each date and time individually. You can add a maximum of 10 dates to one booking form.
If you are wanting to hold a large scale event, we would advise that you contact us to discuss as early as possible. Larger events may require for you to work with our Safety Advisory Group and this process can take up to six months.
