Park and Private Events

Book a Park

All City parks are open for public use and enjoyment. Although not required, you can secure a spot for a private event at popular parks by booking it in advance.

Please note booked outdoor spaces are not monitored.

You can reserve a park online for one-time private events such as birthdays, graduations, weddings, reunions, etc. If you are booking a larger (over 500 people) event, an event for next year, or a multi-day event (or if the park you are requesting is not listed among the form options), please do one of the following:

  • Submit a regular park booking request.
  • Email parkbookings@princegeorge.ca
  • Call 311 and ask to speak to Park Bookings.


Book a Private Event

Make a Regular Booking


Permits

Contact City Hall to apply for all necessary outdoor wedding permits. Events seeking to use large speakers to amplify voice or music will need an approved noise permit. The use of a small portable stereo or microphone for an officiate does not require a permit.

  • Submit a Noise Permit application form

Be sure to also ask about rules regarding trash removal, available electricity, park etiquette, and parking.

Setup and Decorations

Please note that event setup and take-down - including clean-up - times must be completed within the time allotted by the Park Use application.

Alcohol consumption is not permitted in City parks. Food may be cooked on propane barbecues, but make sure not to place barbecues directly on picnic tables or other structures, as doing so may damage surfaces. Weddings may be catered, but caterers must not solicit or advertise business while on site and may only serve event guests.
