Character parties in Norfolk

Norfolk offers several city-run places a parent might consider for a birthday gathering, from picnic shelters in its parks to indoor rooms at community facilities. Before you pick a character, it helps to know what kind of space you are working with, since a park shelter and an indoor room suggest very different party plans.

Planning a character visit in Norfolk

Choosing a park shelter in the city

Norfolk's city parks rent out picnic shelters to the public. At Lakewood Park, 1612 Willow Wood Dr., there are three shelters, each with a capacity of 100 and one grill. Lafayette Park, 3500 Granby St., has two shelters that hold 100 each and a smaller third shelter for 20. Northside Park, 8445 Tidewater Dr., has a shelter for 50 with an attached restroom and a grill. Shelter size matters most once you know your guest count, so compare capacity first and then think about whether you want a restroom or grill nearby.

Indoor rooms and community centers

If a covered or indoor setting suits your guests better, Norfolk's community centers are worth a look. Lambert's Point Community Center is at 1251 W. 42nd Street, and Norview Community Center is at 6380 Sewells Point Road. Norview's facilities include an art room, dance studio, gym, multipurpose room, kitchen, and an outdoor water splash pad and playground. Meeting rooms at the Southside Aquatics Center are open by appointment only, and reservations are required, so plan that early if you are considering it.

Questions to ask before you book

Ask the facility whether a costumed entertainer may perform there, since outside entertainment rules vary by place and you should not assume a yes. Confirm the start time, end time, and who handles setup. If you plan to use a park, ask about permit requirements for your group size and whether the shelter is free at your date and time.
