The city rule I can cite applies to city parks with more than 25 people. If you are holding the party at home or another private site, check with that location and its owner rather than assuming the park rule applies.
The city's parks page describes the Lakeside Pavilion for groups of 81 to 150, seasonally from about late April through November 1. Confirm availability and whether a character visit is allowed on that date.
Options to discuss with the character you choose might include a greeting line, photos with guests, a short story or game, or a themed group activity. Confirm what is included before you book.
Yes. Ask the venue whether it permits outside entertainers and whether any rules apply to a costumed visit before you book.
Providence has several park venues, and a birthday with a costumed character can work in more than one setting. Before choosing a character or a location, it helps to know which city rules may affect your plans, especially if the party has more than a couple dozen guests.
City of Providence rules say that any group holding an event, program or activity in a city park, or any part of one, with more than 25 people needs a park permit for the entire event. If your party may exceed that number and you are considering a city park, check the permit requirements with the city before you finalize the date. Also ask whether the character visit itself falls under any event definition you should report.

If you plan to hire a professional photographer, the city says a permit is required for commercial photography at park sites, and it lists sweet 15 and 16 photos as examples. If you want professional photos alongside a character visit, ask the city how that rule applies to your party before the day.

For larger gatherings, the city's parks permit page describes the RWP Botanical Center for a seated dinner of up to 80 guests and the Lakeside Pavilion for groups of 81 to 150, available seasonally from about the end of April through November 1. The city also describes using the botanical center for a ceremony and cocktail hour before moving to the pavilion for dinner. Ask whether these venues and time limits suit a visit that includes a character, and confirm the schedule with the city.
