Questions parents ask

Still wondering? Call (866) 306-1384 and talk to a person.

Can I book a character visit at any Houston park?

Not necessarily. Park rules differ between the City of Houston and Harris County, and each space has its own reservation process. Confirm with the specific park whether outside entertainers are allowed before you finalize the date.

How far in advance should I reserve a Harris County precinct park?

Harris County Precinct 4 accepts requested dates no sooner than seven days and no further than 45 days in advance. Plan within that window.

Do community centers host children's parties?

The City of Houston describes its community centers as suitable for gatherings such as family reunions and parties, for a nominal rental fee. Ask the center about the room, the fee and whether a character visit can take place there.

Is a covered pavilion good shelter if it storms?

No. A covered picnic pavilion may keep off light rain, but it is not a safe place to shelter from lightning. Plan a backup indoor space for severe weather.

Character parties in Houston

Houston is a large city, so the right venue for a character party depends on the neighborhood, the number of guests and how much outdoor space you want. The facts below cover the City of Houston and Harris County systems. Before you settle on a spot, confirm the rules for your specific location, since city and county parks follow different reservation practices.

Planning a character visit in Houston

City of Houston parks

The Houston Parks and Recreation Department operates a large network of parks across the city. Private events can be planned in park spaces by submitting a reservation request online through the department's permits page. When you contact the park, ask whether outside entertainers such as a costumed character are allowed in the space you choose, and whether any extra permit is needed for a visit like this.

Community centers for indoor gatherings

If you want an indoor room with a predictable setup, a community center may suit a children's party. The city describes its centers as suitable for special gatherings such as family reunions and parties, for a nominal rental fee. The Alief Community Center on Bellaire Boulevard is one example in Houston. Ask the center what rooms are available for your date, what the fee covers, and whether a character visit can be arranged in that room.

Harris County precinct parks

Parks run by Harris County Precinct 4 are a separate system from city parks. Their reservations can be requested only within a set window: no sooner than seven days and no further than 45 days ahead. Several precinct parks, including Alief Amity Park, Bayland Park, Bear Creek Pioneers Park and George Bush Park, require a reservation for their covered picnic pavilions. Ask about the pavilion rules and whether a character visit fits within them.

Questions to ask before you book

Start with the location: city park, community center or county precinct park. Then ask about the reservation window, the fee, the size of the space and whether outside entertainers are permitted. For an outdoor party, also ask what backup space is available if the weather changes, and keep in mind that an open pavilion is not a lightning shelter.
