Check with the specific venue first. Some city locations prohibit entertainers, so confirm the rule for the exact place you plan to use before booking a character.
City reservation requests can be submitted online at least 30 days before the event. Plan earlier if you want a weekend date or a popular space.
Our character visits start at one hour, and longer visits are booked in 30-minute increments, such as one and a half, two or two and a half hours.
No. Squirrel Square is run by the County of Orange, so its rules differ from the City of Irvine's and should be confirmed with the county directly.
Irvine has several public spaces that families use for birthdays, and each one has its own rules about who may bring in outside entertainment. Start by choosing the character and the kind of party you want, then check the specific venue before you commit. The notes below cover what the city's own pages say, and what to confirm with each place.
Pick the character first, since that choice shapes the room, the activities and how long the visit should run. Our character visits start at one hour, and longer visits are booked in 30-minute steps, so one and a half, two or two and a half hours are all options. Think about how many children will attend and how much time they need to move around, sit down and enjoy the character. Those details help you decide whether a shorter or longer booking fits your party.
The City of Irvine offers birthday pool packages at its aquatics centers, including Northwood High School Aquatics Center and William Woollet Jr. Aquatics Center. Those packages include pool time, a water slide, certified lifeguards and reserved outdoor space. Reservation requests can be submitted online at least 30 days before the event, and the facility reservation offices keep weekday and Friday hours. Ask the staff at the center you are considering whether a costumed character can join the party and whether any rules limit outside entertainers.

Los Olivos Community Center is a multi-use facility with a multipurpose room, a warming kitchen, patio space, and outdoor and playground amenities. The park area picnic tables are first-come, first-served for groups of 49 or fewer and cannot be reserved. The city's park rules state that vendors, including entertainers, are not permitted, so a costumed character would not be allowed there. Choose a different venue if a character is central to your plan.

Squirrel Square at Irvine Regional Park sits near the lake and boathouse and has a maximum capacity of 200 people. Because it is run by the County of Orange rather than the City of Irvine, its rules are separate from the city's, so confirm directly with the county whether a costumed character may attend. Ask about the reservation process and any restrictions on outside entertainment before you book.

Ask whether the venue allows outside entertainers, and whether a written rule or permit is needed. Confirm the reservation deadline, whether the space is indoors or outdoors, and how many guests it can hold. If the party includes an athletic field, the city's field rental information may apply, so review it before deciding. Also ask whether a shaded or indoor area is available for activities in case the weather changes.
