Questions parents ask

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

How far ahead should I book a Portland park for a party?

For many venues on specific dates, reservations are needed months in advance. Contact the city's reservations team early to learn what is available for your date.

What should I ask the park office before the event?

Ask whether your plans include music, a stage, tents, canopies, fencing or other equipment, and ask about noise limits, bathroom closures and any application deadlines for the park you choose.

Do I need any approvals besides the park reservation?

Possibly. Some events require sign-offs or permits from other city agencies or bureaus, so ask about this early in your planning.

Can I ask whether outside entertainers are allowed?

Yes, it is a good question to bring to the park office. Confirm the rules for your specific venue before you finalize your character booking.

Planning a character visit in Portland

Start the reservation early

Many Portland Parks & Recreation venues for specific dates need reservations months in advance, so it is wise to look at the calendar as soon as you pick a date. The city's reservations and payments team can share the most current information about the park you have in mind. Call them early so you are not choosing from what is left.

Ask about the setup

Think through what your party will need beyond the entertainer. Will there be music, a stage, tents, canopies, fencing or other equipment? Your answers shape what steps you must take before a permit can be issued. Staff can also tell you about construction schedules, bathroom closures and noise limits for the park you choose.

Confirm other approvals

Some events need sign-offs or permits from other city agencies or bureaus, and the applicant is responsible for securing them. Ask early whether anything beyond the park reservation applies to your gathering, especially if you plan extra equipment.
