Check with the parks office and the specific site before booking. Ask whether outside entertainers are allowed in the area you reserve, and whether your character's music will need a permit.
Our character visits start at one hour, and longer visits are booked in 30-minute increments. Within that hour, the entertainer can plan active segments and breaks to suit the group.
Glass is prohibited in Richmond city parks, so plan party drinks and snacks in plastic or other non-glass containers.
Ask about reservation timing, whether the space allows outside entertainment, power or sound needs, parking, and whether the area is open for your full visit window.
Richmond has several city parks and recreation facilities that families often consider for birthday gatherings. Before booking a character, it helps to know which kinds of spaces the city lists and what rules apply in parks, so you can ask the right questions of the venue you choose.
The City of Richmond lists picnic shelters as open for reservation, and the city asks that they be booked in advance by phone with its parks office. Ask the venue to confirm that a visiting costumed entertainer may use the shelter during your reserved time, and whether electricity or a power source is available if your character needs one for music.

Where alcohol is involved, the city lists only a few locations where it is permitted, including Brown's Island, Festival Park, Kanawha Plaza and Pine Camp. Most children's parties will not need this, but it is worth knowing when comparing spaces with an adult gathering. Community and recreation centers may also be rented for meetings and events, and non-city residents may face an additional 30 percent charge for those rentals.
