The Houston Parks and Recreation Department invites you to plan your next outing to your favorite city park. There are many venues available for rental, whether you are planning a wedding, a family reunion, or a neighborhood event. An area or facility within a park may be reserved for personal use for private events by obtaining a permit through HPARD Permit Office for a fee and refundable deposit.
This permit ensures the exclusive use of the designated space for a designated time frame. Sports field rentals and reservations, with all the amenities, are also available year round at nominal fees for weekdays and weekends.
When planning your event, it is important to contact the Permits Office as early as possible for the most current information on the park or facility of your choice. The Permit Office can be reached at (713) 845-1003. For ballfield reservations call (713) 845-1206 or (713) 845-1218.
For information on large events contact the Mayor's Office of Special Events. They can also be reached by phone at (713) 247-3500.
Opportunities for individual and corporate involvement in volunteer events come up throughout the year, and you can check out what's coming up by visiting our volunteer page.
