- The permit for the event does not give you exclusive use of the park. You may have to share the park and its facilities with others. We will do our best to stop others from organising an event at the same time in the same park.
- Please leave the park clean and tidy after the event and put your rubbish in the bins provided. You will need to take away any excess rubbish that does not fit in the bins provided.
- You can use signs or decorations if they are free-standing or taped to the trees or park furniture. You must not use nails, staples or similar fasteners to attach decorations or signs. Please remove all signs and decorations at the end of the event.

To help protect our parks and ensure they remain beautiful, safe, and accessible for everyone, a bond may be required for your event. This refundable bond acts as a safeguard against potential damage or non-compliance and is assessed based on a range of risk factors, including but not limited to:
- Vehicle Access - Type and number of vehicles entering the park
- Access Point Distance - Proximity of access points to the event site
- Number of Crossings - Frequency and location of vehicle or footpath crossings
- Amusements and Structures - Presence of rides, marquees, stages, or other installations
- Weather Conditions - Forecasted or actual weather during the event
- Ground Conditions - Soil stability, turf health, and general wear risk
- Litter and Waste Management - Plans for rubbish disposal and cleanliness
- Parks Asset Protection - Measures to safeguard park infrastructure and natural features
- Previous Compliance - History of organiser’s adherence to park guidelines
- Park Profile - Sensitivity and usage level of the specific park location
After your event, our park rangers will conduct an inspection of the site. If the park is left in a satisfactory condition, your bond will be refunded in full.
Tip for Organisers
We strongly encourage you to conduct your own pre- and post-event checks and take clear photos of the site. This helps ensure transparency and fairness in the bond assessment process.
Thank you for helping us keep our parks pristine and enjoyable for all!
