Events on Reserves
Prior written permission is required to hold weddings, commercial filming and photography, Christmas functions, large social gatherings, events and company picnics on City of Stirling reserves. Booking a reserve ensures that events do not clash, appropriate permissions are obtained, and site meetings can be arranged where neccessary.
Fees apply and approval is granted on an individual basis. Items such as bouncy castles and party ponies need express approval to be brought on to reserves. Keys to the toilets or the access chain may accompany a booking if approval is granted.
As our reserves are public places we cannot grant exclusive use of any part of a reserve or allow any part to be cordoned off. Casual spectators and members of the public cannot be excluded from using a reserve. Alcohol is not permitted on the City's parks and reserves.
If you wish to hold a function within a club room on a reserve, you will need to contact the club - information and contact details can be found on the Community Information database.
