Are you planning to stage or promote an event? Why not consider doing it in a park or open space? The borough has many beautiful outdoor places that are ideal for hosting sporting and community events.
Which parks can you hire?
All council-managed parks and open spaces are available for hire.
For Greenwich Park events, contact Royal Parks. Greenwich Park is a Royal Park and not the responsibility of the Royal Borough of Greenwich.
Any person, group or organisation can apply to stage an event in a park or open space.
For some community events, it's free to hire a park or open space.
For commercial hires, such as fairs, a fee applies - for more information contact the Events team.
We don't accept applications for event parking as parking is only allowed within car parks.
We don't grant formal permission for private events within our parks such as birthday parties or weddings. However you're welcome to use the space informally to have a gathering such as a picnic.
Circuses are only considered for Blackheath.
Our online form makes it quick and easy to tell us about your event. You can tell us about your event and provide information supporting your request.
We'll let you know our decision as soon as possible. How long this takes depends on the availability of the venue and the complexity of your request.
We may also need to contact you for further details of your event.
