Rentals & Reservations

Want to rent one of our community centers or other facilities? Head on over to our Forms page to check out the fee schedules, forms, and other information needed to start your reservation.

Most event planners suggest reserving a facility at least six months to a year in advance of an event in order to reserve the best dates and times. For example, ball fields are seasonally in heavy use. Facility use may be restricted and a certificate of liability insurance is required for all rental reservations. Refundable deposit and fees are due one month prior to the scheduled date and are based upon the time and facility rented. We look forward to serving you.

A facility use permit and Special Event Permit are required for all groups (20 to 500 persons) who wish to reserve a park picnic space. Reservations are made on a first-come first-serve basis. For information, call Registration at 510-620-6793.

For East Bay Regional Parks District reservations for group picnics of 20-500 persons and overnight camping, call 1-888-327-2757, option 2.
