Hire a local park for an event

If you are thinking about planning an event in a beautifully maintained outdoor setting, look no further than Lichfield District’s parks and open spaces, which includes Beacon Park & Stowe Fields.

We welcome a range of events - from music festivals, circuses and sports galas, through to family fun days, charity fun runs and more. If you want to hire a pitch for a sports match, find out about hiring a pitch. 

This guide gives you advice about how to book one of our parks, what considerations to make, and how to deliver your event in a safe way.

If your event will exceed 500 attendees, require road closures, will include the sale of food and drink (including alcohol) and/or include entertainment to the public, you will need to first express an interest in hosting an event through the events and festivals process before we can let you know whether or not your event can be accommodated.

We also recommend you read our park hire terms and conditions before you apply to hire our parks, as there maybe some key areas that will have an impact on your ideas for your event.
