Section 2: Event type and booking location

A public event is one that anyone may attend and it may be a ticketed or a free event.

A private event has limited attendance that the public may not attend such as a corporate event, club event, wedding or family picnic.

Choose the event type that matches your audience so we can direct your request to the correct team to support you.

Picnic space for Waterloo Park can be booked on our ActiveWaterloo facility rentals site. You can select a site and book the space yourself with an ActiveWaterloo acount.
