Host Your Next Outdoor Gathering at Our Place!

Looking for a fun and unique location to hold an outdoor get-together? Meridian’s City parks have picnic shelters in a variety of sizes ideal for casual meetings and celebrations for groups of up to 400 people!

While nearly all of Meridian parks have individual picnic tables you can use for free on a first-come, first-served basis for impromptu picnics, you will need to make a pre-paid reservation in advance if you wish to utilize one of our covered picnic shelters and its amenities on a specific date and time for a gathering or special event.

During 2023, picnic shelter reservations will be reservable from April 1 October 15.

You can research your options, check availability, book and pay for a shelter reservation online at meridiancity.org/parks at any time or with the assistance of our staff via telephone or an in-person visit to the 2nd floor of Meridian City Hall during our regular weekday business hours, which exclude major holidays.

All of our picnic shelters feature a shade covering, picnic tables, trash receptacles, charcoal or gas grill, electricity, and nearby restroom facilities. Additional field space or sports fields may also be available to rent.

Park visitors are expected to adhere to all Park Use Policies and may be required to purchase additional permits when applicable.
