Park District Contracted Vendors: The Fargo Park District has contracts with vendors in the parks that operate outside of special events. These contracts may limit the sales and consumption of food and beverage at reserved events. These agreements may also limit what is available to some events that want to provide food and beverages that will be available but not sold.
Events held in Fargo Parks must request permission and pay fees for any activity that includes sales of food, beverage or merchandise. If admission, food and/or merchandise sales are part of a Special Event, the Park District will request fees/commissions from the Special Event. A payment schedule will be part of the Facility Use Agreement.
Events have special activities that require special permission. Listed below are some of the most common applications. Application processes, instructions and deadlines vary. Be sure to research all of them ahead of your event.
To better serve your request, the Applicant is encouraged to contact the Fargo Park District as early as possible about planning your event in the parks. The minimum time needed to begin the process is 30 days before the event date.
The Fargo Park District prides itself in having top notch facilities that people want to use. We encourage the public to plan events at our venues.
