Picnic Area Reservations

Reserved Areas
The City of Fremont has many fee-based picnic sites. These sites include barbecue grills and picnic tables. Each site holds a different number of people (between 20 - 350) depending on the location. See below to clarify size, fees and location of sites.

All City of Fremont picnic tables, picnic areas, and barbecues will re-opened by April 1, 2021. Please note that picnic tables are not sanitized and should be used at your own discretion. Reservations for Central Park are available for advanced booking for small private gatherings among no more than three households. Applications can be submitted by email/mail starting Monday, March 22, 2021. At this time, Community Park picnic tabes are ONLY available for drop-in/first-come, first-serve use.
