Picnic Tables
The entire picnic table area consists of four long concrete tables with benches along each side. Each table is 50 feet long and is available for your next party or team gathering. Located directly southeast of the play scapes, swings, and interactive water feature, the picnic tables will provide you with a casual, comfortable setting for your family-friendly gathering. This space is almost fully shaded.

Additional information:
The picnic tables are the most widely used amenity space by the public.
Picnic table reservations were offered at $65 per reservation prior to the revitalization of Kingsbury Commons. The Conservancy has reduced that rate to ensure that more members of the general public have access to renting them.
The maximum number of days that all four picnic tables may be reserved as a block is limited to 8 days per year. Otherwise, only three of the four picnic tables will be reserved at any given
time. This leaves at least one picnic table open to the public on a first come first serve basis.
PICNIC TABLE RULES
Other park visitors will have reserved tables as well. If you run into a conflict, please calmly let others know that you have officially reserved your set of tables through Pease Park Conservancy.
Unless there is a burn ban, the grills take charcoal briquettes and they work great. Feel free to use them and please confirm they are completely out before you leave. Outside grills, pits, etc. are not allowed at the park.
You MUST carry out your trash and recycling. We don't have the capacity to take on the amount of trash humans are producing at birthday parties. So to the best of your ability, carry your trash home and dispose of it there. Or you can take your trash/recycling to our dumpsters located in the parking lot at Kingsbury Street & Parkway.
Absolutely NO: confetti, silly string, glass (including decor), paint (even if water based), water balloons, firecrackers and fireworks.
Per city ordinance, Petting zoos are not allowed on park grounds.
Alcohol MUST be canned and remain inside the perimeter of the picnic table area - you may not roam the park with alcohol.
Encourage guests to bring their own water bottles, as we have a cold water filling station in the common vanity of the bathrooms.
Please do not hang anything from the string lights and anything you hang needs to be removed and carried out.
Snoride is the official snow cone vendor of Pease Park Conservancy. We will not permit any other snow cone vendors in Pease Park at this time. They offer wonderful birthday party packages. More information on Snoride's birthday party packages can be found below.
If you are planning a gathering at the picnic tables, please reserve a table(s) in advance to ensure you will have it for your event. Without a reservation, any table that is not otherwise reserved by another party may be used on a first come first serve basis.
