Can I bring a bounce house or water amusement to a City park?

Bounce houses and water amusements require a park permit with a $50 plus tax processing fee. Permit application can be found in the Forms section of our website. Bounce houses and water amusements are only allowed at Riverside Park, MacWilliams Park or Charles Park on a first-come/first-serve basis and can only be set-up on the grass for a maximum 4 hour time period. An additional $50 electric fee is required along with a refundable $50 electrical key deposit. Please note that it may take two weeks or more for the refund to be processed. Water amusements require a $65 water fee. These fees are not taxed.


Be aware that there may be other activities at the park. You can call the Recreation Department at 772567-2144 to check for conflicting public events. The bounce house/water amusement vendor must provide the Recreation Department with a current “Certificate of Liability Insurance” naming the City of Vero Beach as additionally insured with the date and location of your event listed, and the insurance endorsement must be provided to us prior to your event. Without the proper paperwork and insurance, bounce houses/water amusements are not allowed in the parks.
