Parks in East Baton Rouge Parish are run by BREC (the Recreation and Park Commission for the Parish of East Baton Rouge). Under BREC's Park Rules, neighborhood parks close at dark, community parks close at 10:00 p.m., and no activities may be held after 10 p.m. without BREC's prior permission.
BREC, the Recreation and Park Commission for the Parish of East Baton Rouge, operates the parish park system and sets park hours through its Park Rules. Neighborhood parks close at dark, and community parks close at 10:00 p.m. No activities may be held after 10 p.m. without prior permission from the BREC Commission. Being in a park after closing is treated as trespassing and can be enforced by BREC Park Rangers and law enforcement. Separately, the City-Parish Code of Ordinances (Section 13:1056) sets a juvenile curfew for minors on public streets and places, which is distinct from park hours. Confirm hours for a specific facility, as some BREC facilities post their own schedules.
Remaining in a BREC park after its posted closing time is treated as after-hours trespass and may result in citation or removal by BREC Park Rangers or law enforcement.
