Events in Tinley Park-Park District parks require Park District permits. Applications cover facility reservations, athletic field use, pavilion rentals, and special events with attendance, insurance, and cleanup requirements.
The Tinley Park-Park District issues permits for events in its parks, including picnic pavilion reservations, athletic field use, tournaments, festivals, weddings, and community events. Applications are submitted through the Park District administrative office, typically several weeks in advance. Requirements depend on scale and may include proof of liability insurance naming the Park District as additional insured, cleanup deposits, alcohol approval (where allowed), amplified sound approval, and port-a-john provisions for large events. The Village of Tinley Park coordinates with the Park District for events requiring street closures or police support. Some parks have special rules — Centennial Park, Vogt Visual Arts Center, and large community parks receive heavier event use. Commercial events (fee-charging) typically have higher requirements and fees.
Event without permit: $250-$1,000 plus cleanup costs. Damage to park property: full restoration costs billed to permittee.
