City of San Antonio Park Hours

Please note that City parks are open from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. unless exempted under the park curfew ordinance passed by City Council in June 2000. The curfew does not apply to the River Walk, Alamo Plaza, La Villita, Market Square, HemisFair Park and Woodlawn Lake Park. Exceptions may be made for special events through the permit process. Call 207-7275 or one of the community link centers for more information on special events and curfew exceptions.

Security Deposits

In addition to the permit fee, community center rentals, mass picnic facility rentals and park rentals for special events are subject to a security deposit. For community centers, that deposit is $50 for a non special event rental and $100 for a special event. The deposit varies for the other two categories, based on number of people expected to attend.

The deposit will be refunded if the site is left clean, in good order, and with no damage or theft of city property. The person renting the facility can pick up the refund after three days at the Community Link Service Centers.
