What Makes Bonelli Park Ideal for My Company Picnic?
With its open, manicured lawns, ample shade, and scenic views, it’s easy to see why Bonelli Park is a prime company picnic spot in LA. It offers us plenty of room to set up inflatables, games, and activities galore, including a wide open stretch where we’re able to set up a zipline! This park also comes packed with loads of experiences well-suited for an unforgettable excursion or picnic, whether it’s the nearby lake with its water activities or the onsite trails where you can host a scavenger hunt or bike ride. On the picnic side of the park is a large, expansive area, one which we can deck out with catering, performers, and plenty of entertainment for your guests. There’s plenty of opportunity in Bonelli Park, making it an extremely prized choice for LA company picnics.
Examples from Past Events
Bonelli Park is perfect for picnics with loads of entertaining activities and field games, like this Olympics themed company picnic hosted in the park. So, too, is it optimal for picnics with performing arts like AltaMed’s Dia de Muertos picnic in Bonelli Park. Both of these company picnics were large groups, with the first sitting at 5,300 guests and the second sitting at 7,000. This park can truly hold a large group, and plenty of entertainment as well!
What to Know:
When deciding on a company picnic location, it’s important to keep logistics in mind. Whether it’s permits, rules, and regulations or ADA accommodations, our team is well-versed in the intricacies of event planning. We’ve worked many times hosting events at Bonelli Park, and are able to tell you exactly how to make the most out of this amazing location. Let’s get in to a few things to note when planning your corporate picnic here.
Permits
Bonelli Park gives permissions for many details in picnic planning on its grounds, including amplified sound, catering, and inflatables. However, permits are required for each thing, and alcohol is not permitted in the park. We’ve developed an amazing relationship to management at Bonelli Park, having planned countless company picnics here. We can act as a liaison between you and park management, gathering all permits and ensuring everything goes smoothly.
Parking
While there is parking onsite at Bonelli Park, if you’re hosting a large picnic, you may find yourself requiring more spaces. Not to worry; we’ve developed an arrangement for offsite parking for any company picnic we plan here. We provide shuttle services running throughout the course of the event, so your team and their loved ones can come and go as they please.
Practicalities
While Bonelli Park certainly has the open space necessary for a huge company picnic, we may have to bring in some extra accommodations for a large group. For a large-scale picnic, we’re at the ready to bring in extra restrooms and hand washing stations. But what about accessibility at the park? When thinking of ADA accessibility, there’s plenty of paved area, and we can bring in mats for the grassy stretches to make them accessible.
Popularity
Bonelli Park is one of the most popular company picnic spots in LA, and for good reason! This park is truly ideal for a company picnic, especially a large group. However, this means you need to book your picnic well in advance to ensure the park will be available on your chosen date. If you’re on a time crunch, though, and need a location urgently, we’d like to recommend another two nearby locations: The Santa Fe Recreation Area and Schabarum Park. These locations are well-suited for a company picnic in the same way as Bonelli Park, with plenty of open space ideal for large groups.
Experiences at Bonelli Park Include:
- Kayaking
- Horseback Riding
- Nature Walks (perfect for scavenger hunts!)
- Open Areas for Field Games & Team Building Games
- Water-Related Activities on the Lake
- Nearby Golf Course
- Biking Trails
