If you’re looking for something a little more upscale or weatherproof, Hyatt Regency Lake Washington in nearby Renton is a fantastic venue for indoor events,especiallywhen paired with balloon décor or a bubble house setup. Explore the hotel venue here.
Planning a Party at a Bellevue Park? Here’s What to Know
Public parks in Bellevue are a beautiful option for outdoor celebrations — but they come with rules, lead times, and restrictions (especially for inflatables). We’ve worked across nearly every reservable park in the city, and here’s what you need to know if you’re thinking about a park party this season:
Kelsey Creek Farm
This nature-meets-play favorite offers grassy picnic areas surrounded by trees and farm animals. It’s a perfect backdrop for toddler soft play zones and balloon garlands. Picnic shelters are reservable, and the setting is peaceful but fun.

Wilburton Hill Park
One of Bellevue’s largest parks, Wilburton is ideal for bigger gatherings. The open space near the reservable shelter is great for bounce houses or a bubble house — just make sure you submit paperwork early for city approval.

Crossroads Park
A family hotspot with a seasonal spray park, shaded shelters, and large play areas. It’s especially great for soft play setups, toddler parties, and balloon décor. Bounce houses may be limited depending on the surface.

Robinswood Community Park
A flexible, centrally located park with picnic shelters and lots of green space. Families love it for birthdays with custom balloon installs, and we’ve done successful soft play zones here too.

Newcastle Beach Park
This large lakeside park is a summer favorite — but with a caveat. While beach access is great for guests, we don’t recommend setting up near the water or splash areas. Instead, stick to the upper lawn and request placement approval in advance.

⚠️ Not All Parks Allow Rentals
To avoid confusion: several Bellevue parks do not allow event rentals, large group reservations, or vendor setups. These include:
- Meydenbauer Bay Park
- Enatai Beach Park (currently closed for construction)
- Newport Hills Woodlawn Park
- Bridle Trails Valley Creek Park
- Surrey Downs Park
These are drop-in parks only — not suitable for bounce houses, soft play, or formal party setups.

What to Know About Permits & Insurance
The City of Bellevue has strict guidelines for inflatables — especially when placed indoors or under covered areas. Bounce houses and bubble houses are allowed at most outdoor parks with advance approval and require:
- A Certificate of Insurance (COI) with at least $1M in general liability
- Naming the City of Bellevue as additional insured
- Submitting paperwork typically 3 weeks before your event
We take care of this for you.
Party Baby Seattle is fully licensed and insured, and we provide all required documentation for city permits — so you can focus on the fun.
Bellevue’s Favorite: The Bubble House
If you’re looking for a show-stopper that doubles as a photo moment and a play area, the bubble house is the one. Parents love the clean look, and kids love the giant, balloon-filled dome. We’ve set up our clear bubble houses in parks, driveways, and venues all over Bellevue — and they’re always a hit.
Whether paired with a bounce house or balloon backdrop, the bubble house creates that “wow” factor guests won’t stop talking about.

FAQ: Bellevue Party Rentals
Can I have a bounce house at a Bellevue park?
Yes, but only at certain parks that allow permitted events with vendor setups. You’ll need to reserve a shelter and submit paperwork — including a Certificate of Insurance (COI) naming the City of Bellevue. Parks like Kelsey Creek, Wilburton Hill, and Robinswood are great options. We handle all insurance and permitting for you.
Do you deliver bounce houses and soft play to homes in Bellevue?
Absolutely. We frequently deliver to neighborhoods like Somerset, Lakemont, Medina, and Newport Hills. Backyard parties are very popular during the summer, and our team will walk you through what works best for your space.
How early should I book for a summer party?
We recommend booking at least 4–6 weeks in advance, especially for weekend parties between May and September. Bellevue is one of our busiest service areas, and our premium inventory (like the bubble house) tends to book out quickly.
What permits do I need for a party in a Bellevue park?
You’ll need to reserve a park shelter through the City of Bellevue at least 10–30 days in advance, depending on your event type. If you’re using vendors like us for bounce houses or soft play, a Park Special Use Form and proof of insurance are required. We handle this on your behalf.
Can I rent the bubble house in Bellevue?
Yes! Our clear dome-style bubble house is one of our most popular rentals for Bellevue events. It works well in backyards, driveways, or approved park spaces —and it’s especially popular at first birthdays and summer celebrations.
