2026 Shelter Reservations Open Jan. 9

2026 reservations for indoor and outdoor park shelters open online on Thursday, Jan. 9, at 8am. BPRD’s reservable shelters include five indoor community centers, 48 outdoor picnic shelters, and a stage and amphitheater.

Online shelter reservations will not be available Jan. 7-8 as we update our system for the 2026 season.

Anyone interested in reserving space for a graduation party, family reunion or other special event in 2026 is encouraged to either update their existing BPRD account or establish a new account well in advance of the Jan. 9 date. If you have not yet used the online reservation system, please review the Reservation Tips provided on our online account help page.

Those without access to a computer, smartphone or other device or those who prefer to make a shelter reservation in person may visit the BPRD administrative office at 400 E. Front Ave. or call 701-222-6455.

On Jan. 9, staff will handle in-person reservations first and then return voicemail messages in the order they are received. Anyone who can make reservations online is encouraged to do so, as this is the fastest option to reserve space for your event.
