Milliken Park is our best first call for a large family picnic. It has three picnic shelters, three reservable picnic sites, a washroom, four playgrounds and a splash pad in the City of Toronto's current facility record. Thomson Memorial Park has even more shelter choices. Sir Casimir Gzowski Park is better for a smaller lakefront day.
High Park is last because it is the most overrated picnic plan here. The shelters are fine. The logistics are not. Long walks, road rules, confusing site numbers and supply delivery turn a simple gathering into work.
The most important warning is simple. A picnic site is not always a picnic shelter. A site may be open grass and tables. Ask for the exact site number and make City staff confirm that your reserved site has a roof.
This guide was checked on August 30, 2026. Fees, construction and washroom openings can change.
Our verdict
- Best overall: Milliken Park. Three shelters, a washroom, four playgrounds and a splash pad solve the most family problems in one place.
- Best selection: Thomson Memorial Park. Nine shelters give you the strongest chance of finding a site that fits.
- Best by subway: Christie Pits. Nothing else on this list beats a shelter across from a subway station.
- Best lakefront: Sir Casimir Gzowski Park. It gives you water, a playground and a roof without a ferry.
- Most overrated: High Park. Choose it only when the exact numbered site is worth the extra directions and carrying.
- Skip for a simple event: Centre Island. The ferry turns every cooler, late guest and weather change into another problem.
- Main deal-breaker: A picnic site is not automatically a shelter. Get the roof confirmed in writing.
Quick picks
| Place | Current City listing | Washroom plan | Best for | Main problem |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Milliken Park | 3 shelters, 3 picnic sites | 1 washroom facility | A large Scarborough family picnic | Far from downtown and spread out |
| Thomson Memorial Park | 9 shelters, 6 picnic sites | 2 washroom facilities | The most shelter choice plus a museum and playgrounds | Site numbers and park entrances need a clear map |
| Sir Casimir Gzowski Park | 2 shelters, 2 picnic sites | 1 washroom facility | A lakefront picnic with children | Wind and summer parking pressure |
| Centennial Park Etobicoke | 5 shelters, 8 picnic sites | 4 washroom facilities | A west-end group that wants many choices | Huge park and active construction areas |
| Rennie Park | 1 shelter, 1 picnic site | 1 washroom facility | A smaller west-end family event | Only one reservable picnic choice |
| Woodbine Beach Park | 2 shelters, 5 picnic sites | Accessible beach washroom building | A beach day with a real roof nearby | Crowds, wind and difficult parking |
| G. Ross Lord Park | 1 shelter, 4 picnic sites | 1 washroom facility | Nature, trails and a quieter North York gathering | No playground in the current City listing |
| Christie Pits Park | 1 shelter, 5 picnic sites | 3 washroom facilities | The easiest shelter by subway | Busy public park with little privacy |
| Sherwood Park | 1 shelter, 2 picnic sites | 1 washroom facility | A smaller Midtown picnic in trees | Ravine slopes, mud and dogs nearby |
| High Park | 5 shelters, 13 picnic sites | 7 washroom facilities | A group willing to plan every detail | The hardest park for meeting, parking and carrying supplies |
The counts above come from the City's live park facility listings. They tell you what the City records inside each park. They do not prove that every picnic site sits under every listed roof.
What a Toronto picnic permit costs in 2026
The City lists a picnic, picnic shelter or other social gathering permit at $112.57 for up to 200 people, before HST. With 13 per cent HST, that base amount is about $127.20.
Insurance may be added. The City lists $33.48 for one to 25 people and $65.88 for 26 to 100 people. Ask for the insurance charge for a larger group. Set-up, clean-up and damage deposit costs may also apply to a bigger event.
The regular picnic season is May through September. The City opened 2026 picnic and barbecue permits on February 13, 2026. Popular Saturday dates can go early.
You need a booking when
- More than 25 people will attend.
- You want to bring your own barbecue, even with a smaller group.
- You need one exact picnic site to be yours.
- Your gathering includes a firepit or another bookable park facility.
A group with fewer than 25 people and no barbecue can use an open area without booking. That does not save the spot. A permit holder gets priority at the reserved site.
You may need a special event booking when
- Alcohol will be sold or served to the public.
- Food will be served to the public.
- You want amplified sound, including speakers or a megaphone.
- You want a tent, fence, stage, inflatable or another structure.
- You need vehicle access for delivery or drop-off inside the park.
- You plan to sell food, drinks, goods or services.
Tell the City the full plan before paying. A basic picnic permit does not grow into a special event permit because the party got bigger later.
1. Milliken Park is our best all-round shelter pick
Milliken Park at 5555 Steeles Avenue East has three picnic shelters and three picnic sites in the City's current record. The official photo set labels Picnic Sites One, Two and Three as shelters. That is clearer proof than a map that only says “picnic area.”
Milliken earns first place for a big family day. The park also lists four playgrounds, a splash pad, one washroom facility and two parking lots. The playground was updated in 2022 with areas for younger and older children, swings and a group swing.
The park is large and the name can cause confusion. The City's booking link still uses “Milliken District Park” in places. Ask for the current letter or number of the shelter, then send a pin and a photo to guests.
Milliken is also one of the City parks where adults age 19 and older may bring and drink their own alcohol under the Alcohol in Parks Program. That does not allow alcohol sales, public service or drinking within two metres of the playground or splash pad. A hosted event may still need more approvals.
Why it earns a place: Three clearly photographed shelters, play choices for different ages, a splash pad and parking.
The problem: It is a long TTC trip from central Toronto. A guest who enters from McCowan Road may still be far from the chosen shelter.
Choose it for: A large Scarborough birthday, reunion or family picnic where children need room to move.
Ask before booking: Which shelter is closest to the open washroom, splash pad and accessible parking on your date?
2. Thomson Memorial Park has the most shelter choice on this list
Thomson Memorial Park at 1005 Brimley Road has nine picnic shelters and six picnic sites in the live City listing. It also has two washroom facilities, two playgrounds, a splash pad, eight parking lots and a designated firepit.
That sounds easy. It is not quite that simple. Nine shelters do not mean six picnic permits cover all nine roofs. Ask which shelter belongs to the exact site you are paying for. The City's own photos show Picnic Site One with a shelter and firepit, Picnic Site Two with a shelter and Picnic Site Six with a shelter.
This park gives a group more to do than eat. The free Scarborough Museum sits inside the park. Wooded paths follow West Highland Creek. The updated playground includes an inclusive swing, accessible benches and accessible picnic tables.
The firepit needs its own booking and rules. Do not assume it is included with a nearby picnic permit. A designated firepit for more than 25 people uses the higher City fee. Insurance also applies.
Why it earns a place: The broadest shelter choice, several washroom and parking options, playgrounds, trails and a free museum.
The problem: The long park shape and several entrances make “meet near the museum” too vague. Some ravine paths are not the same as a smooth accessible route.
Choose it for: A large Scarborough gathering with children, older relatives and people who want a walk after lunch.
Ask before booking: Can staff send the site map and confirm the shelter, closest washroom, firepit distance and step-free route?
3. Sir Casimir Gzowski Park is the best lakefront family choice
Sir Casimir Gzowski Park at 2001 Lake Shore Boulevard West lists two picnic shelters and two picnic sites. The same current record lists a washroom facility, playground, wading pool, three parking lots and ten bike-trail segments.
This is our best scenic pick for a group with children. The lake, Martin Goodman Trail and playground give people something to do without crossing the whole city park. The official City image also shows the washroom building, bike racks and a picnic shelter in the same general area.
The lake is also the biggest drawback. A roof blocks rain from above. It does not block cold wind or rain blowing sideways. Bring clips for a tablecloth and do not hang decorations where the wind can carry them into the lake.
Driving can look easier than it is. Lake Shore traffic and full summer lots can make unloading slow. Cyclists and runners use the waterfront route, so food carts and children should not block the trail.
Why it earns a place: Two real roofs, a washroom, playground and water view in a smaller area than High Park.
The problem: Wind, traffic and crowded summer parking. It can feel cold while inland Toronto still feels warm.
Choose it for: A family picnic that wants a lake view without using the Island ferry.
Ask before booking: Which numbered shelter is closest to the washroom, playground and an accessible parking space?
4. Centennial Park Etobicoke works when a west-end group needs options
Centennial Park Etobicoke has eight bookable picnic areas for the May to September season. The live facility record lists five picnic shelters, four washroom facilities, three playgrounds, one splash pad and 15 parking lots.
Choose Centennial when a west-end group wants several shelter options on one date. The City says a group may permit one picnic site per event per day at Centennial Park. Do not plan to reserve several sites and build one giant private zone.
The park covers 213 hectares. That space is a gift and a problem. There are separate sport hubs, an Olympium, conservatory, BMX centre and many parking lots. Guests can be inside the correct park and still be nowhere near your food.
Construction and openings also matter in 2026. The City's feature page says an enhanced playground, splash pad and washroom building are scheduled to open in fall 2026. Other sport and washroom work continues in phases. Confirm the exact picnic-area route instead of using an old park map.
Why it earns a place: Many picnic choices, several roofs, parking, washrooms and a lot of room away from downtown crowds.
The problem: The park is huge. Construction, FIFA-related work and new facilities can change the best entrance.
Choose it for: An Etobicoke or Mississauga-side family group that will mostly drive.
Ask before booking: Which picnic site has a shelter, which lot should guests use, and which washroom will be open during the permit?
5. Rennie Park is the smaller west-end choice
Rennie Park at 1 Rennie Terrace lists one picnic shelter and one picnic site. It also has one washroom facility, a playground, wading pool, parking lot, ponds, trails and an outdoor rink.
This is a much easier size than High Park. A smaller birthday or family lunch can feel connected instead of spread across several roads. The City's shelter photo shows eight picnic tables under a large roof.
There is only one reservable picnic site, so you have less choice if the date is gone. The park's ponds and wooded edges also mean bugs, wet ground and mud after rain. Pack insect repellent and keep young children close to the water.
The closest subway access is around Runnymede or Jane, followed by a bus or walk. A group carrying coolers should check the route before choosing transit. The one parking lot will not hold every guest at a busy time.
Why it earns a place: One clear shelter, a simple park layout, playground, water play and a neighbourhood feel.
The problem: Only one shelter booking choice. Ponds, damp ground and a smaller parking supply need planning.
Choose it for: A west-end birthday or family meal that does not need a huge park.
Ask before booking: Is the washroom open for the full permit time, and is the path from the lot to the shelter step-free?
6. Woodbine Beach Park is the best beach shelter plan
Woodbine Beach Park at 1675 Lake Shore Boulevard East lists two picnic shelters and five picnic sites. This difference matters. Do not book “Site Five” and assume it has a roof just because another City record calls it Picnic Shelter Five. Make staff match the current permit name to the current structure.
The beach bathing station has accessible washrooms, change rooms, water bottle filling stations, a shower and foot wash. The park also has a playground, two parking lots, beach volleyball, the boardwalk and the Martin Goodman Trail.
Choose Woodbine only when the beach is part of the day. Skip it if privacy, easy parking or protection from cold wind matters more. A shelter does not reserve the sand around it. Other people will walk past, play music and use nearby tables.
Summer parking can be miserable. The 501 Queen streetcar plus a walk is often simpler, but it is not a short carry with a heavy cooler. Plan one legal drop-off or ask guests to bring small parts of the meal.
Why it earns a place: Real shelters, an accessible washroom building, beach, playground and boardwalk.
The problem: Crowds, wind, sand and parking pressure. A sunny downtown forecast can still feel cool at the lake.
Choose it for: A relaxed east-end beach picnic where the park stays public and lively.
Ask before booking: Which of the five picnic sites is one of the two covered shelters, and how far is it from the bathing station?
7. G. Ross Lord Park is best for trails and a quieter North York day
G. Ross Lord Park at 4801 Dufferin Street lists one picnic shelter and four picnic sites. It also has one washroom facility, 11 parking lots, a designated firepit and more than four kilometres of trails.
This is the nature pick. The City describes the trails as fully accessible and groomed for cross-country skiing in winter when weather permits. The park also has sports fields, cricket pitches and a fenced dog area.
There is no playground in the current facility list. That does not make it bad for families, but it does make Milliken, Thomson or Gzowski easier with small children. Four picnic sites also do not mean four roofs. Make staff identify the one shelter.
G. Ross Lord Park is in the Alcohol in Parks Program. Adults may bring their own drinks under the program rules. A sale, public service or formal event with alcohol is different and needs the proper approvals.
Why it earns a place: Quiet green space, trails, many parking areas and a firepit option.
The problem: One shelter and one washroom across a large park. No playground appears in the current City record.
Choose it for: Adults, older children, walkers and a group that values space over a packed list of attractions.
Ask before booking: Which picnic site is covered, and is the washroom near that site or a long walk away?
8. Christie Pits is the easiest covered picnic by subway
Christie Pits Park is across Bloor Street from Christie Station. The City lists one picnic shelter, five picnic sites, three washroom facilities, a playground, wading pool, outdoor pool, firepit and outdoor oven.
This is the easiest answer when many guests do not drive. People can leave the subway and see the park. Bloor Street also makes it easy to buy ice, coffee or forgotten food.
The park is busy and open. Baseball, the pool, playground, oven, rink and informal gatherings all share a small urban park. A permit reserves the site, not silence or a private lawn. The hills can also be awkward for a wagon, wheelchair or person who tires easily.
Christie Pits is in the Alcohol in Parks Program. Personal drinking is allowed for adults under the program rules. Alcohol still cannot be consumed within two metres of the playground, wading pool, outdoor pool or rink. A public or catered alcohol plan needs a special event route.
Why it earns a place: Best transit, shops nearby, three washroom facilities and many things for children to do.
The problem: Noise, sports, crowds and slopes. Only one of the listed picnic shelters is a roof.
Choose it for: A city group arriving from different subway lines with little equipment.
Ask before booking: Is Picnic Site One the covered shelter on your permit, and which Christie Station exit gives the easiest path?
9. Sherwood Park is the smaller Midtown shelter
Sherwood Park at 190 Sherwood Avenue now has clearer current information than it did before. The live City record lists one picnic shelter, two picnic sites, one washroom facility, a playground, wading pool and two parking lots.
The park sits in a wooded valley east of Mount Pleasant Road. It feels calmer and more local than a waterfront destination. That works for a modest group that wants shade, a playground and a short walk.
The ground is the warning. Stairs, slopes, ravine paths and mud can make the easiest-looking route hard for a wheelchair, stroller or older guest. The off-leash dog area is another factor for a child or adult who is afraid of dogs.
The City lists one shelter and two picnic sites, so one site may be open. Ask for a photo and the exact site name. Do not rely on an invitation that only says “near the playground.”
Why it earns a place: A real current shelter listing, washroom, playground and a smaller neighbourhood setting.
The problem: Mud, slopes and natural trails. Parking is limited and the dog area changes the feel of the park.
Choose it for: A smaller Midtown family picnic after the route has been checked.
Ask before booking: Which of the two picnic sites has the roof, and can a guest reach it without stairs?
10. High Park has good shelters, but it is the hardest option
High Park has five picnic shelters and 13 picnic sites in the current City listing. It also lists seven washroom facilities, four playgrounds, a pool, splash pads and a wading pool.
Those numbers sound like an easy first pick. They are why High Park is last here. A large park with many numbered sites creates more ways to get lost. Picnic Site 15, Site 23 and another shelter are not interchangeable. Some sites are far from the subway, washroom or place where a vehicle can stop.
Vehicle access has changed in recent years and can change again. Do not promise that guests can drive inside, park near the tables or unload at the shelter. Use High Park or Keele Station when possible, then mark the walking route. Make a separate access plan for a person who cannot manage a long hill.
The park can also feel overrun during cherry blossom season and hot weekends. A covered site does not make the surrounding roads, washrooms or attractions calm.
Why it earns a place: Several true shelter choices, many washrooms and lots for children to do.
The problem: The hardest park for directions, walking distance, vehicle access and supply delivery.
Choose it for: An organized group that has visited the exact site and will send a clear guest map.
Ask before booking: What is the site number, nearest legal entrance, closest open washroom and current accessible drop-off plan?
Why Centre Island and Leuty did not make the top 10
This does not mean they are bad. It means they are weaker when a dependable rain plan is the main goal.
Centre Island adds a ferry to every problem
The Centre Island record lists one picnic shelter, six picnic sites and three washroom facilities. Use it for a deliberate full-day Island trip. Do not use it as a quick escape from thunder, wind or a cancelled plan.
Portable propane barbecues are not allowed on Toronto Island. Ferry queues and long walks also make a heavy group picnic harder. Book it for the Island experience, not because it is the easiest shelter.
Leauty Picnic Shelter has a weaker washroom answer
Beaches Park near Leuty Avenue lists two picnic shelters and one picnic site. The shelter is often called Leuty locally, while the City has also used the spelling Leauty.
The live Beaches Park record does not list its own washroom facility. There are seasonal facilities in the wider beach area, but “somewhere near the boardwalk” is not a strong plan for children, older guests or a person who needs a dependable accessible washroom. Woodbine Beach Park gives a clearer package.
How to book the right shelter, step by step
1. Count everybody
Include children, helpers, photographers and people who may only stop by. If the real number could pass 25, use the permit route.
The City allows up to 200 participants per picnic site in its online rules. A group over 200 must call Client Services at 416-396-7378. Capacity for one physical shelter may be lower than 200, so ask for the table and roof capacity too.
2. Make a needs list before searching
Write down:
- Number of people.
- Number of children and their ages.
- Roof and table needs.
- Step-free route.
- Accessible washroom need.
- Barbecue or firepit plan.
- Food delivery or catering.
- Music, decorations, tent or inflatable.
- Parking and legal drop-off need.
- Two possible dates and three possible parks.
The person on the phone can help much more when the request is exact.
3. Search online, then call if the answer is fuzzy
Some picnic sites can be booked online. Online availability is shown only within the City's booking window and not every location appears in the same way.
Call Client Services if the site name does not say “shelter,” the map is unclear or a disability-related detail can end the visit. Ask staff to email the site map if one exists.
4. Ask the roof question in one sentence
Use this:
“Does the exact picnic site on this permit have a permanent roof over the picnic tables?”
Then ask how many tables fit under it. A gazebo, shade structure, playground canopy and picnic shelter are not always the same thing.
5. Read the permit before paying
Check the date, time, site number, maximum attendance and approved activities. Look for barbecue fuel, insurance and equipment rules.
The City's general rule says confirmed bookings are non-refundable and non-transferable. If the City closes the facility for severe weather or emergency work, staff may relocate the booking or provide a credit or refund.
6. Visit the site
For a large event, this step is worth the trip. Take pictures of the shelter, washroom route, nearest entrance, table layout, parking lot and any hill.
Check mobile reception too. A guest cannot call the organizer if both phones lose signal in a ravine.
7. Send a guest map, not just a park name
Include:
- Exact picnic site number.
- A map pin at the shelter.
- Nearest street entrance.
- TTC stop and walking direction.
- Accessible route and drop-off plan.
- Washroom pin.
- Organizer phone number.
- Rain decision time.
“High Park” or “Thomson Memorial Park” is not a meeting point.
Barbecue rules without the guessing
Bringing your own barbecue requires a booking. Small portable propane barbecues are allowed at picnic areas, except Toronto Island, but the permit still controls the event.
A propane barbecue must be at least 10 feet from combustible structures, objects, plants and overhanging branches. That means it should not sit under the picnic shelter.
Permanent City barbecues use charcoal or briquettes. Do not put hot coals in a regular garbage bin or at the base of a tree. Use the coal container provided.
A firepit is a separate facility. Firepits have their own fees, hours, insurance and weather limits. Open-air fires cannot be used when wind is over 25 kilometres per hour, when rain or fog is present, during a smog alert or when smoke cannot clear safely.
Alcohol rules are not one simple yes or no
Adults age 19 and older may bring and drink their own alcohol in 55 parks in the City's Alcohol in Parks Program. From this top 10, Milliken Park, Thomson Memorial Park, G. Ross Lord Park and Christie Pits Park are on the current list.
Personal drinking under that program is different from selling alcohol or serving it to the public. A special event with alcohol needs City and Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario approvals.
Alcohol cannot be consumed within two metres of playgrounds, wading pools, splash pads, outdoor pools, rinks, skateboard parks or BMX parks. Check the exact park and permit before adding drinks to an invitation.
Decorations, tents, speakers and party rentals
Do not tie balloons, banners, signs or decorations to trees. The online picnic rules say not to do it.
Do not stake anything into the ground without approval. Underground irrigation, electrical lines or tree roots may be there.
A tent, inflatable, fence, stage or large structure can move the booking into the special event process. Amplified sound does the same. A small personal speaker kept at a reasonable level is not the same as a DJ setup, but the permit and noise bylaw still apply.
Power is not included just because a shelter has a roof. Assume there is no outlet unless the City confirms one in writing.
Food, catering and safe storage
Sharing food with your invited group is one thing. Serving food to the public, selling it or bringing a caterer can trigger a special event review and food-safety rules.
Keep cold food at a safe temperature. Pack separate coolers for drinks and food so the food cooler stays closed. Bring a probe thermometer, hand-washing water, soap, paper towel and garbage bags.
Do not plan on a sink at the shelter. A washroom nearby is not a kitchen.
Accessibility questions that need real answers
“The park is accessible” is too broad. Ask about the full chain:
- Can the vehicle or Wheel-Trans stop legally near the route?
- Is the path firm, wide and step-free?
- Is the slope manageable?
- Is there an accessible table under the roof?
- Is the washroom accessible and open for the full permit time?
- Is there room beside the table for a wheelchair or mobility device?
- Can a person leave quickly if weather changes?
Thomson Memorial Park gives the clearest current detail in this guide. The City says its updated playground includes accessible benches and picnic tables. Woodbine's bathing station lists accessible washrooms. G. Ross Lord's official description calls its trails fully accessible.
These facts still do not answer the route to your exact shelter. Confirm it.
A rain and heat plan that does not depend on hope
A picnic shelter is useful for light rain. It is not a storm building. Most shelters have open sides. Lightning, strong wind, smoke, flooding and extreme heat can make the event unsafe.
Choose a decision time before the day begins. For example, the organizer checks the weather and City alerts at 9 a.m. and sends one message by 9:15 a.m.
Have an indoor backup that matches the group size. A small condo party room is not a real backup for 80 people.
Bring dry towels, clips, table covers, extra drinking water and a first-aid kit. In hot weather, make one table the water station and remind guests where the washroom is.
What a shelter does not include
A roof does not promise:
- Side walls.
- Dry ground.
- Electricity.
- Lighting after dark.
- A sink or drinking fountain.
- A private washroom.
- Reserved parking.
- A loading zone.
- Permission for a barbecue under the roof.
- Permission for alcohol, a speaker, tent or inflatable.
- Exclusive use of the whole park around it.
The permit only gives what it says.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best Toronto picnic shelter for a large family gathering?
Milliken Park is our best first call because the City lists three picnic shelters, three picnic sites, one washroom, four playgrounds and a splash pad. Thomson Memorial Park offers more shelters, but its many sites and entrances need a very clear guest map.
Do I need a permit for a picnic in a Toronto park?
You need a booking for more than 25 people or when you bring your own barbecue. A smaller group without a barbecue may use an open area, but a permit holder has priority at a reserved site.
How much does a Toronto picnic shelter permit cost?
The 2026 base fee is $112.57 for up to 200 people, before HST. That is about $127.20 with HST. Insurance and larger-event costs may be added.
Does every bookable picnic site have a roof?
No. A picnic site may be grass and tables with no shelter. Ask if the exact site number on the permit has a permanent roof over the tables.
Can I bring a propane barbecue to a Toronto picnic shelter?
A small portable propane barbecue can be allowed at a permitted picnic area, except on Toronto Island. It must stay at least 10 feet from combustible structures, plants and branches. Do not put it under the shelter.
Can I drink alcohol at a Toronto park picnic?
Adults may bring their own alcohol to parks in the Alcohol in Parks Program and follow its rules. Selling or serving alcohol to the public needs extra approvals. Personal drinking is also banned close to playgrounds, pools, splash pads and several other facilities.
Will the City refund a picnic permit if it rains?
Confirmed bookings are generally non-refundable and non-transferable. If the City closes the facility because of severe weather or emergency maintenance, it may relocate the booking or offer a credit or refund. Ordinary rain is not automatically a City closure.
Which Toronto picnic shelter is easiest by TTC?
Christie Pits is the easiest on this list because Christie Station is across Bloor Street. High Park is near the subway at its north edge, but many picnic sites are a long walk inside the park.

The final call
Call Milliken first for a large family picnic. Choose Thomson Memorial for the widest shelter choice, Gzowski for the lake, Rennie for a smaller west-end day and Christie Pits when transit matters most.
Leave High Park last. Fame does not make the coolers lighter or the directions clearer.
