Published prices

Fee	Price
Athletic field rental, Individual/Business/CommercialFee schedule p.2 'Athletic Field Use' column 'INDIVIDUAL/BUSINESS/COMMERCIAL FEE': Field Rental $96 per hour. The athletic-field table has no 10% resident discount column, so no resident rate is computed. CarlsbadConnect's Individual/Commercial rate record ($48 per half hour) dates from 2018 and is not offered for current dates, and the field is 'not available online', so the fee-schedule price is the one to use. Nonprofit rates: resident nonprofit non-paid management $0, resident nonprofit paid management $28, nonresident nonprofit $56 (plus $5 per non-resident per season). Fields are allocated to resident nonprofit youth sports leagues in June and November; other organized use must meet insurance requirements and pay fees (fieldallocations@carlsbadca.gov). The rentals page says the May 2026 fee increases do not apply to athletic fields.	$96 / hr

Rules

Alcohol: This park isn't on the City's open-container ban list: CMC 8.44.040 bans open containers only in the Village-Barrio public places, Rotary Park, Holiday Park and Pine Avenue Community Park (a permit can waive it). Glass drinking containers are banned in every park (CMC 11.32.040(A)). For a permitted rental, alcohol is limited to the terms of the permit (Use Regulations Summary 9/9/25).
Bounce houses: Not published for athletic fields. Citywide, a bounce house needs a park and facility use permit (or a special event permit), a City-approved vendor, a $20 fee, max 15x15 ft, no water features (CMC 11.32.030(29); approved vendor list valid as of 9/28/26).
Amplified sound: No decibel or hour limit is published for parks. For permitted rentals the applicant must keep amplified sound, including radios, from disturbing other groups or the neighborhood; the City can cancel the event if noise is not controlled or police respond (Use Regulations Summary 9/9/25). Otherwise the disorderly-conduct rule on unreasonably loud noise applies (CMC 8.38.050).
Canopies: Not published for casual use. CMC 11.32.030(12) requires a written City permit to erect any temporary structure in a park; the City's Fire tent permit applies above 400 sq ft with sidewalls or 700 sq ft canopy-only (Special Event Reference Book, rev. 8/12/26).
Other rules: Fields are scheduled to resident nonprofit sports organizations twice a year (June and November); when unscheduled they are open for drop-in use with no organized activity. Any organized activity must meet the City's insurance requirements and pay the athletic field fees; contact fieldallocations@carlsbadca.gov. The field is not bookable online (CarlsbadConnect: 'Reservation for this facility is not available online'); scheduling goes through fieldallocations@carlsbadca.gov. Groups of 25 or more anywhere in a City park need a park and facility use permit (CMC 11.32.030(18)). No dogs (CMC 11.32.030(11)), no glass (CMC 11.32.040(A)), no smoking or vaping (CMC 11.32.110).
