Their sturdy construction and weather-resistant materials make sure they can withstand long-term use in varying environmental settings.
Every single park and outdoor public space can benefit from commercial outdoor picnic tables. Picnic tables make great rest spots for school groups, parents, and outdoor workers who just need a welcoming space to stop and rest. They can serve varying functions, from being a beautiful place to work on school projects, have lunch, or even stop to socialize with other parents while your children play.
But what other purposes do they serve? Here are 5 reasons why your park needs commercial outdoor picnic tables!

I bet you didn't think that community parks would be awesome places to host celebrations, did you? Birthdays, family reunions, and local holiday gatherings. Parks have wide open spaces and greenery, and a lot of people adore hosting their celebrations in the great outdoors.
But how can you have a party if you don't have a place to lay out food, drinks, cakes, presents, and decorations? Picnic tables are perfect for families and friends to create a beautiful celebration experience under the warm spring sun, with plenty of space for people to get together while the little ones play and have fun.
Not convinced? Here are some additional reasons why hosting celebrations at public parks a clever idea is:
It’s an Affordable Venue Option: Public parks often have lower rental fees when you compare them to other venue options. This means they’re always excellent value and budget-friendly.
The Setting is Beautiful: During the spring and summer months, you can plan for a beautiful warm day to ensure you’re having a sunny party amongst the greenery, trees, and wide-open spaces. Double bonus: you may even have a playset at your park!
Parks Provide Ample Space: Parks are perfect for large gatherings because they have tons of wide-open space! You can have lots of people and space for games and activities for guests of all ages.
The Amenities are Pre-Installed: Picnic tables provide ready-to-go seating and dining options, reducing the need to spend a lot of money on renting furniture. Did we already mention playsets, too?
The Environment is Family Friendly: Parks are practically designed for families; playsets, walking paths, open fields, and sometimes even nearby places to grab snacks like a kiosk or local business nearby.
Encourages Outdoor Engagement: There’s no better way to enjoy nature than when you’re having a celebration in the sunshine and getting a lot of exercise. Whether that’s running around after little ones or playing games, parks are an active place to enjoy your time and loved ones.
The Setup is Customizable: You can add your special touches to picnic tables to match whatever theme of your celebration is. Whether it’s a retirement party or a fifth birthday for a little boy or girl – you can completely customize the experience.
Accessibility for Everyone: Public parks are often designed to be completely accessible to everyone, and certain commercial outdoor picnic tables can be designed to be 100% accessible.

Just as a disclaimer, if you do decide to use a public park to host your celebration, make sure you try to be environmentally conscious. Make sure to tidy up all waste and dispose of it appropriately, and try not to feed local wildlife any 'people food' – it can make them quite sick. As well, consider using eco-friendly decorations, such as:
Reusable tablecloths
Solar-powered string lights
Recycled paper banners
Wooden or bamboo utensils
Glass jars or mason jars
Coloured paper straws
Chalkboard signs
Seed paper decorations
Our Park Series Picnic Table is perfect for outdoor celebrations!
When working on a project, working in a typical space becomes very drab and boring. When you feel cooped up and need a place to really get your creativity going, a public park with a commercial outdoor picnic table offers a unique setting to work on arts and crafts, school projects, college papers, and more in a refreshing environment.
Green spaces have been proven to increase productivity. By having picnic tables in your public park, you can create an empowering space for students and workers to rest their laptops, notebooks, and crafting supplies to get their work done efficiently. Visitors can read their textbooks in a calm and relaxing space, complete their arts and crafts, and draw inspiration from nature.
Even the Harvard Business Review shows that just having greenery in the office can improve your morale and productivity – but what if you brought the school or office to the greenery instead? Now that’s a boost!
Our stylish Hexagonal Picnic Table has plenty of space for activities and projects.
Your local park isn’t just a convenient place to rest, go for a jog, or have your lunch; it’s also an open space typically designed with safety in mind. Lights, clear sightlines, designated play areas, non-slip surfaces, and room for emergency vehicles to enter as needed – these green spaces are a safe and secure place to enjoy public events and casual hangouts.
Picnic tables strategically placed throughout the park can make a serious difference when designing safe and accessible events. These surfaces can be utilized to host contests or hold equipment, while also offering a place to rest for tired and hungry guests. Having a place where you aren’t forced to sit on the ground (which is inaccessible to much of the population) ensures everyone can enjoy the park.
Our Compliant Picnic Table is the perfect option here.
OK, we’ve talked about the practical applications of commercial outdoor picnic tables, but let’s talk STYLE! Everyone wants their parks to be beautiful; this is why they install fountains, maintain greenery and flowers, keep trails nice and tidy, etc. Picnic tables can be a great part of the park’s overall aesthetic appeal!
You can match colour, materials, and design to other elements of the park, including other site furniture and the overall theme of the park. You can also determine your material and design choice based on the climate of the area you live in to ensure the longevity and appearance of the picnic table can last for a long time to come!
Our Urban Picnic Table matches well with other site furniture in our Urban Series, such as our Urban Flare Planter, Bench, and Accessible Double Container!
