Wedding / Quinceañera
Consider the full multipurpose hall if you need round tables, dancing, catering and a stage. The city lists 300–350 seats in banquet-and-dance arrangements.
Small Business Meeting
Rooms A–D are better for training or small seminars. Room A seats approximately 20 in classroom arrangement; B, C and D each seat 25.

East or West Hall can be more appropriate than renting the full multipurpose room. Compare the actual guest count and desired floor plan.
Patio Event
The covered patio supports smaller receptions. Ask about weather backup, lighting, catering access and whether indoor room use is also required.

How to Reserve a Room: Step-by-Step
Choose a meeting room, East Hall, West Hall, full multipurpose hall or patio according to guest count and seating arrangement.
List your preferred date and one or two alternatives. Include setup, guest arrival, program time, cleanup and departure.
Confirm whether you qualify as an Anaheim resident, nonprofit organization or commercial renter. Ask what documents prove eligibility.
Call 714-765-3373 during office hours and ask which spaces are available, what current fees apply and whether your preferred arrangement is permitted.
Anaheim provides one-time and multiple-use applications, floor diagrams, facility-use regulations and an alcohol agreement. Select the forms appropriate to the event.
Discuss food service, music, DJ equipment, decorations, stage, alcohol, insurance, security, accessible access and cleanup responsibilities.
Ask for base rent, minimum hours, application and setup fees, staff/security charges, damage deposit and cancellation policy.
Submit the City application and follow staff instructions for agreement signing and payment. Obtain written confirmation before paying vendors or inviting guests.
After deciding on your event, use the official Brookhurst rental forms and floor diagrams to access the documents required for the final booking process.

Wedding, Quinceañera & Party Rental Rules
Food & Catering
The multipurpose area has an associated kitchen listed for catering staging. Ask staff whether your caterer can use warming equipment, refrigeration or preparation surfaces, and whether there are restrictions on appliances, deliveries and cleanup.
Alcohol
The City states that alcohol may be permitted only with approval. Additional fees and security guards are required. Do not assume approval is automatic or that alcohol can be sold without additional permissions.
Tables, Chairs & Equipment
Round and rectangular banquet tables are listed amenities. Portable stages, PA equipment, lecterns and other audiovisual items may be available, but specific equipment allocations and setup arrangements should be confirmed in writing.
Decorations, Music & Cleanup
Before paying a decorator or DJ, ask about allowable mounting methods, candles, confetti, sound limits, delivery windows, stage placement, outside vendors and cleanup standards. The approved facility-use regulations and signed contract control your event.
Accessibility & Guest Comfort
The facility offers climate-controlled rooms and substantial on-site parking. If guests need wheelchair-accessible seating, restroom routes, drop-off arrangements or specific accommodations, discuss those needs with staff before confirming the floor plan.
Programs for Seniors & Community Activities
Brookhurst is also used for community programming, including activities for older adults. Anaheim publishes a monthly Brookhurst older-adult program calendar through its Parks and Recreation services.
How to Find a Current Program
- Check the current month’s Brookhurst Community Center calendar.
- Identify the activity name, date, time and location.
- Confirm whether advance registration or a fee applies.
- Ask whether the activity has any age or residency requirements.
- Call 714-765-3373 if the activity listing is unclear.
Anaheim also describes a congregate lunch program for older adults, with lunch service on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 11 AM, a suggested $3 contribution for guests age 60 or older and $5 for younger guests. Do not assume every Anaheim senior lunch service operates at Brookhurst; verify the exact serving location and reservation procedure through the older-adult program office.
These activities make Brookhurst different from an exclusively private banquet facility. For a comparison of recreation programs and senior services at another California municipal facility, see the Seven Trees Community Center program and visitor guide.
