Restrooms and handwashing for parties, weddings, and community events in Palo Alto.

Events in Palo Alto
Palo Alto's calendar is full of outdoor events: neighborhood block parties, school carnivals, club tournaments, and private celebrations in the backyards of houses that have no guest bathroom on the ground floor. Many of the city's community traditions, such as the May Fete Parade downtown and the Festival of the Arts on University Avenue, show how much happens outdoors here, and private hosts plan around the same weather.
For a private event, the main questions are guest count, how long the event lasts, whether alcohol or food is served, and where the truck can drop the units. For events in city parks such as Mitchell Park or Rinconada Park, check with the City of Palo Alto's park reservation staff first, since they set the rules for what can be placed on park property.
Events we set up for

Sizing rule of thumb
| Guests | ~4-hour event |
|---|---|
| Up to 50 | 1 unit |
| 51–100 | 2 units |
| 101–150 | 3 units |
| 151–200 | 4 units |
This is a common industry rule of thumb, not a regulation. Add units for longer events or when alcohol is served, and include at least one accessible unit for public events. Add handwashing where there's food.
