Arlington event seasons

Popcorn Machine Rentals in Arlington — FAQ
Do I need a permit to use a popcorn machine in an Arlington County park?
Yes, for most events with external equipment in Arlington County parks, you will need to apply for a special use permit from the Parks and Recreation Department. This ensures compliance with park regulations.
What kind of power source do your popcorn machines require?
Our standard popcorn machines typically require a dedicated 15-amp, 120-volt outlet. We recommend ensuring adequate power is available at your event location to avoid tripping breakers.

Yes, but you will need to coordinate with the school administration or event organizer for approval and access to power. School policies often dictate vendor access and equipment usage on school grounds.
