Wollongong's municipal park system and any municipal area/regional open-space district are separate authorities — get written approval from the specific council reserve or state/national park manager before a ceremony.

Dense public spaces in Wollongong are managed environments — private property with owner consent is usually simpler than an unpermitted park gathering.
