As of July 18th 2023 – Richmond has an Extreme Danger Fire rating. While our parks and trails remain open, the high volume of recent brush and grass fires has led to a complete ban on barbeques or stoves of any type in all City parks or at beaches.

Let’s breakdown the bylaw regarding the operation of BBQs and grills in Richmond Parks.

Section 2.7.4 states: a person must not light or operate… a natural gas or propane fuelled camp stove or barbeque… in an area not designated for such activity.
