Temporary Entertainment Events
A Temporary Entertainment Permit is required under Schedule 2, Part 1 of Local Law No. 1 (Administration) 2011 and Schedule 17 of Subordinate Local Law No. 1 (Administration) 2011 to hold a Temporary Entertainment Event (e.g., events open to the public, music festivals, concerts, amplified music concerts, shows, promotional events etc).
Temporary Entertainment Events follow a thorough assessment process during the application phase, to ensure the safety of persons and surrounding environments.
Please note:
- Council recommends submitting Temporary Entertainment Event applications to Council at least twelve (12) weeks prior to the event date, to ensure there is adequate time to assess your application and request further information (if required).
- You will need to provide evidence that any other required applications have been lodged and/or approved and the landowner gives consent to the application.
- Ensure that your application includes plans (e.g., site plan, noise management plan, traffic management plan, etc) and a copy of your Public Liability Insurance policy.
