Permission to host events

All events and activities held on Council owned land require permission to be obtained in advance. This applies to events of all sizes, from small community initiatives and promotion days to large scale productions that attract thousands of spectators. Organisers will usually be required to submit an application and may be asked to provide insurance details, necessary permits/licences/certificates and health and safety information. Whilst the council do not need to give permission for events which are to be held on private land it is recommended that the council are advised so that they can ensure adequate health and safety arrangements are in place.
