Hold an event

Planning a community event, a wedding in a park or a large festival? We can help you stage a great event!

Depending on the type and size of your event, you may need to book a space or apply for a permit from us. You may need additional permits if you're planning to erect portable stages and marquees, sell food or alcohol, or have a fireworks show.

We can help you consider any public safety risks and neighbourhood disruptions, and provide guidance on holding an accessible event. Accessible Events – Guide for Organisers
