Send your initial and then final event documentation to Council
When should I do this?
Submit initial documents at least 2 months before the event.

Submit initial event documents
At least 2 months before your event, send the documentation you've gathered to your Council contact.
In the email message, list any permits or approvals you have applied for that are still pending.
We'll review and advise of:
- any information you still need to provide
- any permits or approvals you still need for your event.
Submit final event documents, including copies of permits and permissions
At least 2 weeks before the event, email your final event documentation to your Council contact.
Include any additional information we've asked you to provide, as well as copies of any permits, certificates or licenses you need for your event.
Council approval
We will review your event documents and, as long as there are no items outstanding, approve your request to hold the event.
Booking fee and bonds
If you're booking one of our venues, you'll receive an invoice for the venue booking fee when your event is approved.
- If the event poses a risk of damage to the venue, Council may also request an event bond.
- If you require vehicle access to the venue, Council will charge a key bond.
