Your
Special Event Application Form needs to provide a complete description of all of the activities taking place at your event. The more details you can provide, the better able we are to assist you in safely and successfully realizing your vision for your event. The Special Events team is available to act as a strategic planning partner from the beginning of the planning process, all the way through the event, to the follow-up after the event. Submitted applications are reviewed by several Municipal Departments before approval and additional requirements, revisions, or accommodations may be needed for final approval; this process takes time so your application must be received early.
Application Timelines
-
Recurring event applications need to be submitted
8-10 weeks before your event date to ensure sufficient time for review, revision, and approval.
-
New event applications need to be submitted
10-12 weeks before your event date to ensure sufficient time for review, revision, and approval.
While every effort will be made to support event applications, those submitted with less than the required amount of time may not be approved.
Apply early, communicate often, and let us help your event be a success.
