Non-profit activity licence
An Events/Activity licence is required for non-commercial activities that involve placing something on the highway or the Town Centre Bandstand. Examples include:
- Charities or non-profits that require the use of a table, chair or gazebo for a charity of information event
- Charities or non-profits that require a vehicle to be parked in the town centre to be used as an information centre
- A musical performance or entertainment on the Town Centre Bandstand
We must process your application before the licence can be granted. This means Tacit Consent does not apply. If you have not heard from Horsham District Council within a reasonable period, please contact us.
Please submit your application no less than 28 days prior to the date of the proposed event.
