Outdoor event permits
If you are organising an event in any of City of Port Phillip’s public open spaces you will need an event permit. Permits ensure public safety and amenity in public spaces and assist in the sustainable management of our parks and foreshore.
How to apply for a permit
- Contact Event Services to check your preferred location
- Complete an application form. Please ensure you provide the following supporting documents:
- a copy of current Certificate of Currency for Public Liability Insurance, minimum of $20M
- a site plan
- a risk management plan
- any other documents as required
- Once the application has been assessed, an invoice will be issued
- Once payment is received your permit will be issued. Please note that a card payment fee applies.
An Event Manager will advise if any further documents will be required.
