An event is classified as any gathering of people brought together for a common purpose by some prearrangement. However, certain events may be exempt from requiring an event permit based on the risk to public health and safety.
All events require an application form, but if you are unsure whether your event may be exempt, please contact the Shire at [email protected].
Our event guide will assist you in identifying basic standards and safety measures to satisfy the approving authorities and ensure the safety of participants.
