Municipality Berkelland: Applying for an event licence
If you wish to organise an event, you must notify the municipality. In some cases, apply for a permit.
For very small events, you do not need a permit. In such cases, you can provide notification of the event free of charge.
Large events must be notified 16 weeks in advance. Smaller events must be notified 3 to 8 weeks in advance.
You do not need a permit:
You do not need a permit for events that involve few risks. Usually they last no longer than a day and are aimed at entertainment and relaxation. They do not make much noise and do not take up much of the public space. Think of small neighborhood parties, game activities and such.
You do need a permit:
If your event does not meet the above requirements, you probably need a permit. For more information, see: Organizing an event, notification or permit.
