If you wish to organise an event, you must notify the municipality and, in some cases, apply for a permit. 

For many small events, you do not need a permit. In such cases, you can provide notification of the event free of charge.

Large events with more than 2 000 visitors must be notified 16 weeks in advance. Smaller events must be notified 8 to 14 weeks in advance.

You do not need a permit in the following situations:

  • A maximum of 150 people are present.
  • The event is outside and does not last longer than 1 day.
  • The event takes place between 09:00 and 24:00.
  • Music or other sounds can be heard between 09:00 and 23:30.
  • The event will not take place on a main road lane
  •  The event does not hinder traffic and emergency services
  •  Objects (such as a bouncy castle, barbecue or party tent) may not exceed 25 m2 per object.
  • There is an organizer.

When a permit is required:

  • the event is a large gathering, such as a festival, celebration, show or jumble sale.
  • it may be attended by more than 150 people.
