Licence Summary

A Temporary Event Notice(TEN) must be served on the Licensing Authority, the Police and Pollution Control if you wish to provide licensable activities on a 'one off' basis. Such events may be held in the open air or within premises which don't have a premises licence or whose licence doesn't cover the hours or activities you wish to provide.

The number of Tens which can be made by a person or in respect of a place is limited by statute so please read thoroughly the guidance notes below.

NB Tens must be served on the Licensing Authority, Police and Environmental Health Officer (Noise Pollution) (addresses below), by no later than 10 clear working days prior to the event not including the day the TEN is received or the day of the event. Please remember to allow for bank holidays which are listed below in 'Non-Working Days'.

A 'Late' TEN may be served up to 5 clear working days, not including the day of the event, but if any objections are received then the event will not be able to go ahead. There is a limit as to the number of 'late' Tens which can be served in a calendar year so please read the guidance notes below. NB late Tens should only be submitted in exceptional circumstances which are beyond the control of the premise's user.

Please note that the fee of £21.00 is not refundable if your TEN is rejected or refused for any reason.
