Do you need event permits
|
Most outdoor special events and experiential brand activations on public property whether on plazas, streets, sidewalks or parks will require a permit. Even special events or brand activations at indoor locations whether they be public or private venues have their own special fees, additional concessions and requirements.
Besides the standard special event permit often required for most locations, additional permits are often needed for amplified sound, large structures such as props and installations, sampling, tents, stages, food vending, alcoholic beverage sampling, fire department permits for generators or electricity. Event Permit Experts is here as a one-stop resource to help you navigate the entire permitting process to make your Philidelphia event a success. |
