Cambridge City Council is committed to supporting community events.

We recognise events give the public the opportunity to take part in a rich variety of music and entertainment, as well as bringing more people into the area in support of both economic and cultural growth.

Licensing

The Licensing Act 2003 states that most events and activities will require a Premises Licence or Temporary Events Notice: find out more about event licensing.
