Alcohol Licensing
Under the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012, local government authorities have a range of powers and responsibilities.
Read more about Council's role in alcohol licensing here.
The days between 20 December 2019 and 15 January 2020 (inclusive) are not counted as working days under the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act.
This means you may need to apply for your Special Licence earlier than usual during this period.
If your event is to be held between 20 December 2019 and 16 January 2020 then you will need to submit your application by 21 November 2019.
