Brimbank City Council is committed to promoting and supporting Brimbank's diversity through community run festivals and events. All community run festivals and events within Brimbank require an Events Permit. The Festivals and Events Handbook provides all the necessary information required to conduct a festival or event within Brimbank as well as information on how to complete the Event Permit application forms. To allow for adequate planning, applications should be lodged from 3-6 months before the event. This will allow enough time to collect documents such as public liability insurance, temporary food handling permits and alcohol licences.
