Markets

If you are planning to run a market or similar event whether indoors or outside e.g. a fayre, fete or festival, car boot or table sale, please see our events page to complete an application form which can help clarify if you need to apply for a market licence.

We have the authority to license markets and other events where things like goods, food or drinks are sold, whether for profit or for charity. We have legal rights to approve, regulate and in some cases stop markets from happening where necessary. We do this by issuing Market Licenses, which need to be paid for; these licenses cover both regular markets and one-time markets, as well as any similar events where sellers and buyers come together.
