Alfresco licence
Overview
We want to transform the heart of our high streets by highlighting and expanding its alfresco and continental feel and give more space to people to enjoy our beautiful areas and what they have to offer. Offering outdoor or ‘Alfresco’ dining to customers is a great opportunity to increase trade.
Cost
From October 2024 we will be following the government guidelines in the 'Levelling Up Bill' and charging £500 for a new licence of five chairs or more or £350 for a renewal of an existing licence and £106 for four seats or less. This will allow us to fully cover our costs.
The licence will be valid for 2 years.
Businesses are expected to run their Alfresco areas in line with up-to-date national guidance.
