Temporary Event Notice

A Temporary Event Notice (TEN) is a legal way to organize a one-time event, such as a party or outdoor gathering, where alcohol is sold or music is played loudly. It allows event organizers to operate legally without needing a full license, provided the event meets specific rules and is within allowed parameters. Usually, a TEN must be submitted to local authorities beforehand, typically at least 10 days in advance, and there’s a limit on the number of events and attendance sizes. It ensures the event complies with safety and noise regulations for a temporary and controlled public gathering.
