Expressing an interest
We ask organisers to express an interest in holding events in our district before making any firm arrangements,
Asking organisers to express interests helps to ensure we are bringing a positive balance of events to the city and district, that events are attractive, well managed and safe, and that we don't have event clashes.
How and when to submit an expression of interest
You can submit an expression of interest at any point, however we operate an 'expression of interest window’ in October each year, for events to be held during the following calendar year.
This ‘window’ allows us to manage the range, quality, and number of events during peak times.
If you express an interest after October for the forthcoming year, your choice of dates may be more limited, as some events and activities may already be booked into the calendar. We would therefore encourage you to get in touch as early as possible if you have particular dates in mind.
