Display of a public event
Service Description
If you wish to hold a public event, you must notify the responsible municipality, administrative community or fulfilling municipality of the event in writing at least one week in advance. For regularly recurring, similar public events, a single notification is sufficient.
In the following cases you need a permit:
- the required written notification was not made in due time at least one week before the event,
- it is a motor sport event or
- the event takes place in facilities not designated for this purpose and more than 1000 visitors are to be admitted at the same time.
Please note that your event notification to the municipality, administrative community or fulfilling municipality does not replace necessary notifications and permits to other authorities.
Who should I contact?
For motor sport events, you must also submit an application for approval to the responsible district office.
Competent authority
The event notification must be submitted to the municipality or city council on whose municipal territory your event is to take place. If necessary, the responsibility also lies with an administrative community or a fulfilling municipality. Please enquire about this with the locally responsible municipality.
If you would like to hold a motor sport event, please also contact the responsible district office after notifying the municipality in order to apply for the necessary permit there. A separate permit application is only not required if you want to hold the motorsport event on the territory of an independent city.
Which documents are required?

What deadlines do I have to pay attention to?
