The final decision

The final decision about your application will be made based on:

  • the plans you submitted
  • responses from the public consultation 
  • advice offered by the Safety Advisory Group

We make the final decision.

If your application has been successful, the events team will write to you with:

  • a conditional approval
  • details of the application fee, hire fee and any damage deposit 

You must pay the hire fee within at least 10 working days before the event. Failure to pay on time could result in cancellation of the event.
