Events

The Special Events Group provides a one-stop regulation and information service for event and filming activities on the Council's public highway areas.

Regulation Role

To fulfil Council's obligations to ensure event and filming activities are carried out safely, and with minimum disruption to other highway users, officers give advice and permission to event organisers or filming companies on issues relating to:

  • Public health and safety
  • Crowd control
  • Proposed locations and routes
  • Noise and environmental parameters
  • Licensing
  • Road closures and parking suspensions

More information about applying to hold an event or to film on Westminster's public highways is available online.

Information Role

The Group also acts as a single point of contact within the Council for information concerning public events in Westminster and co-ordinates delivery of Council services necessary to support such activities. More information about events in Westminster in the coming months is available on the Council's site, or by viewing other organisations' websites. You may also contact us directly:
