Events on council land

If you are planning to hold an event on land owned by East Suffolk Council, then you may need to apply for permission to do so.

To apply for permission, we have introduced EventApp, an online permitting portal that simplifies the application process, allowing you to confirm the location of your event, check availability, and submit your application.

Visit EventApp for comprehensive guidance and to submit your application
