Event License

The City of Delano encourages events and would like to help make them run smoothly. In doing so, it is important to balance the probable impacts of the event on the community with the desires of the event participants. To improve the chances of having a successful event and maintain the quality of life for the surrounding community, these activities require permits to give the City the opportunity to review the plans.

A permit is required if your event is one of the following:

  •  Event has outdoor amplified sound or requires street closures
  •  Gatherings of more than 10 people on City property
  •  Walks, runs, athletics, bicycle races, and rides
  •  Outdoor concert and entertainment, public or semi‐public, dance, recreation, or sporting events
  •  Circuses, carnivals, fairs and festivals
  •  Farmer’s markets and swap meets
  •  Business events that utilize a sidewalk, parking lot, and/or tent
  •  Residential events that will likely obstruct, delay, or interfere with the normal flow of pedestrian or vehicular traffic.
  •  Any events that may impact neighboring properties

Please review the Special Event Permit - Supplemental Information Sheet (PDF) to determine what kind of permit your event requires.
