When do I need a Permit?
The City of Kelowna issues permits for 4 types of activities in City outdoor spaces:
Outdoor Events
An Outdoor Event Permit is required for all events taking place on City property AND for events of over 1000 people on private property. Examples include: parades, concerts, triathlons, community events, etc. Events must be available to the general public as private bookings cannot book park space.
Before beginning the permit application process, please ensure you are wanting to host an outdoor event. If your event is better defined below, a different permit is likely required. Please click on the links to learn more.

Tournaments
A Tournament permit is required for all major tournaments or special events taking place on City property. Generally, these are sporting events that require an additional level of service outside of a standard field rental booking. Examples would include: a regional baseball tournament, football training camp, charity slo-pitch game etc. Further application information can be found here.
Filming
Film Permits are required for any filming taking place on City property or private property that will have an impact on the public. Examples of public impact include parking, noise, traffic impact and sidewalk closures. Further application information can be found here.
