Special Event Application

To complete an application you will need to have an account with us. If you don't have an account, please create an account.

A special event application is required for events taking place on City property. Special events may be civic, provincial, or national celebrations, cultural performances or gatherings, sporting tournaments and a wide range of commercial or corporate functions.

Private events (birthday parties, family reunions, company picnics, etc.) do not require a special event application, but do require a rental permit. Contact facilitybookings@guelph.ca for more information.

If you are unsure whether your event is required to complete a Special Event Application, email specialevents@guelph.ca or call 519-837-5678
