You can find advice in our downloadable street party guidance document:

Not all roads will be suitable to close for street parties. Roads that will be suitable are: 

  • Local roads
  • Cul-de-sacs
  • Residential roads

If it's not possible to close your road, we would consider a request to hold your street party in your local park.

Organising small, private street parties and fetes generally does not include activities that need a licence, like selling alcohol or providing certain types of entertainment.

If you want to have a paying bar, you will need a Temporary Event Notice. 

Our fees page contains information about any additional charges when holding a street party.
