Overview

A temporary event notice (TEN) is used to authorise small-scale ad hoc events held in or on any premises involving no more than 499 people and for a maximum of 168 hours at any one time.

You must be 18 years or over to apply for a TEN.

If you want to have more than 499 people, or have reached the maximum number of TENs this year for a premises or piece of land (15 TENs and maximum number of days is 21), you’ll need to apply for a premises licence. 

More information is available in the guidance notes:
