Anzeige einer öffentlichen Veranstaltung

You must notify the relevant authority in advance of a public event.

If you wish to hold a public event, you must notify the responsible municipality, administrative community or fulfilling municipality of the event in writing at least one week in advance. For regularly recurring, similar public events, a single notification is sufficient.

In the following cases you need a permit:

• the required written notification was not made in due time at least one week before the event,
• it is a motor sport event or
• the event takes place in facilities not designated for this purpose and more than 1000 visitors are to be admitted at the same time.

Please note that your event notification to the municipality, administrative community or fulfilling municipality does not replace necessary notifications and permits to other authorities.

The advertisement shall contain at least the following information:

• Type, place and time of the event
• Number of expected participants

The issuance of a notice or a permit is subject to a fee.

The amount of the administrative costs is based on the Thuringian General Administrative Costs Ordinance (ThürAllgVwKostO) and may vary in individual cases.

The public event must be notified in writing at least one week in advance.

Please find out whether the responsible municipality has stipulated any special regulations in a regulatory ordinance or municipal bylaws.

The notification or approval of a public event does not replace further required notifications or approvals of other specialized laws, for example:

• traffic regulations according to the German Road Traffic Act (StVO)
• permits under road law in accordance with the Thuringian Road Act
• Reduction of closing times in accordance with the Thuringian Restaurant Act
• special permits according to the Thuringian Sunday and Public Holiday Act
• according to the law for the protection of minors;
• Registration with GEMA
• according to the trade regulations - GewO
• according to the Thuringian Fire and Disaster Protection Act (for example, in the case of traditional fires)

In individual cases, the responsible authorities may issue orders regarding the event, impose conditions or prohibit the event in order to avert danger.

Contact the municipality, administrative community or fulfilling municipality responsible for the venue.
For motor sport events, you must also submit an application for approval to the responsible district office.

The event notification must be submitted to the municipality or city council on whose municipal territory your event is to take place.
