Event Space Portal

What is it?

Help and supports customers through the process of putting an event on Council owned land or booking one of their promotional spaces. The portal will make the event booking process quick, easy and simple. 

How it Works

Once they have provisionally booked their space they will need to upload an event management plan, risk assessments and supply the council with a copy of your Public Liability Certificate that covers the date of your event.

What You Can Do

Discover Venues

The event portal makes it easy for an event organiser to review and look at all open spaces available in Taunton and Wellington.

Availability

Once they have found their event space they can go to the calendar to check the availability and to ensure that no other event has booked this space on the same day.  They can also find in the top menu an availability calendar which shows all events taking place on that day.   

Book Now

Once you have clicked "Book Now" they will need to provide some information about themselves, brief event details and license requirements. Once this information has been provided an email will be sent to the Events Team at Taunton Deane Borough Council who will change the status of their enquiry from draft to provisional.  At this stage, they can then begin to upload documentation to support their event plans. 

Documents to upload:

• Event Management Plan
• Risk Assessments
• Public Liability Certificate (covering the date of your event)

Once received their plans will be reviewed and an invoice for the event space permit will be issued and they may also be asked to attend a Safety Advisory Group where further advice can be obtained. Throughout the process, the portal will keep you up-to-date on the progress of their plans.
