Community Event Planning

If you are planning a community event in Cochrane, there are several things to consider during planning. We’ve collected information on this page related to permits and resources to help you out. 

Community Event Permits

If your event is being hosted in a park, on a road or at another municipally owned venue, you will need a Community Event Permit. Community Event Permits help prevent scheduling conflicts and ensure the appropriate insurance and licensing are in place. 

Before applying for a permit, review the Event Planning Standards and confirm availability with the Community Liaison, Events & Film (403-851-2535). Once availability is confirmed, you can apply for the permit by completing the Community Event Application form.
