Permit/Plug/Play Pilot Program

Streets ready-made for events.
We're making it easier for community groups and organisations to run events that bring our local streets to life.

As part of the NSW Government's new Permit/Plug/Play Pilot Program, three Inner West streets have received pre-approval to hold up to six community events (six per site) or creative activations each year on a Sunday.

This means simpler approvals, ready-to-use event resources and hands-on support for both new and experienced organisers.

This initiative aims to create safe and vibrant spaces for local events and activities.

What's included

  • Streamlined event approvals
  • Pre-approved event management plans
  • Pre-approved traffic management plans
  • On-site power supply availability
  • Opportunity to hire hostile vehicle barriers from Council
