Neighbourhood street parties

Neighbourhood street parties are a great way to get to know your neighbours. We encourage communities to host street parties through offering resources including free public liability insurance policies (limited number available) and road closure permits at no cost. Community events are not eligible for the Street Parties Program. To help you prepare for any road closures you need to download and read the Guide for Road Closure Signage Diagram.

If you would like to apply to hold a street party you need to apply six weeks prior to the event. It's quick and easy to do online:

Street Party Application 

  • Once Council has confirmed these details, you will need to notify everyone affected by the road closure using the Notification to Residents and Traders of Street Party Template and record their consent on the Resident Signature Register.
