This is something i've been putting some thought into recently but not for whole weekends - just for one (all) night events

I think the new liscensing laws make it a hell of a lot easier to get a temporary entertainment and alcohol lisence for events like this and can be applied to pretty much any site. However if you go down this route it means you have to comply to health and safety rules etc. meaning you have to have security, adequate toilets, parking, maybe sound level monitoring etc and you have to do it all by the book (i'm not saying this is neccessarily a bad thing - but can work out pretty expensive), even if you've covered all those bases there's nothing to stop the police raiding it if they don't like the look of it - some folks i know put a small event on in a mansion house and the police turned up an hour before they kicked off and demanded 20 tickets for their undercover officers which needless to say put a bit of a dampner on the vibe.

Having said that i do think it would be possible to pull off such an event completley legally as long as you were very well organised, had some financial backing and if people were prepared to put their hands in their pockets in order to cover the costs (which i think most people would be)

Alternatively for smaller and/or more subtle events i'm sure a loophole could be found to get you out of needing a lisence. Maybe requiring people to sign up for membership of a club entitling them to recieve an invite to a private party on a site with the landowners consent - i don't know but i'm sure there must be a way ... or there is always the more traditional methods :;



I think if you could pull it off it's a wicked idea and i definately think it's worth a shot - good luck,

yeah i think that could be the way forward!


getting people to sign memebership for a club for a private party what a great idea!
