Eindhoven247 is the assigned portal when it comes to city events. We are responsible for composing the event calendar en assisting event organisors with licence applications. The Municipality of Eindhoven handles the licence application.

For the upcoming calendar year, you can reserve a location in the public space of Eindhoven until the 30th of September. Due to the large amount of applications, some of the locations might be booked. By applying for a location in advance, you can claim your spot on the calendar. When your event is put on the calendar, it doesn’t automatically mean your licence is approved. You apply for a licence via ‘Eindhoven application events’. After October 1st, the calendar is submitted to the Municipality of Eindhoven. They will establish the event calendar before December 31st.

You can find the calendar here, but this calendar has no pr objectives. Visitors of the city of Eindhoven can take a look on the website thisiseindhoven.

Whether an event requires a licence depends on a number of factors such as the duration of the event, the number of visitors etc. Terms and conditions are listed here.

If you cannot meet these terms and conditions, you need to apply for a licence.

You do not need to apply for a licence or report a private event on private grounds. The event can take place if it meets the environmental license of your location. 

If you put up a tent for over 150 people, you have to submit an occupancy notification firesafe usage at omgevingsloket@eindhoven.nl.

If you organise a street or neigbourhood party, it is sufficient to send a notification to the Municipality of Eindhoven will suffice. Terms and conditions are listed here.

If you cannot meet these terms and conditions, you need to apply for a licence.

Would you like to organise an event? The first step is to sign up your event for the event calendar. Eindhoven247 will check if the date and location is still available.

After that you can continue on with the licence application. If available, please check the location profile in advance.

We don’t have a standard safety plan. Each activity/event is different and needs its own approach. The Municipality of Eindhoven does have a standard format. We can send it to you if you like.

Eindhoven247 can help you with the preparation of a safety plan. Our organisation has created safety plans for events such as PSV Championship, Park Hilaria and King’s Day. We are happy to send you an offer.

Releasing balloons seems to be very cheerful and festive. However it has adverse consequences for both human, animal and nature and does not match with the sustainable ambitions of Eindhoven. That is why releasing balloons is actively discouraged in our municipality. Fortunately there are sufficient alternatives. More information and the alternatives you can find here.

When there is anchoring in the ground by means of poles, pins, fences etc. you have to make a click report at the kadaster to get information about cables and pipes in the ground. You can submit a click report here.
