You will need to take out public liability insurance to a minimum value of $10 million and name your local council as an interested party. A copy of this document must be submitted before your application is given approval.
Auditions are required for applicants who have not held a City busking permit in the last 12 months to determine if the acts are of a competent and reasonable standard.
To carry out busking activities you must ensure the busking activities do not:
- cause damage to any council property
- unreasonably interfere with residential amenity
- unreasonably interfere with the interests of commercial operators in the vicinity of the busking activity.
Buskers must clearly display their permit certificate at all times whilst performing.
