Licence - entertainment
The Council is responsible for licensing theatres, cinemas and
other places used for stage music, dancing, plays, indoor sports or
film shows for public entertainment, under the Licensing Act

The main purpose of licensing entertainments is to enable us to
ensure that the four licensing objectives are promoted by the way
that the entertainment is managed. The licensing objectives
are:
- The prevention of crime and disorder
- The prevention of public nuisance
- Public safety
- The prtection of children from harm
