There are regular dance parties at our hotel but we don organise them – we just provide the premises, collect the bar but don collect any of the takings. Why should we pay PPCA fees?
If dance parties are held at your premises, it is your responsibility as the owner of the premises to ensure that the appropriate licences are in place prior to the event taking place. We have found that many owners of clubs and pubs pass the cost of the PPCA, APRA and other fees on to the promoter as a legitimate business cost. However, if you choose to do so, then that is a matter to be decided between you and the promoter.
