Will a village hall require a licence for regulated entertainment?
Currently, a licence is required for the provision of public entertainment at such premises and this remains the position in respect of the provision of regulated entertainment under the Licensing Act. However, as with church halls, there will be an exemption from the payment of fees in relation to the provision of regulated entertainment at village halls, parish or community halls or other premises of a similar nature. If, however, the licence also authorises the use of the premises for the supply of alcohol or the provision of late night refreshment, a fee will be required for those activities.
