Markets
Are you interested in organising a market in Hamilton? There are a few things you may wish to consider.
Trading in public places can add life and vibrancy to a city however consideration must also be given to those people and businesses which could experience adverse affects. Council’s policy is to generally favour trading in public places in organised street markets but will consider applications for individual stalls.

Outdoor Dining
With a rapidly growing café, bar and restaurant culture, Hamilton is now enjoying a tradition of eating and drinking al-fresco. In order to manage the increasing popularity of outdoor dining areas, Council has introduced an outdoor dining area plan and permit system.
Cafes, bars and restaurants wishing to use part of the footpath space directly outside their premises for the purposes of outdoor dining or drinking must apply to Council for an outdoor dining permit, which will include the submission of an outdoor dining area plan. The outdoor dining permit will regulate the use of all street furniture used in outdoor dining areas.
