Proposed New Public Trading, Events and Filming Bylaw 2022

by Auckland Council

Every day, various trading activities, events, and filming occur in public places controlled by Auckland Council.

These activities increase the vibrancy and appeal of public places such as streets, footpaths, local parks and civic spaces by enhancing amenities and delivering social and economic benefits.

However, they also may increase the risk of:

• preventable collisions
• accidents
• injuries
• obstructions
• nuisance
• misuse of council-controlled public places.

How we protect you:

We make rules for trading, events and filming in public places we control.

These include:

• markets
• stalls
• mobile shops
• outdoor dining
• hire of micro-mobility devices and recreational equipment
• fundraising
• promotions
• display of goods
• street performance
• busking
• pavement art.
