Fee Waiver Policy
This policy offers financial help through fee waivers to nonprofit groups that run community-benefit programs, services, or events. It ensures the City supports festivals and events fairly without putting a strain on the annual budget.
How to apply for a fee waiver
Completed applications, including a copy of the group's budget, are only considered by the City Council three times during the year: March, June, and September. Please submit your fee waiver application well in advance of your proposed event.
- Review the Fee Waiver Policy before submitting your application
- Complete the Fee Waiver Application Form
- Submit the form in person or by mail to: City Hall, Clerks Department, 4310 Queen Street, Niagara Falls, ON L2E 6X5
Special event permit
You may also need a special event permit if the event takes place on municipal property, such as streets and parks. Types of events include filming, parades, bicycle tours and races, running events, processions, walk-a-thons, sidewalk sales, and more.
Event organizers can find more details and complete an application on the Special Events Planning Guide page.
