Busking

If you are planning on performing in a public space in a public space in exchange for donations, you will need a busking permit. Busking performances may include:

  • Singing
  • Playing an instrument
  • Magic performance

Busking Guidelines

  • A maximum of four performers will be permitted as part of the activation. Consideration for a larger group can be made if a site plan is also provided with the application.
  • A performer is able to use minimal, essential equipment for their performance such as an instrument or tape/compact disc player or Bluetooth speaker to provide a low-level backing track.
  • A minimum of 1.8 metres is expected to remain clear to maintain pedestrian access. In instances when the usual width of the footpath is less than 1.8 metres then provisions are to be made to maintain pedestrian access in line with the usual footpath width.
  • One location is permitted to be used twice in a calendar month.
  • The activation can occur daily between the hours of 7am to 10pm, without the use of amplification.

We encourage commercial media producers and production companies to use our reserves and streets as filming locations. Commercial media productions may include:

  • Photography
  • Short film
  • Documentary
  • TV Program or series
  • TV advertisement

"We acknowledge and pay respect to the Traditional Owners of the land on which we stand, the Kaurna People of the Adelaide Plains. It is upon their ancestral lands that the Port Adelaide Enfield Council meets. It is also the Place of the Kardi, the Emu, whose story travels from the coast inland. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We respect their spiritual beliefs and connections to land which are of continuing importance to the living Kaurna People of today. We further acknowledge the contributions and important role that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people continue to play within our shared community."
