Third Party Events
Be involved!
Our historic sites lie at the heart of local communities around the country. Many of these places regularly open their doors to host all kinds of events.
What counts as a Third Party event?
If your event
- needs very little or no equipment
- takes place on one or two days
- is organised by a non-profit organisation
- benefits the community
then it qualifies as a third party event.
We are currently receiving an increased number of applications to hold events. We kindly ask that you allow a minimum of 3 months notice for any prospective event requests.
