Entertainment permit approved by Sacramento City Council

( — The Sacramento City Council approved a new Limited Entertainment Permit that was created to support the city's nighttime, social and creative economies, according to the City of Sacramento. Video Above: GoldenSky country music festival canceled for 2025 Last Tuesday's approval allows smaller businesses to host events without the weight of costs, applications and requirements applied to larger venues. The initiative was established by the Entertainment Service Division and the Office of Nighttime Economy. 'The new Limited Entertainment Permit is a significant step in supporting Sacramento's creative economy,' said Tina Lee-Vogt, Manager of the Office of Nighttime Economy. 'By simplifying the permitting process, we're making it easier for businesses to host live entertainment while ensuring compliance with the City's noise and occupancy standards. This initiative creates more opportunities for local artists and enhances the city's social vibrancy.' Stockton Police share Your Way Registry during World Autism Awareness Day Businesses with an occupancy of 299 or less, can offer events as a secondary operation, according to officials. Establishments will be able to offer live music that ends as late as 10 p.m. on weekdays and 11 p.m. on weekends. Barriers for venues outside of downtown and midtown will also be reduced, allowing entertainment citywide. The permit comes after the Sociable City Assessment and the Sacramento Music Census shared their need for entertainment that creates growth in the local and music scene. The city council will revisit the permit to establish associated fees. An online permitting process is also being worked on to simplify applications for city staff and applicants. Public meetings will also take place to evaluate sound policies, according to the city. The program is expected to launch in May. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
