Noise Regulation 18 - Approval for a Non-Complying Event

If noise emissions from an event are likely to exceed assigned noise levels and the event would lose its character or usefulness if it had to meet the assigned levels, a local government CEO can issue an approval and set conditions for a non-complying event, these may include but are not limited to:

  • Amplified Concerts
  • Motorbike Races / Shows
  • Car Races / Burnout Competitions
  • Jet Boat Races
  • Fireworks

Noise from “agricultural shows, fairs, fetes, exhibitions and like events” is “exempt noise” that is not required to meet the allowable noise limits. A noise regulation 18 approval is therefore not required in these circumstances.

Regulation 18 Application Fees:

Payment of the following fees is required upon Regulation 18 application.

Regulation 18 application fee (where application is >60 days prior to event) $1,000.00
Late Payment fee (in addition to the application fee and where
application is 21 days prior to the event)		 $250

NB This fee is waived for Non-For Profit and Charitable Groups

An application form must be completed and submitted at least 60 days before the event and be accompanied by the application fee.

  • events that require attendee participation such as, fun runs, marathons, surfing competitions, surf life saving, motorbike racing, bicycle races, swimming competitions
