Information for event organisers

Arranging your event

Gwynedd is an area where a wide variety of events are held each year.

On this page you will find information and guidance to help you plan and organise your event in Gwynedd.


Events in Gwynedd

Events succeeded in encouraging community pride and engagement but they have also made a valuable contribution to the economic regeneration and wellbeing of the County and have raised the profile of Gwynedd on a national and international level.

The success of any event whatever its size, duration or content depends largely on the dedication and sheer hard work of those people who give of their time and energy to organising the activities. Cyngor Gwynedd recognise that the organisers of any event need support and resource to meet the demands, constraints and responsibilities that organising such events require. To help address these issues Cyngor Gwynedd want to support event organisers plan and deliver a wide range of accessible profitable and sustainable events in the towns, cities and villages of the County.

The event organisation field is influenced by different acts and regulations. Therefore we have provided an interactive guide book on organising events in Gwynedd. The Purple Guide Book prepared by the UK Events Forum could also be useful for you:
