Tariff 4A1 - Popular Music Concerts (Per Event Licence)
Your licence fees are based on a number of criteria contained under each tariff. If you wish to review the criteria and details for this tariff, view PDF Tariffs. To access the Application For Licence Forms view PDF Forms.

How to calculate your licence fees per concert:
The licence fee for each concert depends on whether admission is charged. For paid admission, the fee is a percentage of gross ticket sales (exclusive of sales and amusement taxes), while for free admission, the fee is a percentage of what is paid to the performing artists. A minimum licence fee of $35 per concert applies to both paid and free admission events.
