Description

Prerequisites

The temporary use of rooms for an event with more than 200 visitors must be notified if

• the rooms do not comply with the regulations of the Ordinance on Places of Assembly and
• a permit under building law as a place of assembly, which includes the type of event intended, is not available.

Procedure

The notification with any necessary documents must be submitted to the responsible lower building supervisory authority.

As part of the notification procedure, the building supervisory authority checks whether the event can be held as planned. It confirms receipt of the notification to the operator or organizer and informs him whether it intends to take measures for safety.

Special notes

If it is foreseeable that a room that was not originally planned and approved as a meeting room will now be used for holding events not only temporarily but on a regular recurring basis (usually from the sixth time per year per venue), this requires building law approval of a corresponding change of use.

Deadlines

There is no general, Bavaria-wide deadline for this type of notification. However, this should be coordinated in good time beforehand with the lower building supervisory authority responsible on site.

Required documents

• The documents to be submitted, if any, may differ depending on the type and size of the event and the venue.

  This should be coordinated in good time in advance with the locally responsible lower building supervisory authority.

Fees

• Confirmation of receipt of the notification is free of charge.

  The possible ordering of measures for safety is subject to a fee.

Legal bases

• § 47 Verordnung über den Bau und Betrieb von Versammlungsstätten (Versammlungsstättenverordnung – VStättV)
