Licences at various locations
Vessels
Where a premises licence is sought in connection with a boat or ship, the main focus will be on the licensable activities and not the safe navigation of the vessel. This is covered under separate legislation. The Environment Agency or the British Waterways Board will be consulted on all applications.
Vehicles
Where a licence is sought in connection with a vehicle that is parked or stationary, such as a mobile bar selling alcohol or providing hot food after 11pm, the application may only be considered in relation to the location. Therefore, a person cannot sell from a vehicle at a series of different locations (such as moving from place to place for different events) unless there is a premises licence in respect of the vehicle at each location at which a sale is made in, on or from it.
A temporary event notice (TEN) may need to be applied for under certain circumstances. Please contact Licensing if you need more information.
Trains and aircraft
Railway vehicles and aircraft on journeys are exempt from the licensing regime. However, out of commission aircraft and railway carriages used or converted as restaurants and bars that remain in a fixed position will require a premises licence.
