If you are planning to hold an event in Caldwell County that takes place outside the limits of a municipality, you may be required to apply for a Mass Gathering Permit.
Mass Gathering Permits are required if:
- The event is expected to attract more than 2,500 people, or
- If the event is expected to attract more than 500 people and 51% of those in attendance are expected to be under 21 years old and it is expected that alcoholic beverages will be sold, served or consumed around the gathering.
- If the event is a greyhound or horse race that expects to attract at least 100 people AND is being held at a location at which parimutuel wagering is authorized.
