Special Events Team Meeting

The Special Events Team oversees the permitting and planning for special events and festivals in the City of Boise and hosts bi-monthly meetings to discuss event proposals between the event organizer and city departments and other agencies. Meetings typically last two hours, but can vary based on agenda. 

All public meetings are held in a hybrid format allowing both virtual and in-person attendance to ensure compliance with the Idaho Open Meetings Law. Additionally, the meeting location is accessible for those with physical disabilities. Participants may request reasonable accommodations, such as a language interpreter, from the City of Boise to facilitate participation in the meeting. If you require assistance with accommodation, please contact us at CommunityEngagement@cityofboise.org or call (208) 972-8500.
