Child performance licences and chaperone licences
A child may need a licence if they’re under school leaving age and taking part in:
- films, plays, concerts or other public performances that the audience pays to see, or that take place on licensed premises
- any sporting events or modelling assignments where the child is paid
The person in charge of running the event must apply to the child’s local council for a child performance licence. Ask the council if you’re not sure you need one.
If the child will not be with their parent or school teacher, they must be supervised by a chaperone approved by the council. Chaperones can apply for approval from the council as well
