Multiple Requests for Event License on the Same Date

If the Commission receives more than one request for an event license submitted pursuant to 523 CMR 10.02 for the same date, the Commission may issue a license for both events provided that all applications are complete and the Commission deems it to be in the best interests of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to license more than one event. In making this determination, the Commission shall consider, amongst other things, the geographic locations of the proposed events and the availability of Commission staff and officials. In the event that it is deemed contrary to the interests of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to license more than one event on one date, a license will be issued to the first applicant that submits a complete application.
