Hosting a festival, fundraiser, or community event in Alberta that includes serving alcohol? This Alberta Special Event Liquor Licence application template streamlines the entire process, helping event organizers navigate AGLC requirements with confidence.

### Why You Need a Special Event Licence

Under Alberta's Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Act, any organization planning to serve, sell, or provide alcohol at a temporary event must obtain a Special Event Licence from the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission (AGLC). This applies to festivals, charity fundraisers, cultural celebrations, sporting events, weddings, and community gatherings where alcohol will be available.

The application process involves providing detailed information about your organization, event logistics, alcohol service plans, and responsible service measures—all of which this template is designed to capture efficiently.

### Who Should Use This Form

This template is ideal for:

 - **Nonprofit organizations** hosting charity galas, fundraising dinners, and community events
 - **Festival organizers** planning music festivals, food and wine events, and cultural celebrations
 - **Community groups** organizing sports tournaments, agricultural fairs, and holiday celebrations
 - **Corporate event planners** coordinating client appreciation events and company milestones
 - **School and alumni associations** hosting reunions and fundraising events

Whether you're a seasoned event coordinator or organizing your first fundraiser, this form simplifies compliance with Alberta's liquor licensing requirements.

### Key Features of This Template

This comprehensive application form collects all the essential information required by AGLC, including:

 - Complete applicant and organization details with business registration numbers
 - Comprehensive event information including dates, times, location, and expected attendance
 - Detailed alcohol service plans covering beverage types, sources, and pricing
 - Responsible service measures including staff training, security arrangements, and ID checking procedures
 - Site layout and service area descriptions to ensure proper event planning
 - Insurance documentation and required declarations

The structured format ensures you don't miss critical details that could delay your application, while conditional logic only shows relevant questions based on your specific event type.

### How Paperform Makes Licensing Applications Easier

Built specifically for organizations that need professional, compliant forms, Paperform transforms the traditionally tedious liquor licence application process into a streamlined digital experience.

**For Event Organizers:** Create branded applications that reflect your event's professionalism. Use conditional logic to show only relevant questions based on event type, reducing confusion for applicants. Collect electronic signatures for authorizations and declarations, and automatically generate PDF submissions ready for AGLC review.

**For Multiple Events:** If you manage several events throughout the year, duplicate this template and customize it for each occasion. Save time by pre-filling organization information that remains consistent across applications.

**Seamless Workflow Integration with Stepper:** Connect your licence application to [Stepper](https://stepper.io), Paperform's AI-native workflow automation tool, to manage the entire licensing process end-to-end. When an application is submitted, automatically create follow-up tasks for your team, send confirmation emails to applicants, log details in your project management system, and set reminders for application deadlines and renewal dates. Stepper ensures nothing falls through the cracks during your busy event planning season.

**Payment Collection:** If your organization charges application processing fees internally, you can enable Stripe, PayPal, or Square to collect payments directly within the form, keeping all financial transactions organized and traceable.

### Alberta-Specific Compliance Considerations

This template is designed with Alberta's regulatory framework in mind, addressing key AGLC requirements:

 - Proper identification of licence holder and responsible individuals
 - Clear delineation of service areas and event boundaries
 - Adequate security and crowd management plans
 - Compliance with responsible service requirements including SmartServe or ProServe trained staff
 - Insurance coverage meeting AGLC minimum standards
 - Proper procedures for preventing minors from accessing alcohol

Remember that applications must typically be submitted at least 30 days before your event date, though processing times can vary during peak event seasons.
