Busking in Stockton Town Centre
We welcome street entertainers, sometimes known as buskers, who provide colour, interest and vibrancy to the environment. A busking permit scheme is used in Stockton Town Centre. This helps to outline our requirements of people who wish to busk and also ensures a minimum standard that can be expected of entertainers performing here. There is no charge for this scheme.
If you would like to register as a busker, please download the registration form and the Busking Guide document. Return the completed form to us, along with 2 passport photos. We will then invite you to audition and if we are happy that all is acceptable, we will issue your 12-month busking license for Stockton Town Centre.
