Special Events
Special Event Permit
A Special Event Permit is required for certain events in Ephrata. This permit will help you and the permitting department understand exactly what is being requested so that personnel can be scheduled appropriately, to ensure that all legal requirements are met, and, if necessary, to inform the community of what may affect their daily routine.
Special Event Permit Application Packet
This packet was written with the intent of meeting the needs of large events. If your event is a small event, much of the information may not apply to you.
Please submit your permit application 60 days prior to your event, at a minimum of 45 days prior.
Facility Rentals
Residents and the general public at large are able to rent several city facilities for private events. Please review the information under the Facility Rentals* page and contact the Parks and Recreation Department Staff for further questions.
*The Facility Rentals page is under construction right now. Please call Josh Johnson directly at 509-754-4601 ext. 129
