MLCC On The Road

Fundraisers, Festivals, and Fairs - Oh My!

Michigan Liquor Control Commission (MLCC)

With the summer event season right around the corner, we explore how nonprofit organizations can apply for Special Licenses to sell and serve alcohol at their fundraising events and how on-premises licensees (bars, restaurants, hotels) can add a Temporary Permit for outdoor service for their special events.  We discuss who can apply, what are common mistakes to avoid when submitting an application for a Special License or Temporary Permit, and the timeframe for applying (hint: earlier is always better).

For questions about Special Licenses and Temporary Permits, please email the MLCC's Licensing Division: lara-mlcc-licensing-information@michigan.gov.
