Events Licensing System - Department of Culture and Tourism Abu Dhabi

Events Licensing System

Abu Dhabi's Events Licensing System (Decree No. 54/2016) is a unified platform for registering and licensing all events in the Emirate, covering recreational, marketing, sporting, artistic, educational, touristic, health, religious or political activity. It centralises approvals across government entities and builds a database of activities to avoid date and location conflicts.

Applications are submitted through the Abu Dhabi Events Licensing System via the TAMM platform, with events featuring speakers requiring submission at least five working days in advance. Registration is restricted to gallery, facility, mall and venue owners, as well as event organisers holding a relevant trade licence. Any enquiries can be directed to the Abu Dhabi Contact Centre at 800 555.
