Olympic/Paralympic Liquor License Application  Process and Fees

Certain organizations and agencies directly associated with the Games may apply for an Olympic/Paralympic liquor license. These are:

• VANOC and its food and beverage contractors
  
• International Olympic committee and International Paralympic Committee
• Official Games sponsors
• Federal, provincial, territorial governments of Canada, including Crown corporations
• Local governments with a direct connection to the Games; e.g. Whistler, London, Sochi
• National, state or provincial government of an official participant country
• International Sports Federations, National Olympic and Paralympic Committees
  

An eligible organization (or their agent) applies to the provincial Liquor Control and Licensing Branch. Click here for more information and forms.

Once the LCLB had determined the eligibility and suitability of the applicant the application will be referred to the RMOW for comment, either from Council or from staff. The usual municipal application form (or a slight variation) will be used. As approved by Council, a municipal processing fee will apply. The municipal process and fees were approved by Council on July 7. To view the report, click here.
