Press Release: Marlborough District Council

Although many Marlborough events have sadly had to be cancelled, some smaller events will continue to be held at Council’s parks and reserves.

If there are less than 500 attendees and the event organisers have a health and safety management plan that aligns with current Ministry of Health guidelines for COVID-19, they can go ahead.

It is the responsibility of event organisers themselves to cancel an event.

These are issues the Crown is Treaty-bound to address.
