As part of the current review taking place of Westminster City Council’s busking and street entertainment policy, the Council are looking to engage with all those that are currently licensed under the scheme or have applied for a licence previously, or those that consulted on the initial policy implementation in 2020.

They are hoping to obtain feedback from stakeholders on how the policy is working for those bound by it and to understand if the policy has been effective in addressing the issues raised by those who consulted on the adoption of the policy.

As a result, they are asking buskers and visitors to fill in a questionnaire that covers key themes such as noise nuisance, pitch locations and suitability.

The survey should take no longer than 10-15 minutes to complete and will close on 30 December 2022.

Fill in the questionnaire.
