• Summary

  If you want to use the same trading space every week and avoid the daily casual allocation you will need to apply for a licence agreement.
  
  Casual trading spaces at the New Smithfield Sunday Car Boot & Market are allocated on a first come, first served basis so all you need to do is turn up on Sunday and join the queue at the back of the market. However, please be aware that this does not include the sale of fresh food (e.g. catering units, ice-cream vans or butchers meat) which is restricted to licencees.

• Fees

  A reservation charge of £120.00 + VAT per space is payable before completion of the licence agreement and issue of the early entry permit.
  
  Market Occupancy charges will apply, see attached document:

• Validity / Renewals

  Licences are issued on a six-monthly basis for a maximum of two spaces. Licences are reviewed bi-annually on 31 January and 31 July.

  Where there are no vacant spaces we may keep applications on file for a maximum 3 months, and consider in future vacancies. Following approval of an application for regular occupancy, the applicant will be notified and a licence agreement will be posted to the applicant for signing, with instruction to pay the initial reservation charge. Once the licence has been completed, and the reservation charge paid, an early entry permit will be posted to the applicant within seven days thereafter.

• Will Tacit Consent Apply

  Tacit Consent will apply. This means that you will be able to act as though your application is granted if you have not heard from Manchester City Council by the end of the target period.
  Please note Tacit Consent will only apply once a full application has been submitted and you have received an acknowledgment from Manchester City Council.
