Visit the Community Development Department's applications, forms and handouts webpage to obtain a Temporary Minor Special Event Permit application and fee information. 

The City of Hermosa Beach provides an administrative permit process allowing ‘minor special events’ on private property to encourage activities that promote or benefit businesses or the community, but that do not cause significant impacts. Minor special events are allowed in C-1, C-2, C-3, M-1, SPA 7, SPA-8 and SPA-11 zones. They are allowed in Residential zones on property developed with nonresidential uses. They may also be allowed on school district property with approval of the school principal.
