Bazaar Licenses

Bazaar Licenses

A bazaar is a sale of goods held to raise money for charity. There are four types of lottery events that are permitted at bazaars:

  • Wheel of fortune - three wheel maximum ($2 maximum for individual bets)
  • Bingo (not exceeding $5,500 in prizes)
  • Raffles and penny auction raffles (not exceeding $50,000 in prizes)

Applying for a Bazaar License 

  1. Ensure your organization's eligibility is up-to-date with the Municipality
  2. Review the Bazaar License Terms and Conditions
  3. Complete the Bazaar License Application and the Bazaar Application Checklist and gather supporting documentation
  4. Submit the Application form and the supporting documentation to the Clerk's department for review
Submitting a Bazaar Report

Following the commencement of your event your organization must submit a Lottery Report within 30 days of holding the lottery. Your report can be submitted to the Clerk's department by mail, fax, email, or in-person at the municipal office.

The report must be submitted with the following:

  • A list of prize winner(s)
  • Itemized list of administrative costs (license fee, ticket purchase/printing, etc.)
  • Lottery trust account bank statements and copies of cheques and invoices for expenses and use of lottery proceeds
  • One unsold ticket (this is not needed if it is a "rip ticket" for penny tables)

To assist with the information and documentation to be provided, please refer to the Central Huron Lottery Report Checklist or contact the Clerk's department.
