Jupiter, FL Special Events & Permits: Street Fair Rules (2026)

Subsection (l) covers A-1 events, sidewalk sales, grand openings, and promotional events, that would not otherwise trigger a Class A or B special event permit but include outdoor music, radio broadcasts, or outdoor fundraising as a component. Applicants must notify the planning and zoning department two business days before the event with its dates, times, and duration; no advance application form or fee is charged for a straightforward A-1 event. If staff reasonably expects a significant impact, the department can instead require a full Class A or B special event permit, or can deny or postpone the event to allow time to process that permit.

The frequency limit in subsection (4) caps a single business at six sidewalk sale, grand opening, or promotional events per calendar year, with a maximum of five days per event, and the combined duration of all six events cannot exceed 24 calendar days in that year even if each individual event stays under five days. The same subsection also requires proof that the applicant has the property owner's permission before the event, and any retail sale tied to a sidewalk sale must be conducted under a valid town business tax receipt for that property. Alcohol sales or distribution are barred outside the hosting business's principal structure unless the location already holds a license to serve alcohol on-site.
