Create noise pollution

If you want to play music on the street, such as with a barrel organ, you must apply for an exemption from the municipality. In this dispensation the municipality indicates the playing location(s), the playing days and the times when you can play. Incidentally, this also applies to noise from equipment or (construction) machinery.

How does it work?

It is prohibited in the open air to have in operation a noise device, a (recreational) device or a (construction) machine or to perform actions in such a way as to cause noise nuisance to local residents or others in the vicinity. The municipality may grant an exemption for having sound equipment in use.

  1. Applicant's name and address.
  2. Location of activity.
