What is a Tag Day?
A Tag Day is an event that permits a charitable, patriotic or religious organization based in Burlington to fundraise in front of a local business.
Do I need Approval from the City for a Tag Day?
Burlington City Council has decided that Tag Days in Burlington for all charitable and not-for-profit (NFP) organizations no longer need City approval since they are conducted on private property.
The City of Burlington will no longer provide letters to approve or deny a Tag Day event. The coordination of these events is now between you on behalf of your charity/NFP and the property owner where you’d like to ask for donations.
Who should I contact to hold a Tag Day?
You should contact the owner of the property where you’d like to ask for donations.
You do need their permission to be on their property.
If you have any questions about no longer needing City approval for Tag Day event, contact building@burlington.ca.
