Parades and Processions

Community Involvement

The Council must keep a current list of notifications (32KB MS Word doc) and a list of the processions held or prohibited 24.02.2025. These arrangements are to allow the public to find out which marches happen regularly and which ones are likely to happen in the future in order that they can make representations if they wish to.

Should you wish to make representations to any of the notifications on the proposed list, please do so by email to licensing.board@dundeecity.gov.uk alternatively by post to the Head of Democratic & Legal Services, 21 City Square, Dundee, DD1 3BY.  Representations must be lodge within 14 days of the date of receipt of the notification.

Making a Notification

Organisers of processions need to give 28 days notice.


It is requested early engagement with DCC Roads Dept to discuss adequate traffic management / control / road closures if walking on a public road. Dundee City Council will then forward your notification to Police Scotland. Please be aware that Police Scotland may not be able to provide police officers for road closures. It wuill be the responsibility of the organiser to make necessary road closure arrangements to maximise the safety of procession participants and other road users.
