Private Non-Sale Annual Special Event Licence

Liquor Bulletin

November 6, 2025

Effective immediately, amendments to Section 4.7 of AGLC’s Private Special Event Licence (SEL) Policies and Guidelines will come into effect. The amendments enable private businesses, that do not otherwise have a Class A or B liquor licence, to offer occasional complimentary liquor service to their private members/guests through an annual Private Non-Sale SEL licence.

The SEL policies may be accessed online.

We encourage interested applicants to read the relevant policy for full licensing requirements.

If you have any questions regarding SEL policies, please contact AGLC’s Regulatory Services Division at SEL@aglc.ca or call AGLC Customer Care at 1-800-272-8876.
