​Whether or not an event requires the approval of the Village Board of Trustees depends on its scope. Events that incorporate fewer than 5,000 people (including spectators and participants) will be approved administratively through the Village Manager's Office. Events larger than 5,000 people and/or events requesting use of The Glen Town Center parking decks require approval by the Board of Trustees.
Please note that special event applications MUST be submitted at least 30 days prior to the event, and at least 45 days before events with 5,000 or more participants and/or for events on The Glen Town Center parking decks.
Special events application
A special events permit application is required for certain events. For any specific questions regarding the process, contact Lisa Goodwin, Executive Assistant, at (847) 904-4370 or lisag@glenview.il.us.
Since May 2010, management of Gallery Park -- and park events there -- has been under the jurisdiction of the Glenview Park District. For more information, or to book an event, contact the Park District's Facility Supervisor at (224) 521-2562.
Film & motion picture permit
A Film/Motion Picture Permit is required for any filming project taken place within the boundaries of the Village. The permit is not approved until confirmation is received from the Village Manager's Office. Contact (847) 904-4370 for more information.
