Apply for a Temporary Liquor License

Visit the OLCC's Special Events web page for detailed information and up-to-date forms for temporary sales liquor licenses.

The City of Portland Liquor Program is now accepting Temporary Sales Licenses/Special Event Licenses only where the holder of the special event license is a manufacturer of alcoholic beverages in Oregon and will sell only factory-sealed containers of alcohol for off-premises consumption.

We process applications within 14 days from the date we receive your completed application. If you need a quicker processing time, you must email a request to liquor@portlandoregon.gov. 

Rescheduling of Temporary Sale License (TSL) events will begin after the State of Emergency ends. Go here for more TSL details.

Fee: $35
