How Do I Obtain a Concession Permit?

A City permit is required to sell items within a City of Bowie park. In order to obtain a concession permit, you must first obtain and provide proof of:

• A valid Prince George's County Health Department Permit (required for all applicants)
• A valid City Peddler's Permit (required only for Mobile Concession Permit)

Once you have obtained the necessary permit(s) listed above, please submit a Concessionaires Permit Application to the City Hall window labeled "Park Permits". For questions, contact Sheri Beach at sbeach@cityofbowie.org.
