Instant Performing Licence (IPL) - Add on
An Instant Performing Licence applies to performances where there is either no entry charge or the maximum charge/voluntary contribution is less than £1.50 per seat. The IPL allows any number of performances within 12 months of the product purchase date. Purchasing an Instant Performing Licence may save you money but these licences must be purchased at the same time as a Director's Pack. When purchasing/ordering an IPL there is no need to complete the performing licence application form, as a pop-up IPL add-on order button will appear when you order a Director's Pack.
You need to use the performing licence order form if the average ticket/contribution price is £1.50 or more, if you have bought a Director's Pack without a licence and now decide to perform the show and /or are repeating performing the show in a subsequent year.
