Oxford City Council is inviting public feedback on busking and street entertainment in the city centre to inform a review of the Buskers Code of Practice.
As part of the Oxford City Centre Action Plan, the review aims to strike the right balance between supporting street entertainment and addressing the needs of local businesses, residents and public safety.
The updated guidance will help set clear expectations, maintain high standards and create a welcoming and well-managed city centre.
The Council supports busking and street entertainment as a way of adding life, creativity and vibrancy to the city centre, but acknowledges it must be done in a way that works for everyone.
Have your say by visiting the Council’s consultation portal.
Comment
"Buskers and street performers play an important role in Oxford’s cultural scene, and we want to make sure they continue to entertain us in the city centre. We need to make sure this is as positive and enjoyable for everyone as possible. This consultation will help us understand what is and what isn’t working, so please have your say - tell us what's great and what could be better.”
Councillor Alex Hollingsworth, Cabinet Member for Planning and Culture
