Late night levy
We introduced the late night levy on 1 November 2017.
The levy allows us to raise revenue by charging licensees who are authorised to sell alcohol between midnight and 6am.
If you hold a premises licenses or club premises certificates and you’re authorised to sell alcohol between 1 minute past midnight and 6am on one or more days in a year, you’ll be required to pay an additional annual fee.
The levy applies to all of Hackney.
