The Municipal Law Enforcement & Licensing Services Department issues Lottery Licences to eligible charitable organizations for Bingo, Break-Open tickets, Raffles, and other lottery events. Lottery Licences are required if money is paid (or consideration is given) for a chance to win a prize.
The issuing of lottery licences is regulated through the Town of Cobourg's Lottery Licensing By-law.
Examples of lottery events include raffles, 50/50, share the wealth, chase the ace, door prize draws.
Silent Auctions do not require a lottery licence.
Contact the AGCO for Lottery Events with prizes over $50,000 or online raffles.
