The City of Edmonton is currently accepting applications for large-scale combative sports events. Venues must have a capacity of 5,000 or more to be considered for a combative sports event in Edmonton.
A number of application forms and processes are currently being revised. For the most up-to-date application forms and processes, please contact the Executive Director at ecsc@edmonton.ca.
The Edmonton Combative Sports Commission (ECSC) is a Council Committee composed of up to 7 volunteer citizen members. This governance body operates within the jurisdiction established by City Council through the Edmonton Combative Sports Commission Bylaw 15638 . The ECSC supplements the regulatory provisions in the Combative Sports Bylaw 15594 through further regulations on combative sports matters such as licensing, conduct, qualifications and contests. The ECSC also serves as an appeal body for decisions made by the Executive Director regarding licensing and permitting.
Executive Director
The Executive Director is an employee of the City and, pursuant to Bylaw 15638, is responsible for all operational decisions about combative sports in Edmonton. The Executive Director is not a member of the ECSC; however, the ECSC's regulations set additional rules to be applied by the Executive Director and other combative sports officials.
Information about Serving on the Commission
Online applications to fill Commission vacancies are accepted in the annual December/January Recruitment Campaign.
