    It depends where you want to trade and when. For example if in the city centre (Dublin) you need to apply for a trading licence from the city council. If for, say Dun Laoire pier it's Dun laoire Rathdown council. AFAIK the fees vary. You also need HACCP clearance (I think BEFORE the council will grant a licence. If you intend to trade at, say, a concert/match/festival you will need to buy a pitch from the organiser and the costs vary wildly depending on the gig/numbers expected etc. A gig like Electric Picnic will set you back a few grand again depending on what you're selling, and how much space you need.

    If you need any more info PM me.
