  Getting an ABC License for your Event

Virginia

The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control has developed an Internet Banquet License Application that allows you to apply and pay for a banquet license from the convenience of your home or office. You may use your credit card via the Web.

Please note that you may NOT apply online at this time for the two Specialty Banquet Licenses. The Mixed Beverage Club Event license and Manufacturer's Multi-Day Banquet Special Event license must be applied for using the hard copy application form.

Apply for your VA ABC Banquet License Here
Follow the instructions on each page, complete the application, and submit.

Banquet (also known as one-day) licenses are issued to individuals for private events where alcohol is provided at no charge to guests, such as wedding receptions, retirement parties, etc.
