Council approves Applefest, Pumpkin Fest and one-day liquor expansions for Main Street events
Summary
Council approved multiple special-event and one-day liquor/entertainment licenses, including St. Joseph Church's Applefest and several Main Street businesses for specified dates, contingent on meeting stipulated conditions.
The Burrillville Town Council approved several special-event entertainment and one-day expansions of premises for alcohol service at its Sept. 24 meeting, following a public hearing and administrative review of stipulations.
Approvals included St. Joseph Church's Applefest dinner (11/09/2025) and multiple Main Street businesses seeking one-day liquor expansions tied to scheduled downtown events (dates and premises were listed during the hearing). The council confirmed stipulations must be met as part of each license and closed the public hearing before taking the motions, which were approved by voice vote.
A small number of applicants were present at the hearing and a local business representative briefly addressed the council in support of the downtown events. The council's approval enables organizers to proceed with event planning subject to the conditions listed in the license motions.
