Event Protocol
In August 2002 Burlington City Council approved a set of protocol guidelines. The Event Protocol was designed to assist city staff in managing and organizing events that include dignitaries or participation from other countries or levels of government.
Organizers of events involving the Mayor and/or members of Council and/or staff members who are representing the city in an official capacity, shall observe the rules of protocol as outlined in the City of Burlington Event Protocol.
The City of Burlington follows the protocol guidelines established by the federal and provincial governments.
