Approached a bunch of restaurants in my area today--many good leads One that just opened was very intersted in table-side magical entertainment, but the owner said they don't have an entertainment license yet. I left them my card and pamphlet. I didn't realize a restaurant needed a license for Magical entertainment-- I always thought that was for live music due to noise restrictions, etc. Is this maybe just a polite way of saying they're not interested, or should I follow up in a couple months? Anyways, I appreciate the advice, as I am new approaching restaurants for this. Onward to the next restaurants tomorrow!!!

Contact City Attorney Thomas Carr thomas.carr@seattle.gov and ask him what your rights are. Please post the results here. I am interested to know.

It seems from a short online search the entertainment license apply only to music and amplified entertainment.
