    A Class 8 license authorizes the retail sale of all alcoholic liquors to be consumed on the premises in conjunction with events of short durations, such as festivals, picnics, business, open house, banquets, or other special events, either for a structure or an outdoor location. This license is limited to occasions when groups are assembled on the premises for the promotion of some common object other than the sale and consumption of alcoholic liquor.

This license is exempt from the provisions of section 06-56.

    (c)

    The license shall state the place and times at which and during which the retail sale may take place.
