Alcohol Sales, Consumption May Soon Be Allowed At More Places In Camden County

CAMDEN, NJ — City parks and other public places may soon be allowed to host sales of alcohol during designated events.

On Monday, City Council introduced an ordinance that would amend Chapter 181 of the City Code and allow alcoholic beverages to be bought and consumed on-site at concerts, festivals, and other gatherings.

This move would apply to fully, and partially, public areas when approved in advance by the Mayor or his designee and the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board.

This would include beer, wine, hard seltzers, and malt alcoholic drinks.

Individuals would only be allowed to buy two drinks at a time.

The next Camden City Council meeting is scheduled for April 14 on the second floor of City Hall at 5 p.m.
