The Golden Beam, which is located on Headingley Lane in Headingley, had previously applied for five Temporary Event Notices (TENs) to permit the JD Wetherspoon pub to admit those taking part in the famous pub crawl.

TENs allow licensed venues to temporarily alter or extend their licenses for special occasions.

Each venue is permitted a total of 15 TENs in any one year, meaning that the Golden Beam was set to use one-third of its annual allowance.
