Yes.. and if you do dance with out a "Cabaret License" you get a
bunch of Fire Marshals showing up and shutting it down..
In many ways Cabaret License is a way to regulate who has dance
venues. Just like the liquor license I believe you have to jump
through some pretty big hoops or maybe some not so big hoops at city
hall to get this.
ON the other hand rival party promoters will use the absence of a
License to call in an illegal dance party.. shutting it down and
forcing people to attend their event instead..
