The Intoxicating Liquor Licensing Act and other regulations require bars, nightclubs and events to keep sound levels at a level that does not disturb neighbours. Reports from local authorities note that sound levels should not exceed about 70 decibels and establishments must soundproof their premises. Playing music or causing a disturbance beyond these limits can lead to enforcement action.
