#These shall be held on the first or second full weekend of the following months:
#*March - Autumn Crown
#*May - New Year's Coronation
#*September - Spring Crown
#*November - Mid-year Coronation
#In exceptional cases, the Council of the Purse has discretion to accept an event bid specifying a date which is up to 14 days before or after the weekends noted above.

#Other events shall not be scheduled on any date where a Crown Tournament or Coronation is to be held without express permission of the Crown.
===Event {{Edit}}h{{/Edit}}osting===
#The hosting of the four official {{Edit}}c{{/Edit}}rown {{Edit}}e{{/Edit}}vents shall be equitably distributed among the branches of Lochac as far as is possible.
===Bids===
#Bids from groups wishing to host a {{Edit}}c{{/Edit}}rown {{Edit}}e{{/Edit}}vent shall be collected by the {{Edit}}Kingdom{{/Edit}} Seneschal.
#The Council of the Purse shall choose between the bids at least nine (9) months before the {{Edit}}<del>Kingdom</del> crown e{{/Edit}}vent, and earlier if they think advisable; but in no case shall the decision be made more than eighteen months before the proposed {{Edit}}e{{/Edit}}vent.
#In extenuating circumstances, bids may be approved up to six (6) months before the {{Edit}}<del>Kingdom</del> crown{{/Edit}} event.
===Budget===
#All bids for {{Edit}}c{{/Edit}}rown {{Edit}}e{{/Edit}}vents must include a detailed budget.
#The Council of the Purse may reject a bid entirely based on the proposed budget, however it may seek modifications to that budget in preference to rejection.
#Any modification to the budget must be agreed to by the Council of the Purse and the bidding group.
#After the budget for a {{Edit}}c{{/Edit}}rown {{Edit}}e{{/Edit}}vent has been approved by the Council of the Purse, no changes shall be made to the budget without the approval of the {{Edit}}<del>Kingdom</del>Chancellor of the{{/Edit}} Exchequer.
===Finances===
The steward of each {{Edit}}c{{/Edit}}rown {{Edit}}e{{/Edit}}vent shall submit a final financial report to the {{Edit}}<del>Lochac</del> Chancellor of the{{/Edit}} Exchequer within two months of the holding of the Event.
If the report is not received in this time, the group may not hold any official events until a satisfactory report is received by the {{Edit}}<del>Lochac</del> Chancellor of the{{/Edit}} Exchequer.
===Inability for the Crown Tournament or Coronation to be held===
#In the event that the Crown Tournament or Coronation must be cancelled due to extenuating circumstances, such as but not limited to a {{Edit}}p{{/Edit}}ublic {{Edit}}h{{/Edit}}ealth {{Edit}}e{{/Edit}}mergency or {{Edit}}s{{/Edit}}ignificant {{Edit}}n{{/Edit}}atural {{Edit}}d{{/Edit}}isaster, and cannot feasibly be rescheduled or relocated within the allowable schedule period per {{Comment}}VIII.1{{/Comment}}, the events will occur as per {{Comment}}VIII.1.vi.a and VIII.1.vi.b{{/Comment}}.
