When should I apply for a TEDx License?

You'll need a minimum of three months to organize your event after your license is approved to give your speakers enough time to develop and rehearse their talks. TEDx event applications can take up to eight weeks to review — great events aren't built in a day! We suggest applying at least five months prior to your anticipated event date.Remember, you will have 12 months to organize the event once you are licensed. See our Application tips page for more on applications.
