(1) (a) A special event permit may
be issued under this section notwithstanding the fact that the special event is to be held on
premises licensed under the provisions of section 44-3-403, 44-3-404, 44-3-413 (3), 44-3-418,
44-3-419, or 44-3-424. The holder of a special event permit issued pursuant to this subsection (1)
is responsible for any violation of this article 5 or articles 3 or 4 of this title 44.
(b) If a violation of this article 5 or article 3 of this title 44 occurs during a special event
festival and the responsible licensee can be identified, the state or local licensing authority may
charge and impose appropriate penalties on the licensee. If the responsible licensee cannot be
identified, the state licensing authority may send written notice to every licensee identified on
the permit applications and may fine each the same dollar amount. The fine shall not exceed
twenty-five dollars per licensee or two hundred dollars in the aggregate. A joint fine levied
pursuant to this subsection (1)(b) does not apply to the revocation of a licensee's license under
section 44-3-601.
(2) Nothing in this article 5 shall be construed to prohibit the sale or dispensing of malt,
vinous, or spirituous liquors on any closed street, highway, or public byway for which a special
event permit has been issued.
