York is a walled city, situated at the confluence of the Rivers Ouse and Foss in North Yorkshire, England. The city has a rich heritage and has provided the backdrop to major political events throughout much of its two millennia of existence. York operates a 'Busking Badge' registration scheme for street entertainers, which is based on a balance between various statutory laws and a local by-law which gives certain powers to members of the public. The scheme sets down minimum standards that can be expected of entertainers performing on York's streets. All buskers must register under the scheme before performing in the city.
