Will alcohol be served?
An Alcohol Service Request is required when an individual and/or organization intends to serve or sell alcohol in a UW facility. This is required for any campus room including studios.
The type of Alcohol Permit or License required will be determined by the information provided by the applicant via the Alcohol Service Request. Events with alcohol service will require either a WA state issued Banquet Permit or a Special Occasion License. Alternately, the applicant may need to present the UUFC with a Caterer’s Business License with Liquor Endorsement when a Caterer is involved.
Note that the permit/license only permits the consumption of alcohol within the location noted on the form. To ensure a superior learning environment, CBE does not allow alcohol to be served in CBE classrooms.
Will your UW event be open to the public or is this a non UW event?
