Facility Rentals

• Our office does not officially book any rental reservations until 3 months prior to the event date. After that date is booked, you are required to sign a rental contract and provide a non-refundable deposit to hold the space within 2 weeks of receiving the contract.

• We do not hold any rental events during the week of Tennessee home football games, the day of Tennessee home basketball games, or the day of any special event occurring at Thompson Boling Arena. Special events occurring on campus are on a case-by-case basis as they may or may not conflict with the logistics of a rental event. 

• All rental prices include a 3-hour rental of the facility, with an hour and a half before for set-up and one hour after for clean up. Any additional hours will be charged an additional fee.

• You must provide your own tables and chairs for the Skybox Common Areas and Tennessee Terrace.
