Authorization to Apply for a Banquet Permit
Banquet Permit Form > (Opens in new window)
Good news!
The UW Authorization to Apply for a Banquet Permit form is now available online.
Like the online Request for Use of University Facilities form (RUUF), with which you may be familiar, this form is filled out online and processed through email. After the applicant pushes "Submit Request," the form is emailed to the Venue Operator (the person in charge of your event space) and then to the Use of University Facilities Committee for final approval. After UUFC approval, you receive an email notifying you that you are authorized to serve alcohol at your event. You also receive a copy of all the terms and conditions you agreed to when you filled out the form, as a reminder and for your files. The applicant is updated by email as your form moves through the process.
At the end of the process, take two copies of your authorization email to the Washington State Liquor Store to buy your $10 Washington State Liquor Control Board Banquet Permit. We assume that you keep one copy for your files.
