The University has specific policies and procedures relating to the running of events at UQ sites. Organisers of events, both internal and external, can apply to use University buildings and campuses as the venue for events.
Event approval and control procedure
Event planning
When planning and conducting events, consideration must be made of OHS issues, security and emergency procedures, alcohol and food management, public vs private access, and associated noise and impact on surrounding areas.
An Event Planner document and specialist advice is available from the UQ Security Events Officer at seo@pf.uq.edu.au. If you’re planning a faculty event, please also contact med.hsw@uq.edu.au and we can help with documentation for the Event Planner, risk assessments and in some cases, first aid support at the event on the day.
