Reserving an Outdoor Space
Herty Field, President's Garden, New College Lawn,
DW Brooks Mall & Jaworski Amphitheater

Outdoor spaces are requested through an on-line request form. Please read the following information before proceeding to the request form. This information is a very abbreviated version of the Outdoor Space Usage Policy. You are responsible for knowing and informing members of your organization of all facility policies.

Reservation requests must be submitted at least 5 business days prior to the event. Requests for meetings or events requiring personnel (security, early building opening, etc.) should be submitted at least 12 business days prior to the event. Requests submitted after these time periods may be denied. If your request is approved a confirmation will be e-mailed to you. Please remember your reservation is not final and your event location should not be publicized until you have received a confirmation from Campus Reservations.

UGA departments & registered student organizations may request reservations one year prior to the date of their event. There is no charge for use of these areas.

Campus Reservations is not able to provide equipment for the outdoor spaces. University departments can contact Physical Plant directly to make arrangements for equipment. Student organizations should arrange for equipment with off-campus rental centers. Regardless of where you get your equipment please check with the Campus Reservations staff to ensure enough time has been set aside for the delivery and pick up of the equipment. If using a tent please tell your vendor to provide a frame tent. Pole tents are prohibited due to the potential for damage to the turf and underground utilities. Dance floors are not allowed due to the damage they do to the lawn.

The outdoor spaces do not have bathrooms. It would be a good idea to arrange to have a port-a-john(s) on hand. Bathroom trailers are prohibited.

Amplified sound is only allowed in these areas after 9 pm on weekdays and before 11 pm on weekends. Sound reinforcement of live music may not include subwoofers, long throw speakers, woofers larger than 15 inches, or heavy percussion including large drums and heavy bass.
