Event Approval

As a member of Ruhr University Bochum, you have the opportunity to use barbecue areas and stands both indoors and outdoors and to organize internal university celebrations or events.

However, this requires approval from Infrastructural Facility Management.

If you require an event permit or would like to rent one of the above-mentioned areas, you can submit your request directly to Infrastructural Facility Management via an online booking tool.

You will then receive feedback as to whether your event can take place as planned. Safety aspects will also be taken into account.
