Event advice

UQ campuses and sites are only hosting events that relate to:

• campus experience for current students
• future student recruitment
• events that are deemed to be University critical activities by the UQ Senior Executive Team

Events that are primarily for external parties or the public should not be organised on campus for the foreseeable future.

UQ Sport, public facilities and services (courts, playgrounds, cafes and restaurants), Customs House, museums, and galleries are subject to other government guidelines.

Events may need to be postponed or cancelled if prevailing conditions within the community significantly raise the risk of transmission, and/or to align with government direction and advice.

See Planning for Events at UQ for more information.

• Only events that are related to current students' experience and future student recruitment will be approved
• These events must have fewer than 500 total attendees if possible. This can be increased to 1,000 attendees if it is an outdoor event
• Indoor events between 500 to 10,000 people and outdoor events between 1,000 to 10,000 attendees will be subject to special event planning
• Events must be spaced out and may be moved to manage density of people around campus. Consideration will be given to the number of events on campus at any one time
• A post-event report must be retained
• It is recommended you consider an online version of face-to-face events as a contingency

• See Permitted events approval process for more information.
