Facility Rental

UWM University Recreation offers a wide range of facilities suitable for various group reservations. To request a reservation kindly complete the Facility Request Form, and please note that some reservations may involve a usage fee. To check the availability of our facilities, visit our rental website.

For a smooth and successful reservation, we kindly request that all submissions be made at least two weeks in advance. However, major events hosted by off-campus user groups require a minimum of one month advance notice and proof of insurance.

If you represent a non-university organization and are interested in utilizing our recreational facilities for special events during our lower facility usage period (typically from mid-April to July), we enthusiastically welcome your proposals. Our team at the Department of University Recreation will carefully review each request, taking into account facility availability during these specified times. Please review our full policy below.

We look forward to hosting your events and ensuring a wonderful experience at our facilities!

Non-University Groups/Organizations

The Department of University Recreation (UREC) welcomes proposals from non-university organizations for the use of UWM recreation and sport facilities for special events during our lower usage period, which is typically from mid-April through July.  UREC will review requests based on facility availability, priority, and staff availability.

UREC provides priority access to our facilities to UWM students and the UWM community.  We are committed to providing this access throughout the year, but particularly during the academic year.  During this time our facilities are in great demand and highly utilized by internal programs and events.  As such, it is essential for us to provide scheduling priority for UWM students and the UWM campus community for indoor recreation and sport facilities from August through mid-April.  This allows us to serve the diverse needs of UWM.
