Quick questions:

Yes. In order to submit a Special Event Proposal (the first step in the Special Event Permitting process) you will need to have verification that the venue for your event has been reserved.

Once a venue has been reserved for the event, you will have seven days to submit a Special Event Proposal. After the Special Event Proposal has been accepted, you will have fourteen days to submit the Special Event Permit application for the event.

Once you have reserved your venue, go to eventpermit.tamu.edu and log in to begin the application for a Special Event Proposal.

To apply for a Special Event Proposal, you will need to know where and when the event is taking place and have a general idea of all the activities that will take place during the event.

Once the Special Event Permit application is set to Under Review, the assigned Reviewers will read over your application and ask any clarifying questions. As the Applicant, be sure to watch for any emails regarding questions the Reviewers may have and log into the system to answer any questions as soon as possible.

If you would like to have a drone at your event, you will need to complete the Texas A&M UAS Flight Authorization prior to the event. The UAS Flight Authorization is located here: https://www.tamus.edu/risk/risk-management/unmanned-aircraft-system-operations-uas/

To request street, sidewalk, or parking lot closures for an event, you will need to contact Transportation Services to obtain approval for the closures. You will later be required to provide this information in the Special Event Permit application. Transportation Services can be contacted at 979.862.7943.
