Event Planning and Space Use
We help the MIT community plan and run successful events in CAC-managed spaces. From lectures to performances to socials, we provide policies, space options, reservation procedures, and support services.
Reserving a Space
The CAC provides a wide range of event spaces, from a 1,100-seat auditorium to small conference rooms and everything in between. Requests for CAC space reservations are made through Mazevo.
Using Event Spaces
As you plan your event, review approved vendors, learn how to request equipment, and explore options for setting up furniture in your event space.
Event Dates & Deadlines
Learn when spaces become available for advanced reservation and ensure you are building the right lead times into your event planning.
