The University of Arkansas uses Mazévo to accept reservation requests for outdoor
spaces.

Review Process
Outdoor space reservation requests are assessed by Facilities Management for safety concerns and the protection of university facilities and grounds. Additional approvals may be necessary depending on the details of the event, including a security assessment performed by UAPD.
Once staff has received all the necessary information, requests are typically processed in a week. You will receive confirmation of your event via email from the Outdoor Reservation Office.
A few locations, such as One East Center (ECEN) and The Gardens also have specific usage policies you should review prior to your event.
If you have any questions regarding reservation requests, you can contact outdoors@uark.edu or call 479-575-6441.
