For reservations made on or after April 29, 2026, all Food Permits and Performance Agreements must be completed through T-RES. If the reservation was made outside of T-RES, select the option “Permits for Existing Reservations Outside of T-RES.”
For reservations made on or before April 28, 2026, please continue using the existing Food Permit or Performance Agreement forms and processes.
Major Events Policy (MEP)
Reserving space through T-RES automatically satisfies the Major Events Policy.

About
T-RES is UC San Diego’s new centralized platform that streamlines finding and reserving space, event planning workflows, and ensures policy compliance when managing events and meetings on university property.
T-RES currently supports reservations for more than 200 campus locations, including meeting rooms, outdoor spaces, and premier venues like the Epstein Family Amphitheater, Great Hall, LionTree Arena, Mandeville Auditorium, and the Price Center Ballrooms. Additional venues will be added to T-RES as the system expands.
