T-RES – Permits and Process Modules
As part of the Campus Activation initiative, the Triton Reservation and Event System (T-RES) is introducing a series of enhancements to simplify and streamline how events are managed at UC San Diego.
These enhancements create a single, end-to-end workflow that guides each request from start to finish by capturing event details, routing requests for review and approval, and ensuring compliance, coordination, and visibility.The first enhancement in this series integrates the Food Permit and Performance Agreement modules into the existing T-RES, with rollout scheduled for April 29, 2026.
T-RES Permits and Process Modules
Event-related workflows and policy notifications have been integrated into T-RES, including:
-
- Food Permit
- Performance Agreement
- More Coming Soon
Food Permit
A Temporary Food Facility Permit (Food Permit) is required for public events where food is sold or distributed.
Please follow safety guidelines when preparing and storing food, and visit the Temporary Food Facility Permits website for more information.
Performance Agreement
A performance agreement is a specialized contract between the University and an Artist or non-UC San Diego Speaker.
A performance agreement is needed for the following:
- Music: e.g., bands, DJs, and singers
- Dance: e.g., dance companies and individuals
- Authors: Reading or speaking about his/her work
- Public Speakers: Inspirational/informational presentations to staff, faculty, and students
- Performance-based presentations: e.g., magicians, comedians, and jugglers
For more information, visit the Performance Agreement website.
Major Events Policy / Event Intake Form
Reserving space through T-RES automatically satisfies the Major Events Policy.
For reservations made outside of T-RES that are expected to have more than 100 attendees and/or include alcohol, please register your event through T-RES. Log in to T-RES and select the option “Permits for Existing Reservations Outside of T-RES.”
This process replaces the Event Intake Form.
