Do I need to register my event in WaveSync?

If your event meets at least one of the following criteria, then yes! 

  • You expect at least 30 people in attendance
  • Alcohol will be served.
  • It will be held outdoors.
How far in advance do I need to register my event?

You must submit an online request through WaveSync 21 days prior to the event.

How much involvement will your department have in my event?

Our department has the responsibility to make sure everyone at your event is safe and that there are no unacceptable impacts to the rest of the university. Besides that, we will have as much or as little involvement as you would like.

Is any event too large or too small for you?

No! Our staff members are experienced in managing events that range in size from 2 people to 100,000.

Will the Tulane University Police Department be at our event?

It is their responsibility to keep the university safe, and it is up to TUPD's discretion whether there should be an officer present at your event. However, if alcohol is being served, one officer is required per every 250 people attending your event.

What will it cost me to have Event Services involved?
