Frequently Asked Questions

As of August 15, 2021, Arizona Catering & Events Co. has been listed as the preferred alcohol vendor through the Financial Services Office for all University of Arizona properties. As of March 1, 2022, we are the ONLY bar service provider approved for campus.

In the event that multiple events requiring alcohol service overlap, we will secure a third-party vendor on your behalf. There is no need to contact anyone else. All catering and bar events submitted with less than 10 days’ notice will be handled on a case-by-case basis.

Alcohol cannot be purchased with state funds. Therefore, you will receive a separate invoice for catering and alcohol service. All third-party expenses will be billed through Arizona Catering & Events Co.

The quantity, menu, and cost of bar services will be determined prior to the event with your event planner. Currently, beer and wine are pre-approved for licensed areas. If any specialty items are required, please inform your event planner in advance.

If alcohol is donated to your event in one of our licensed areas, we will need to suspend our liquor license. Additionally, you will need to apply for a special event permit. This process can take up to 45 days.
