Event Setup Needs

If your event requires a specific room setup, please indicate your needs when reserving your venue in EMS. Please note that certain rooms cannot be rearranged and must remain as is (in a default setup).

Some Common Room Setups Include:

  • Open Square: tables are arranged in an open square format with chairs around the square.
  • Classroom Style: tables arranged in rows facing the front of the room with chairs behind each row.
  • Lecture/Theater Style: chairs setup in rows facing the front of the room (like an audience) – no tables.

The various setups (including venues that cannot be rearranged and must stay in a default setup) and capacity numbers for each venue are listed in EMS. If you have additional questions or need further information, please reach out to the Conferences and Campus Events Office at 207-786-6299.
