Event planning

Security coverage

Campus Public Safety oversees all events occurring on ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV campuses where security coverage is required. Groups wishing to hold special events that require additional guards, liquor or security assessments must contact Campus Public Safety at least 10 days prior to the event. A supervisor will work with the event organizer to determine additional steps.

There is no cost for the consultation or security assessment, however, the event organizer will be required to fund additional guards or liquor permits as required.

Costs:

Internal (¶¡ÏãÔ°AV community members):

  • Security guard: $35 per person per hour (up to 8 hours; overtime rates apply)
  • Security supervisor: $50 per person per hour
  • SSEP (student staff): $25 per person per hour

External (or sponsored through MECS, SFSS):

  • Security guard: $40 per person per hour (up to 8 hours; overtime rates apply)

Liquor permits

To organize functions where alcoholic beverages will be served clubs, organizations or individuals must observe the following:

  • Serving alcoholic beverages is subject to both provincial regulations and ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV policy.
  • Complete a Special Occasion License. Contact a Campus Security supervisor at 778.782.3922, or email security@sfu.ca at least 7 days prior to the event for applicable forms and more information.
