Booking FAQs
I am interested in renting a venue. What are the next steps?
The first step is to complete a rental application. The application requires three business references from previous events that you have hosted. We will review it and, if approved, work with you on the next steps.
Is a deposit required?
A deposit is not required to hold a date pending an approved rental application. A deposit is due when you sign a contract to confirm the event. As a first-time renter, the full rental fee is required before the event can be announced and go on sale.
Can I sell my tickets?
SevenVenues is a Ticketmaster partner. Event tickets must be sold through Ticketmaster. The box office will work with you on ticket scaling and can provide additional information as you build your event. A 10% admission tax is based on gross ticket sales. SevenVenues submits this tax to the Commissioner of Revenue’s office on behalf of the promoter.
When can I hold dates?
Pending rental application approval, we can work on a mutually agreeable date. We consider the genre of the event and similar events that may already be on hold or playing the market to find a date that will provide the most opportunity for a successful event.
When can I announce my show and go on sale?
After the rental application is approved, we require a signed contract and full deposit before your event can be announced and go on sale. Once those requirements have been fulfilled, we will work with you to set up an announcement and on-sale date based on other scheduled announcements.
What if I have never put on an event?
That doesn’t necessarily exclude you from consideration. If this is your first event, we strongly recommend starting in one of our smaller venues to learn the process and lessen your risk factor.
Do you handle the marketing for my event?
We provide some basic marketing assets with a venue rental, including a listing on the venue’s marquee (if applicable) and a listing on SevenVenues’ website and social media accounts. We will also send two e-blasts to targeted patrons before your event – one to announce the event and another closer to the show. The promoter must handle all other marketing.
Can I sell concessions at my event?
SevenVenues works with an in-house food and beverage provider, OVG, which is exclusive to the properties. OVG provides food and beverages for all the events in our venues. While this is free to the promoter, OVG keeps proceeds from all sales.
Can I sell alcohol at my event?
OVG, SevenVenues’ in-house food and beverage, maintains the ABC license for our properties. They handle all alcohol sales at our events. No outside food or drink is permitted.
