About our Facilities
The Athletic Centre, Goldring Centre and Varsity Centre offer a wide range of athletic and meeting facilities, many of which are available for rental. Rental fees vary by facility and rental availability may be limited during the school year in order to accommodate student programming (September through May). Student groups receive priority for booking rental spaces.
Guidelines for Rental
Rental requests are accepted and considered only after internal program requirements have been fulfilled.
Due to limited availability, ongoing/long-term rental bookings are rarely available.
Commercial ventures that are in direct competition with our own internal programs will not be accommodated.
A comprehensive general liability insurance policy, covering bodily injury and property damage, with inclusive limits of at least $2,000,000 to $5,000,000 must be supplied in order for a rental to be confirmed*. A "rider" on the certificate must name "The Governing Council of the University of Toronto" as an additional ‘named insured’. Rental confirmation will occur only after the certificate of insurance is supplied. *Rental groups comprised entirely of students and facility members are not required to provide insurance, however, a valid membership card or guest pass is required to access the facility during the rental period.
Individuals teaching or instructing programming during an event are required to supply a certificate of qualifications prior to a confirmation of a rental.
To Initiate a Rental Inquiry
To initiate a rental inquiry, please complete and submit the Faculty’s rental application form. A minimum of 10 business days are required in order to process a request.
