How it works

  1. Step 1

    Check your dates

    Contact the auditorium manager with your group, the venue you'd like and a few preferred dates. Tours are available by appointment.

  2. Step 2

    Apply online

    Send the online application (the Auditorium Use Form and TR-1 technical rider in one) at least 21 days before your event. Paper PDFs work too. A $15 paperwork processing fee applies to every request; mail it separately or add it to your final invoice.

    Get approval and an estimate

    The auditorium manager reviews your request (allow up to 2 weeks) and returns it with an approval and a cost estimate. Some rentals need a deposit, due at least 10 working days before the event.

  4. Step 4

    Plan the show

    We'll set up a meeting to walk through your event, schedule and technical needs. Changes to your technical requirements are due in writing at least 48 hours before the event.

  5. Step 5

    Send a certificate of general liability insurance ($1,000,000) naming Walled Lake Consolidated Schools before your event.
