Location
Flowering trees in front of South Hall

UWRF is located(external) on 226 acres of rolling land, with the main campus featuring 26 major buildings (many of which can be rented for meetings and events!), and a spacious interior campus mall. The South Fork of the Kinnickinnic River provides a pleasant natural area linking the main campus with the Ramer Athletic Complex. For more information, take a look at the campus profile(external).

Spaces

Check out some of our most popular meeting and event spaces. Room rental fees range from $150.00 to $425.00, depending on the size of the room and nature of the event. Each room has a "standard" set up. Rooms can be changed from their standard set up to a different configuration, however the request must be made in advance and a $25.00 per hour labor fee will be applied.

Academic classrooms and other spaces in campus buildings may be available for you to rent depending on the time of year and the time of your event.
