Event Management Services offers support and assistance for on- and off-campus groups planning events, lectures, camps, conferences, testing and more.

Not all events are open to the public. Those that are, gain exposure through the Event Management “Central Calendar of Events.” The central calendar is distributed weekly to various departments at SBU. However, most staff, students and community members view the calendar online. Constantly updated, the online calendar is an excellent tool to find out what is going on at St. Bonaventure University. You can also find a brief listing of larger upcoming events on the SBU Home Page under “Events at SBU.”
Many of our banquet facilities can be setup with audio/visual equipment, such as televisions, VCRs, DVDs, screen, slide or overhead projector and laptops.
