How do you book an activity/event at the Durham County Memorial Stadium?
The first step is to complete the Rental Application for the Stadium Manager and Stadium Authority to review for available event date(s), the nature of the event, the community benefit of the event, the capacity and character of the event planners to manage the proposed event, along with the safety of the fans and facility resources.
What happens once the Rental Application and date(s) is approved?
The next step a formal Rental Agreement (contract) is issued that explains the terms, conditions, requirements, and total fees of the licensee. Next, a formal contract is created for the the actual event with approval granted once the necessary required authorized signatures on the document and the determined deposit is obtained for the event to place on the calendar.
Who is responsible for concessions/vending?
The Stadium is responsible for all food concessions on the property. Sponsorship and product/merchandizing vending (non-food) is permitted with Stadium Management approval.
