Mason Internal Space Request: Links to Mason's 25Live portal. Mason users may request space, reference the event calendar, or find out if a space is available on a particular date. Please note that we require an org code and confirmation on whether you are partnering with an external organization before we will confirm your reservation. Due to the increased number of reservation requests that come in for major event space on the Arlington Campus, and subsequent cancellations, Arlington Events Management reserves the right to limit the number of reservation requests accommodated.  

In order to gain access to 25Live, you must request a new user account and attend a training session:

• Faculty and Staff: Request a 25Live account by completing the 25Live New User Request Form.
• Students: If you have not taken the mandatory RSO training, email RSO@gmu.edu to sign up for the next available class. Note: You must be in a registered student organization to request a 25Live account. Contact Student Involvement for more information.
