Event Services

Event Services works with college and community entities desiring to use Phoenix College meeting and event spaces. College personnel, student organizations or outside groups can reserve meeting rooms for seven people or auditoriums accommodating 675.

Phoenix College is an ideal meeting destination, situated near the downtown arts, cultural and business districts and only ten minutes from Sky Harbor Airport. TV and film crews also find our historic brick architecture and tree-lined campus the perfect setting for commercials, television shows and motion pictures.
