Paid Parking is available on the surrounding streets, public parking lots and public parking garages. Valet parking may be arranged for the event by the client. If valet is confirmed, the valet company will need to provide all applicable signage. No parking is provided with the venue rental.
Select Caterer: (“Caterer”). Licensee acknowledges and agrees that it must separately contract for food and beverage arrangements for the Event and that food and beverage costs will be in addition to the Payment Obligations (hereinafter defined). Licensee shall make all food and beverage arrangements for the Event through vendors approved in advance, in writing, by Licensor.
5.1 If alcoholic beverages are to be a part of the Event, they shall only be served, used or otherwise maintained within designated areas.
5.2 It is understood and agreed that any and all alcoholic beverages will be provided by Licensor’s beverage services partner or approved caterer.

5.4 Alcohol must only be served by an insured licensed and TIPS certified bartender(s).

5.8 Skyline Denver has a “no shots” policy, also no drink made with more than two spirits i.e. Long Islands, Hurricanes etc. unless pre-made and ordered by Client as a Specialty Drink by the venue approved beverage service provider.
Licensee shall be solely responsible along with the Caterer or a rental service company for set-ups, tables, chairs, podiums, tableware, serving stations and the like (the “Set-Up Requirements”). Should additional Set-Up Requirements need to be accommodated for the rental service company, Licensor shall have the right to assess an Ancillary Service Fee in order to meet such requirements.
7.1 Ancillary Services are herein defined as any services provided by anyone other than the Licensor for an additional fee and that the Licensee selects to have at the Event. Ancillary Service rates are variable as they are dependent on the service, time, quantity and additional needs of Licensee.
7.2 No Ancillary Services will be provided until the service rate and specifics are mutually agreed upon between Licensor and Licensee. Licensee acknowledges that Licensee may be required to enter into separate agreements with third party providers of Ancillary Services, and Licensor shall have no liability to Licensee for any party's failure to execute any such agreement.

Any Ancillary Service requested by Licensee that is not identified on the Cover Page may be provided by Licensor at a fee determined by Licensor and approved by Licensee. In the event that Licensee elects to use a third party (an "Outside Contractor") to provide services at the Event, Licensee shall be responsible for such Outside Contractor's compliance with this Agreement. Licensee understands and agrees that third-party providers of Ancillary Services are not and shall not be deemed agents of Licensor.
Licensee or Licensor may cease the service of alcoholic beverages in the event a Licensor, Caterer or beverage service company representative determines, in their respective, sole and absolute judgment: (a) that such cessation is necessary for the safety of patrons of the Event or the Event Venue or for the protection of the Event Venue, or (b) that any person under the legal age for the consumption of alcoholic beverages has been served at such Event.

9.3 Any additional services rendered to Licensee or reimbursable damages due from the licensee to the licensor in excess of the amount collected in the security deposit will be billed after the completion of the Event and due within thirty (30) days thereafter.

12.5 Licensee agrees to execute such further instruments and documents as may be reasonably required by Licensor in connection with the procurement of such insurance.

Licensor shall have the right to limit the use of lighting and sound from any source within the building, including, but not limited to, lamps, light fixtures, illuminated signs, televisions, stereos, speakers, amplifiers, radios and any other electronic devices.
