Facilities

Using Yukon College Facilities Yukon College invites you to consider the use of the Ayamdigut Campus facilities in Whitehorse when planning your special event or conference. Depending on your requirements, we can generally accommodate smaller events up to 100 persons at any time through the year. However, the best time for larger events is the period between the last week of April to the end of August, or the College’s reading week (which normally coincides with the public school break in Whitehorse).

Available Space The College is open year round. We have a large gymnasium for trade shows, exhibitions, plenary sessions or formal dinners. Our classrooms vary from smaller 12 seat classrooms, various "flexible space" places, to the 80 seat lecture hall. Our computer labs are equipped with current technology.

To book space for your event, contact the facility coordinators. ph: 867.668.8889 fx: 867.668.8896 toll free: 1.800.661.0504 e: rbooking@yukoncollege.yk.ca

Additional Services In addition our cafeteria is able to cater your event during the school year. The cafeteria dining area is a large, naturally lit space, with seating for up to 299 persons. Our bookstore carries convenience items as well as a collection of Yukon College souvenirs to mark your northern experience. Yukon College student residences are sometimes available during the May to August period for use by event participants. The Ayamdigut Campus is located on a scenic hill top and is surrounded on three sides by forest with a system of hiking trails. The site is serviced by the City transit system and is considered accessible for people with handicaps.

Yukon College Gym The gym is available for rent on a 24-hour clock. For example, you may book it at 3 pm on a Saturday to set up for a function, and the rental period would extend until 3 pm Sunday. This gives a presenter plenty of time for tear down and clean up. The capacity for the gym depends on the use. There is seating for 294 in the bleachers and 1284 standing. The dining capacity is 802. With liquor served, the legal capacity is 713. The college has risers that could be used for a stage. They are in 4’ X 8’ X 1’ sections that are carpeted. The total area is 20’ X 12’. There is a custodial charge of $50.00 for assembling them. If required, there are also 9 coat racks that may be rented at $25/unit. There is no medical/first aid kit available for outside users. It is recommended that clients supply their own kit.

Liquor Liquor may be consumed on campus if the event holds a valid liquor permit and is approved by the College. Liquor permits are room specific. Arrangements can be made with the Facilities Co-ordinator upon booking the facility. Events require a qualified bartender and bonded security guards and proof of $2 million liability insurance.
