Rental Process and Conditions
Please note the Dell Music Center is closed for the remainder of 2020 due to the COVID-19 crisis. For more information call 215-685-9766.
Contact the Dell to check availability of your desired date(s). Availability is limited, so be prepared with alternate dates and a clear sense of your event and its timeline. If your desired date(s) appear open and your performance or event is compatible with the venue, you may place a soft hold while we confirm availability.
Once your date is confirmed, submit a completed application together with the rental deposit (one half of the licensee fee) for approval by the Dell Music Center Management.
Once approved by the Dell Management, we will issue a City of Philadelphia License Agreement. Management further reserves the right to require a deposit to cover all estimated expenses, including but not limited to: rent, ticketing fees, set-up, staffing, damages, advertising, electrical service, and miscellaneous equipment.
The Dell Music Center will provide use of the venue, a full-range of event equipment and personnel including ushers, ticket-takers, security, stagehands, cleaning, operations and technical support.
Proof of Insurance
A Certificate of Insurance is required for all rental activities. Insurance must include Comprehensive General Liability, Workers Compensation & Employers Liability and Automobile Liability. Proof of insurance must be provided no more than two weeks prior to your event.
