Event Banquet Closing Checklist

This event banquet closing checklist helps hospitality teams shut down venues efficiently and consistently. It covers servers, bar, and captains’ end-of-event duties, including returning glassware and china to inventory, resetting spaces, emptying and relining trash, cleaning the banquet kitchen and equipment, wiping down dispensers and surfaces, securing liquor in the liquor room, completing consumption reports and cash drops, and turning off A/C, lights, sound, and projectors. It also prompts staff to log hours, lock doors, finish the event recap, and capture photos. Add corrective actions, assign owners and due dates, collect digital signatures, and export reports as PDF, Word, Excel, or web link.
