No, you cannot, but it will usually be possible to offer you an alternative, if a desired room is occupied.

If you would like to secure a room for an event well into the future, you should primarily look for the rooms in the Conference Center as well as the Aula and the Vandrehallen.These are not prioritized for teaching and can therefore be booked several years in the future.

The auditoriums and teaching rooms, on the other hand, are prioritized for teaching, and this room planning takes place in a fixed planning roll.
