Planning Your Event

What to include in your enquiry

Give an estimated number of attendees.

Tell us whether it is a meeting, meal, celebration or social function.

Character

A venue with more history than a blank hall

The Centre was completed by Prince Edwin's Lodge and opened for its inaugural meeting in February 1963. It was later extended as dining, social functions and hire use grew.

For the right event, that heritage is part of the appeal: a practical Hythe venue with a distinctive story and an active local Masonic community behind it.
