Hailsham Civic Community Hall

Hailsham Civic Community Hall is a flexible venue for organisers planning community events, children’s parties and other gatherings in Hailsham. The hall can accommodate around 150 to 180 people, depending on the event and layout, making it suitable for larger local celebrations as well as organised community activities. The room measures 21 by 12 metres, and seating arrangements can be discussed when booking so the space can be set up to suit the occasion.

A stage area is available, with staging options to help organisers create a focal point for presentations, performances or speeches. The venue also offers audio equipment, lighting and projection facilities, including screens and a projector. Kitchen facilities are available for basic refreshments, such as tea, coffee, cakes and cold buffets. The kitchen is not intended for preparing hot food, so organisers should plan catering accordingly.

Free parking is available, which can make arrival easier for guests and suppliers. The hall is operated by Wealden District Council and is also used for council business at certain times, so availability varies. Organisers should check the calendar before settling on an event date. Bookings are requested through the council, and hire charges depend on the time, the type of organisation and whether alcohol is involved. If an event includes the sale or supply of alcohol, the relevant licensing requirements must be addressed before the event takes place.
