L'Espace Maintenon is a community venue in Gentelles, in the Somme department, available to hire for family events, association activities and other gatherings. It comprises two halls with different capacities: Le Millénaire can accommodate up to 150 people seated, while La Gentella can accommodate up to 20 people. This arrangement lets you choose a space suited to the size of your group and the type of event planned.

The large hall has an equipped kitchen with crockery, ovens and fridges. Organisers can therefore prepare and manage their own reception, bringing their own drinks and any other items they need. The hire is for the space only, with no catering service advertised. There is a car park nearby, and the venue indicates that accessible parking is available for people with reduced mobility.

Booking requests must be sent in writing to the town hall, which handles contact with tenants and users. Residents of Gentelles and local associations can book up to one year in advance. For other applicants, the maximum booking period is six months, with residents and associations from the commune given priority if requests overlap. The booking is confirmed once the required documents have been submitted and the deposit paid. Users must provide, in particular, proof of identity, proof of address and a certificate of public liability insurance. Rates are set by the commune. The regulations also specify requirements for parking, consideration for neighbours, cleaning and handing the premises back after use.
