Faversham Assembly Rooms

Faversham Assembly Rooms is a historic event venue in the centre of Faversham, Kent, offering an elegant and adaptable setting for private and professional occasions. The restored Italianate building dates from the mid-19th century and combines period character with practical facilities for modern organisers.

The main hall measures approximately 16.5 metres by 8.5 metres and can accommodate up to 120 upholstered chairs. It includes a seated balcony, green room, grand piano, modern fitted kitchen, storage areas and accessible toilet facilities. Wheelchair access is available, while nearby public car parks provide convenient parking for guests and suppliers. There is also limited rear access for deliveries and event set-up.

Organisers can hire the venue for wedding receptions, dinners, corporate hospitality, conferences, seminars, training sessions, recruitment events, product launches, concerts, recitals, exhibitions, family celebrations, dances, private parties, rehearsals and community activities. Its flexible layout makes it suitable for seated events, performances, talks, classes and social gatherings. A special package is available for weddings and functions, with bookings arranged through The Alexander Centre, which currently manages the venue under a temporary agreement.

Located a short walk from Faversham railway station and close to the town’s amenities, the venue is accessible for local guests and visitors travelling from across Kent or London. Its charitable custodianship and community role add to its distinctive appeal, while continued venue hire supports the preservation of this important local building.
