The Centre

The Centre is a large, flexible hall in Waverly, Iowa, available to hire for celebrations and gatherings. With 20,000 square feet of space and capacity for up to 700 guests, it can host wedding receptions, anniversary celebrations, class reunions, graduation parties, holiday gatherings, office parties and estate auctions. Couples and organisers can check the event calendar and request a date for their function.

The room is designed to adapt to different layouts and event sizes. Tables and chairs for the expected number of guests are included, along with a raised portable stage, a podium, a microphone and speaker system. A hard-surface dance area and mirror ball make room for an evening reception, and the hall can accommodate dinner and dancing without needing to clear the dining tables first. Rental fees are adjusted according to the event's size and duration.

Organisers can also rent additional items to tailor the space to their plans. Options include use of a kitchen area for self-service or a caterer, coloured linens, vases, coffee equipment, serving pieces and popcorn, cotton candy, shaved ice and slushy machines. Children's games and an inflatable play gym are also available. The venue's gallery gives planners a view of past functions, while the amenities information outlines what is included and what can be added. To view the space, visitors can arrange an appointment or stop by Miller Hardware during its stated weekday hours.
