Al-Hamza

Al-Hamza is a family-run banqueting venue in Accrington, set within a converted Victorian Methodist church. Its historic architecture and grand interior provide a distinctive setting for weddings, receptions and other celebrations, as well as corporate gatherings such as conferences and award ceremonies.

The venue is particularly experienced in South Asian weddings and offers space for ceremonies and receptions, engagement parties, birthdays, anniversaries, aqiqah and walima celebrations. Organisers can discuss tailored arrangements for their guest list, event style and cultural requirements. The team can also provide venue dressing, stage designs and seating layouts to help create the intended look for the occasion.

Food is prepared on site, with menus that include South Asian dishes, starters and desserts. Catering and event services are also offered for occasions held at other locations, with options including food service, décor, stages, servers and event management. This gives planners the choice of booking the Accrington venue or asking the team to support an event elsewhere in the UK.

For corporate organisers, Al-Hamza promotes its hall for professional events, galas and conferences. The venue has two floors, a wheelchair-accessible lift and options for separate arrangements, including gender-segregated services. Organisers can contact the events team to arrange a viewing and discuss the space, catering and other requirements for their event.
