Halls and Venues

We assist with funding at nine community halls, most of which are owned and operated locally.

Council Halls

Venue hire rates in Thames, Whitianga, Pauanui and Whangamata vary according to the facilities you wish to use, whether it is to be hired for a community group, private function or commercial organisation and based on casual or regular use. Many of our venues have full kitchen facilities and are very popular (so book early!).

Enquire about venues or make a booking by contacting us.

Fees

The process for setting fees and charges is through the Annual Plan, and some new fees and charges start on 1 July.
