Casino van Gompel in Mol rents its ballroom, foyer, café and lawn for weddings, parties, staff celebrations, receptions, study days and product launches. The ballroom and foyer together take 450 guests standing or 260 seated, and the venue is rented without compulsory packages, so the organiser chooses the caterer.
Seminars and company events
Companies can rent the building for a staff party, a reception, a themed evening, a study day, a launch, a rehearsal, a photo shoot or a recording. The ballroom has a stage with a red velvet curtain, which suits a speaker, a band or a presentation, and a glass dome lets in daylight. Rows, banquet tables or standing tables can be arranged freely. Optional equipment can be hired: a projector, a screen, a sound system and basic lighting.
The foyer adjoins the ballroom and holds a fitted bar with cooling, so a reception or a walking dinner can run next to the main room. The small café is a separate room with a door to the foyer and can serve as a quiet space during a large event or as a backstage area for performers.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are offered as a complete day on one site. The ceremony takes place under the glass dome, the reception in the foyer and the party in the ballroom. The venue describes its Art Deco setting and invites couples to book a guided tour. The lawn in front of the facade can host the reception, the group photograph or a food truck in summer.
Rooms and capacities
The ballroom has a herringbone parquet floor, a glass dome and a stage. It can be set up for a ceremony, a dinner, a concert or a dance party. The foyer has high wooden doors, a terrazzo floor, a fitted bar and a cloakroom. Together, the ballroom and foyer take 450 guests standing or 260 seated. The café is a closable room with wood paneling, chandeliers and a working stove, and takes up to 49 people seated. The lawn outside is free to use in good weather.
Accommodation
There is no accommodation on site. Guests who travel for an event can look for rooms in Mol or nearby, and the venue can be asked about local options.
Catering
No kitchen is available. Organisers choose an external caterer who works with their own equipment, and they also choose styling, flowers and service staff, either their own team or a partner. Drinks are charged by consumption at the fitted bar, and there are no compulsory packages or hidden extras, according to the venue.
History and setting

Every rental supports the association's social and cultural inclusion work. The summer bar Congé Royal opens on its terrace, and guided tours run on Wednesdays.
