The Dorfsaal in Oudler offers two halls for private and public events: a large hall of 390 m² with a modular stage and a small hall of 110 m². Birthdays, communions, weddings, lectures, meetings, shows and club events all take place here. The building is in the village of Oudler, in the municipality of Burg-Reuland, in the south of the German-speaking Community of Belgium.
Seminars and company events
The small hall suits lectures, meetings and assemblies. It is separated from the large hall, has its own bar and a wide window front with two double doors to the outdoor area, and it offers WiFi and a LAN connection. A company can also use it for rehearsals or as a buffet room beside an event in the large hall.
The large hall adds a screen and projector, a PA system with a digital mixing desk, wireless microphones and stage lighting, with rigging points for a truss. The stage floor is modular. Ten LED spots light the room, can be switched in pairs and dimmed in 5 percent steps. A heating and ventilation system replaces the air with fresh air, so the room stays comfortable with a full audience.
Weddings and receptions
The venue names weddings among the events the small hall is made for, along with birthday parties and communions. For a larger reception, the large hall has its own bar with a tap system, a large cold room and direct access to the kitchen. Both halls open onto an outdoor area where tents can be set up, and the grounds are away from road traffic.
Rooms and capacities
The large hall offers 390 m² of usable floor. Its modular stage system, with a surface of about 90 m², can be lowered to floor level so the whole hall is flat, or raised in steps up to 1 meter. That allows an orchestra on a stepped platform, a theater production with scenery, or a single performer or DJ. The hall has a bar area in marble with a sink and the tap system, and acoustic panels on the ceiling.
The small hall offers 110 m² and its own bar in wood and marble, with a large fridge and freezer, ready for use without a mobile bar. The venue does not publish seated or standing capacities for either hall. Organizers should ask for the numbers that match their layout.
Catering
The large hall connects directly to a kitchen and a cold room used as a drinks store. The site does not describe an in-house catering offer or a list of caterers, so organizers confirm with the team who supplies food and drinks and what the kitchen includes.
History and setting
The old village hall of Oudler dated from 1957 and housed all the local clubs. The nonprofit Dorfsaal Oudler VoG built the new complex with the architect Daniel Blaise, who has experience in acoustics. Work started in early 2019 and the hall was ready for the carnival session of January 2020, with companies and many volunteers from the village taking part. It also includes technical rooms, sanitary areas with a step-free toilet, and storage on an upper level for the local clubs.
Getting there
The hall stands at Auf der Ley 60 in Oudler, 4790 Burg-Reuland. The car park has 33 spaces. The site gives no public transport details, so organizers check connections for guests who do not drive.
