Feestzaal De Kring is a hall for hire on the Marktplein of Sint-Lievens-Houtem, in East Flanders, for receptions, family parties, weddings, staff parties, meetings, seminars, presentations and tastings. It seats 80 people, or takes 120 for a reception or walking dinner, and is offered to private clients and companies.
Seminars and company events
The official site lists meetings, seminars, presentations, trainings and tastings among the events it hosts, for companies as well as individuals. Multimedia equipment is included: a projection wall with a beamer, a sound system and a microphone, either fixed or portable. Wifi is included in the price. For a half-day seminar of up to 80 people seated, or a company reception for up to 120, the room has the basics in place.
The hall works on a simple concept. The venue provides the room together with its tables, chairs, dinnerware, glassware, cutlery and kitchen equipment. The rest is up to you to decide and organize. That suits an organiser who already has a caterer or wants to run a staff party on a tight scope.
Weddings and receptions
The site names wedding parties, receptions, birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, communion and spring parties, funeral meals and exhibitions among the events it accommodates. For a wedding, the hall seats 80 for a dinner and takes 120 for a reception formula or walking dinner. Two parking areas can also host a bouncy castle or a barbecue for a family party.
Rooms and capacities
There is one hall. The official site gives 80 places seated and 120 for a reception or walking dinner. It does not give a floor area or layouts for theater or classroom use, so ask for the figures that apply to a meeting setup before you plan one.
Catering
The hall has a professional kitchen, and an industrial dishwasher can be used. The venue supplies soft drinks and beers, and guests must use them from the hall. Champagne, cava and wines are free to choose, and the team can help with them on request. Food is not part of the standard concept, so book your own caterer or cook in the kitchen.
History and setting
The hall stands in the center of Sint-Lievens-Houtem, on the market square. The site shows a photo gallery with the hall in use for a wine tasting, a birthday and a bar setup. The venue is a feestzaal in the Flemish sense, a community-style party hall that rents to private clients and businesses.
Getting there
The address is Marktplein 44, 9520 Sint-Lievens-Houtem. Parking is generous on the market square and on Parking Hofkouter, and the site says the hall can easily be reached from several directions. Public transport details are not given on the site. Contact for information and quotes is by phone, email or the contact form on the website, which asks for the desired date and activity.
