Wervik Stoasche is an event hall in the former station building of Wervik, in West Flanders, Belgium. It hosts meetings, workshops, receptions, walking dinners and wedding parties for up to 100 seated guests or 130 standing. The hall is rented without a set caterer, and it comes with a professional kitchen, a bar, a sound and light system and a terrace.
Seminars and company events
The hall is offered for meetings and workshops as well as parties. Up to 100 people can sit for a dinner, a meeting or a workshop, using the tables and chairs stored on site. The room has two projectors and two screens for presentations, so a half-day training or a team meeting needs no outside equipment. Part of the hall can be closed off, which gives a smaller group its own corner or a separate space for breakout activities.
The hall is let during the week as well as on weekends. Soft drinks, beers and coffee are provided, and a breakfast or dessert buffet prepared by the owner can be requested.
Weddings and receptions
For receptions and walking dinners the hall holds up to 130 standing guests. The owners list weddings, baby showers and other family parties among the events they host. Party tables with stretch covers suit a reception indoors or on the terrace. There is room outside, at the terrace or in front of the building, for a bouncy castle or a food truck, which is useful for a family event with children.
The sound and light system is installed in the hall, so a DJ can play without bringing a full set. Glasses, tables, party tables and chairs are part of the offer.
Rooms and capacities
The venue is a single main hall with a classified bar. Capacity is 100 seated and 130 standing. The hall is set in a former station building, and some historic elements of the old station have been kept. A terrace extends the space in good weather.
Catering
The hall is rented free of caterer, which means you can bring in the caterer of your choice. A professional stainless steel kitchen with machines and accessories is available for that use. The owners provide soft drinks, beers and coffee, and can prepare breakfast and dessert buffets on request.
History and setting
The owners, Ludovic Catteeuw and Karolien Ramon, are bakers known in Marke near Kortrijk for their craft bakery. They bought the classified station building of Wervik in April 2019 and turned it into an event hall, with the idea of creating a venue from Wervik for Wervik. The interior has been furnished with care while keeping elements of the former station.
Getting there
The hall is at Stationsstraat 17 in Wervik, in the center of town. A map link and a phone number are on the website, and the owners send an information brochure on request.
