social halls
Gathering place buildings
Social halls are large rooms or buildings designed for community gatherings, events, and celebrations.
Churches, fraternal organizations, and ethnic communities often maintain social halls for weddings, dances, meetings, and banquets: We rented the Elks social hall for the reception.
The term suggests a multipurpose space meant for bringing people together rather than a specialized venue.
