About this venue
Bere Regis Village Hall, also called Drax Hall, is a two-room community venue at 96 North Street. A March 2025 local magazine lists the upper hall, with stage and a small kitchen facility, at £15 per hour, and the lower room at £10 per hour; treat these as dated guidance and confirm current terms with the booking secretary. The lower room has its own kitchen, which the magazine said had just received a five-star food-hygiene rating. The hall remains in use for community meetings and events, though the 2025 neighbourhood-plan review reports difficult access to the upper floor and no parking at the building.
