What Can You Use Our Malpas Event Space For?

At The Lion, we’re lucky enough to be able to host a number of events in our beautiful Brereton Suite. With the décor kept purposefully neutral, so that you can decorate any and every way you wish, we open our doors to anyone wishing to use the event space for their celebration. The Bereton Suite can hold between 20 and 60 people, depending on what layout you require. Here are just some ways you can use our beautiful Malpas event space, and how to get the best out of your party, dinner, or ceremony!


And don’t forget, at the Lion we offer a wide variety of bedrooms – so if you’re planning to turn up long into the night, there’s no need to fret about accommodation. Feel free to chat to one of the friendly members of our team to find out our availability.

Ways To Use Our Malpas Event Space

  1. A Wedding

Not everyone wants to have a huge wedding; instead, focusing on just your closest relations and friends is one way to ensure a more private, intimate ceremony – with the added benefit of lower costs and less hassle! Even before COVID-19, small weddings and even ‘micro weddings’ (defined as fewer than 20 guests) were still chic.

With a smaller ceremony, you can afford to go all out with any zany ideas you might have been more reluctant to execute in front of lots more people.

Why not have that Disney themed wedding you joked about a long time ago? Or you could hire photo booths, magicians or any kind of themed entertainment that tickles your fancy. You only have one wedding, after all – you might as well make it one personal to you!

2. A Baby Shower or Christening Reception

Our space is ideal for a gathering to celebrate the health, happiness, and new life of the little ones in your family! With a generous amount of room for whatever you fancy keeping your guests amused with – whether that’s entertainment, games, or simply lots of cake – there’s plenty of scope to use our Brereton Suite exactly the way you fancy it.

3. An Anniversary Dinner or Birthday Meal

Celebrating the big 6-0, 7-0 or 8-0? How about the big 2-1? Or perhaps you tied the knot a whole 50 years ago!

You can opt for either a buffet menu or a private dining menu – why not check out some examples of our buffet spreads over on our social media, or check out our full menu for our Malpas event space and pub on our website? Whatever the occasion, we’ll cater to you.

4. Family Reunions

In a way, isn’t every family function a family reunion? And getting together with our loved ones to eat, drink, and be merry, couldn’t be easier with us at our Brereton Suite.

Are your guests coming from far-flung places? Why not specialise the suite to fit the theme of the country they might be coming from? And don’t forget the games, entertainment, and everything else in between: there’s no limit on the themes you could run with.

If you have a special occasion coming up, be sure to get in touch with our friendly team on 01948 807070 or by emailing events@thelionatmalpas.co.uk to enquire about our Malpas event space – we’d love to help you make it a day to remember.
