Junee Reefs Hall
Organisation
Description

The historic Junee Reefs Ivor Hall was opened on March 24, 1926, on Crown Land with funds (£606) raised by the local community. The Hall sits in the middle of the Junee Reefs Community, which is prime farming land today, but in 1860’s it was a part of a gold mining area hosting over 3,000 people.

The hall has the old country charm of the original corrugated iron hall with timber floors. More recently, the refurbishment of the supper room, kitchen and amenities provide fully enclosed air conditioned spaces.

The Hall is located 23kms north of Junee, 38kms south of Temora, 49kms west of Cootamundra, and 57kms North of Wagga Wagga.

The hall is used to host community events including Anzac Ceremony, Christmas Dinner, Men’s BBQ Nights, and Exercise classes. Additionally, the hall is hired out for private functions including birthday parties, weddings, family reunions and farming forums.

Today the hall is still maintained by the volunteer community members.
