The Centennial Room hosts a wide variety of events, from rehearsal dinners to baby showers, birthday parties to retirement celebrations, to any number of corporate gatherings and meetings, and everything in between. Our goal is to share the spirit of our brewery and to provide a welcoming space for special occasions.
Founders' only private event space, The Centennial Room offers a fully staffed bar, complimentary AV usage, private restrooms, and access to the attached deck via glass garage doors. The room offers seating for 65 guests, with a maximum occupancy of 100 people. When the deck is in use (weather permitting) seating is available for an additional 50 people and increases our total maximum occupancy to 130.
Located on the second story of our facility, the space features two walls of windows with views overlooking Downtown Grand Rapids. The room is outfitted with three large flat-screen televisions and a retractable projector screen for PowerPoint or video presentations. A podium with a microphone can be available for any speeches or group announcements.
Guests can enjoy a hand-picked selection of Founders’ renowned beers with 6 taps featuring popular and seasonal selections. For any non-beer-drinkers we offer an array of other options including draft cocktails, hard cider, wine, and a variety of NA drinks.
We offer bookings in 3-hour minimum blocks. Additional time can be added at a price per-hour charge if available. Free parking (up to 10 hours) is available for guests who use the Founders Parking Lots.
