The GrandWay Events Centre
About
Located in Elora, Ontario, just on the edge of the village, The GrandWay Event Centre is home to several versatile spaces that can accommodate a wide range of events. The 53-acre grounds are also home to the Grand River Raceway.
The GrandWay is owned and operated by the Grand River Agricultural Society (GRAS), a not-for-profit corporation, incorporated under the Agricultural and Horticultural Societies Act of Ontario.
In 2019, the new event centre was born from the collective commitment of the board of directors whose mandate includes supporting and providing facilities to encourage activities intended to enrich rural life. As a social enterprise, the funds generated by The GrandWay support the philanthropic initiatives of GRAS.

OUR SPACES
Have your ceremony outside on our large beautiful patio and ceremony inside! You could also consider involving several different areas of the venue in the day’s plan. A cocktail reception that flows from the outdoor patio into the main banquet hall. A dinner with elegantly dressed tables in the ballroom with a large dance floor for the evening reception. Our Wedding Coordinators can assist you with making your wedding day a Grand one!
Please note we provide elegant and flexible catering options to our weddings, no outside catering is allowed at this time.
GrandWay Hall
224 GUESTS* | OUTDOOR PATIO SPACE | DIVIDABLE ROOM
Built in 2020, the 3,800-square-foot hall is one of the largest event spaces in Centre Wellington, accommodating up to 224 guests. If this is more than you need, we can divide the room into a split of 80 and 64 people – or just use the whole room and make the dance floor larger!
Large windows look out onto the 53-acre property and a beautiful partially covered patio space, perfect for a cocktail hour or an outdoor ceremony. A neutral colour palette embraces a rustic yet elegant style, allowing you to put your personal touch on the space.
The GrandWay Hall can be used in conjunction with our grounds for an outdoor ceremony or the River Room as an indoor alternative.
River Room
48 GUESTS* | 945 SF
The River Room shows you that it doesn’t have to be big to be Grand. Located in the new GrandWay Event Centre, it provides an intimate location for a small wedding, bridal shower, or another ceremony.
This room still has all of the beautiful finishes of the GrandWay Hall. Embracing a rustic yet elegant style, it has a very neutral colour palette that allows you to put your personal touch on the space in any accent colour of your choosing.
*Room capacity is dependent on room configuration. Connect with an Events and Experiences Coordinator to discuss the best options.
