Alhambra Hall is nestled in the Old Village section of Mount Pleasant. Overlooking the Charleston Harbor, this former Ferry Terminal is appointed with hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings and breezy southern porches that wrap three sides of the building. We host only one event per day so there are no conflicts between events.

Alhambra Hall – All rentals Saturday through Thursday night may end as late as midnight (12:00 am) and Friday night at (1:00 am). But, please keep in mind that your evening rental cost includes use of the venue for an event lasting no more than six (6) hours. So, plan your start and end times accordingly.
If necessary, all lights will be turned on fifteen (15) minutes after the stated times, and the clean-up time-frame will begin immediately. The renter has two (2) hours after the event to clean and remove equipment.
Lakeside Pavilion – All rentals end at midnight with one (1) hour to clean up following the event.
- Is there a special rate for Mount Pleasant Residents? Can I book the hall for someone else?
We offer a discounted rate for residents booking for their IMMEDIATE family only (parent, spouse, child, sibling). Please see our page about fees and our sample contract for specifics. We cannot make exceptions to the qualifications.
- Does the Town provide staff to clean up the facility?
No, the booking party is responsible for having their catering staff or someone else clean the hall after the event. They have two hours at Alhambra Hall and one hour at the Pavilion after their event ends to perform this cleaning and trash removal.
- Are the facilities handicap accessible?
Alhambra Hall has exterior ramps into the building and an elevator to access the main hall which is located on the second floor.
- Does the rental include any linens or supplies?
No, the booking party is responsible for all set-up needs. A limited number of tables and chairs are included with the rental for inside use only.
- I’m getting married at Alhambra Hall – where and when can I hold my rehearsal?
Please arrange to practice at another location or schedule your rehearsal earlier on your rental day. If you choose to rehearse at Alhambra Park (located across the street) you must stay on the park side and no parking spaces on the hall side are to be used. The hall is booked on most dates. The booking party has use of the hall and parking. A rehearsal would interrupt their event and use of the hall.

Please use this link to hire an officer.
- I would like to have alcohol at my Alhambra Hall event. What are the restrictions?
The details of the alcohol policy are laid out in the contract. The two most important items are that if you have alcohol on-site, we require a Mount Pleasant off-duty police officer. Second, we require that you hire either a certified license bar service or take out your own liability insurance policy listing the Town of Mount Pleasant as additionally insured.
- Is there a stove or oven at Alhambra Hall?
No, but we do have a warming oven.
