About The Lantern
The Lantern is an event space in the heart of St. John's, located just behind the Basilica. It offers a range of facilities that can accommodate a variety of programs and events. Six spaces are available for rent, from the smallest meeting room (320 sq ft) to the Conference Centre (4,130 sq ft). Revenues from room rentals cover operational costs and subsidize peer support and community groups that cannot pay. Regular users say the space is always clean, ready to go, and without a hitch. The staff are great people to work with, and the atmosphere feels well cared for and loved. The Lantern hosts weddings, birthdays, showers, retirement parties, weekly events, non‑profit activities, and even a kitchen on site for catering or cooking yourself. A counselling organization, RUAH, also meets here. The space is perfect for any event, with abundant parking and multiple rooms of many different sizes.

Quiet place with variously equipped rooms. They largely rely on volunteers who are always marvelous. Parking isn't great but you can generally find a spot that's near.

Amazing space and incredible staff! Plus it's a non-profit that's giving back to the community - I will definitely be booking here again!!
