Hello,

Maybe this can be included in the "events_centre" proposal [1], which can be extended to cover places that hosts private events.

There are a number of places in my area that allow you to rent space for a private party or other gathering. Typically, they provide tables, chairs, etc., along with perhaps a bar or other services.

OSM doesn't seem to have a standardized tag for this. The ones I've found in use are:
1    amenity_1    event hall
1    amenity        event
4    amenity        event_center
1    amenity        event centre
5    amenity        event_centre
2    amenity        event_hall
2    amenity        event_location
2    amenity        event_space
1    amenity        event_vanue
4    amenity        event_venue
1    amenity        function_centre, wedding venue
1    amenity        function hall
1    amenity        function_hall
9    amenity        function_room
1    amenity        function_rooms
1    amenity        restaurant;event_location
1    building    event_hall
4    building    Event_hall
1    building    Event_Venue
1    building    function hall
1    building:use    event_hall
1    designation    event center
1    designation    Event Center
1    designation    Event Hall
2    designation    Event location
1    designation    Event Venue
1    landuse        event_center
1    leisure        event_location
1    office        event hall
1    tourism        Function Hall
1    type        function_hall
1    usage        event_hall
3    usage        Event_hall


...along with a bunch shoehorned into name or description, and sometimes using other inappropriate but understandably close tags like amenity=community_centre.

I think this should be standardized.

There are a couple of considerations that should be made:
a) How to distinguish this from amenity=community_centre and amenity=social_centre (intuitively obvious, but perhaps tricky to write) b) How to deal with wedding venues. There are many places (hotels, B&Bs, etc) that don't exclusively host events but are well prepared to and do so on a regular basis, and even advertise such. Sometimes the space usage is ambiguous or reconfigurable. Is this worth worrying about or should we leave the boundary fuzzy and let mappers decide case-by-case in tricky situations?

Finally, what should the chosen tag be?
