The Matcham Hall is a small, historic public hall located in the picturesque Matcham and Holgate Valleys of the NSW Central Coast. Established in 1916, the Hall was built by members of the local community to serve as a focus for activities and entertainment. In the early years, the Hall was used for community dances and get togethers, for Sunday Services before the foundation of the St George's Church and for meetings on community issues.

The Matcham Hall remains one of the few public halls in NSW still owned and run by the community. The Matcham Hall is run by the Matcham Public Hall Association, a registered non-profit community organisation incorporated under the Dept of Fair Trading Act. Membership of the Association is available to any residents of Matcham or Holgate through our Secretary. Application forms are available here. The Hall is maintained and run through the Matcham Public Hall Committee, a group of volunteers elected at the Annual General Meeting held in November each year. The work of the Committee is to maintain and support the Hall through fund-raising and voluntary labour and to ensure that the Hall remains available for the use of the entire Community.

The Hall hosts a variety of activities and social groups including dance and Tai Chi classes. There are regular meetings of the local garden club and the Rare Plants Society. The Hall also hosts community meetings such as CCProtect Environment group, Wildlife ARC and the Central Coast Environment Network. On a lighter note, the Hall is also the site of frequent parties, BBQs, kid's discos.
