Sangha Hall

Welcome to Sangha Hall


Sangha Hall, located at Honpa Hongwanji Hilo Betsuin, is more than just a building—it is a symbol of community, interdependence, and the spirit of Jodo Shinshu Buddhism.


With a spacious 20,500-square-foot design, Sangha Hall offers a versatile venue for various events, including banquets, concerts, fitness and martial arts classes, sports activities, and community gatherings. The hall features a large event space with a stage, a certified kitchen, a conference room, an office, and accessible facilities, making it an inclusive and welcoming space for all.


Sangha Hall continues to be a place where people come together to celebrate life’s milestones, share cultural traditions, and strengthen the bonds of community. Whether you’re attending a joyous celebration, participating in a class, or simply connecting with others, we invite you to experience the warmth and spirit of our Sangha.
