About Us

Decorative setup for an event at Hudson Elks Lodge #959.

Hudson Elks Lodge #959 has been a fixture on 99 Park St for decades, and the moment you walk through the doors, you feel it. The interior has genuine character, the kind that comes from years of real gatherings, not a decorator's checklist. Exposed woodwork, classic lodge details, and a layout that somehow manages to feel both grand and intimate give this space a personality that generic banquet halls simply cannot replicate.

With a 4.4-star rating across 168 reviews, the Lodge has earned its reputation as one of the go-to event destinations in the Hudson-Concord area. Guests consistently point out how the neutral-yet-distinctive interior works with virtually any event theme or decor, meaning your vision stays front and center. The hall has hosted everything from wedding receptions and milestone birthdays to charity fundraisers and the occasional Lucky Pro Wrestling night, which tells you something about the range this place can handle.

The Lodge is more than a rental. It is a living fraternal organization, part of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, with a membership community that keeps this building active and cared for year-round. When you book here, you are stepping into a space with real roots in the town of Hudson.

What We Offer

The Lodge offers a full event venue that scales from intimate gatherings to larger celebrations. The main hall provides ample floor space with no truly bad seat in the house, whether you are setting up rounds for a reception or rows for a ceremony or performance. The room's classic character means decorators have a genuine canvas to work with rather than a blank corporate box.

Beyond the physical space, the Lodge can accommodate a range of event types: wedding receptions, anniversary parties, birthday milestones, fundraising galas, corporate gatherings, and community events. The building's layout supports catering setups, bar service, and stage or performance configurations. Prospective clients are encouraged to tour the space in advance and discuss timing, setup windows, and any specific needs directly with the events coordinator.

As a fraternal organization, Elks Lodge #959 also hosts regular member events, charitable programs, and community-focused activities throughout the year. Membership in the BPOE opens the door to a broader network of lodge benefits, social events, and service opportunities across the region.

"My family was very disappointed with the contact person of Raychel. Was very sweet and welcoming until we signed the contact then it felt like her demeanor changed. She was pushing back on times and tables that we had previously agreed upon. It went from setting up a couple hours (event at 4pm) before the event to 6:30AM-8:30AM and charged an extra $100 the day of for setting up 20 minutes late. My family loved the look of the venue but the atmosphere and people made it not worth the hassle."

"The Hudson-Concord Elks Lodge is a beautiful social club with a good size venue space and lots of character on the interior design. Yet neutral enough that won't fight any event theme or decor that you want to setup. The flow is already established, and when you walk in there is no guessing where the buffet, the DJ or your central decor goes. The bar is really big and all the staff is very competent and nice. This is a great place for a family or social celebration. If you need help planning or decorating your event, check out the event planning and party decor services of "Shall We Go Chic Events, LLC"."

A Proud Heritage

The Elks gave America
Flag Day.

Long before it was a national observance, the Order set aside June 14th to honor the flag. Patriotism has always been one of our cardinal principles, and every lodge meeting still closes the same way it has for over a century.

“To our absent members.” — the Eleven O’Clock Toast
