    • Ekom E. ★★★★ I had my wedding reception there last week. Almost 600 souvenirs (flat tongues, hair dryer, umbrellas, 3-in -1 towels, lighters) was stolen from our bus at the premises of this Event45. The bus was parked right in front of the security house, visible enough for the security guys to see. The securities were around but when asked, all kept mute without response or any reaction of such thing happening on their watch. It felt like nothing to them. Throughout the event, the gate was closed. Cars could not drive in without anyone's notice. The persons who opened our bus, and took such large amount of souvenirs right in front of the security house definitely was seen. We were told during payment for the centre, of its high security standard and CCTV cameras. Upon asking for the outside security cameras footage, we were told it was not working which i find hard to believe, suddenly the outside security cameras was not working. It was very heart breaking for me as a bride to see this. Most of my guest who came from far and near, left without souvenirs. I would be wary to book this centre again in future for any of my events. I was the bride that day, it was "My day". Imagine such an embarrassing situation and wicked act which could not be defended by the said securitys in the centre. This Event45 centre served me poorly!!!,
    • Benny E. ★★★★★ A very Classy event center I would say,fully air conditioned and with ample parking space.. Located in State housing Estate in calabar..you can always count on Thier facility cos it's actually one of the best in town but the road leading there is beginning to get bad and needs Resurfacing..This is State housing Estate for God sake and it houses several top politicians in the state including the former governor Senator Professor Ben Ayade etc

    • Isaac F. ★★★★★ Beautiful experience and great view.
    • Perpetual N. ★★★★ I actually didn't go for an event, I just went to try out one of their local dish- the afang soup. I had a wonderful experience. It's quite a lovely place with a nice view and not so noisy environment. I saw vendors, both local and international, trying to advertise their goods. I took a glance at the theatre and also listened to people conversing in the Efik language.
