Our Chapels
Our award winning Jubilee Chapel Complex houses three non-denominational chapels with adjoining lounge facilities where family and friends can gather after the service for light refreshments. Burial, cremation and memorial services can all be held within the Complex.
The Jubilee Chapel Complex was the first of its kind in Australia and led the way with the introduction of lounge facilities.
As funeral services evolve increasingly into celebrations of life, Centennial Park also provides in service audio visual presentation and long lasting DVD recordings as a lasting memory for future generations.
Heysen
Named after South Australian artist Sir Hans Heysen, this is the largest of our three chapels with seating capacity of 250 and an overflow area to accommodate up to 500 people.
Recently upgraded, this chapel while considerable in size maintains a warm ambience with strong timber features, attractive plants and light filled leadlight capped towers.
On the ground level there is seating for approximately 150 with a further 100 accommodated in the upstairs mezzanine level. There is ample space to the front of the chapel for appropriate musical and other personal tributes.
Audio visual presentations are displayed via a plasma screen and large projection screen. An electric organ is available as required.
The chapel has an Induction Loop which magnetically transmits sound to hearing aid wearers.
With portico accessibility to the rear it is possible to carry the coffin into the Heysen Chapel.
Adjoining is a large lounge facility where family and friends can gather after the service for light refreshments.
Large Services
For those services that will exceed the capacity of this chapel there is the option of booking both the Heysen & Florey (seating for 90) Chapels with an audio visual link between the two. In addition a plasma screen is positioned in the foyer area enabling considerably large numbers to attend.
Florey
The Florey Chapel is suitable for seating 90 people with additional standing room to the rear. The chapel is named after famous South Australian and Nobel Prize winner Sir Howard Florey, who refined and developed the use of the life-saving drug Penicillin.
Like the other two chapels the Florey Chapel has a high cathedral like roof with windows providing ample daylight. Attractive greenery wraps around the inside of the chapel and mixed with the warmth of timber creates a very special ambience.
Audio Visual presentations are provided via the use of a large plasma screen at the front of the chapel. An electric organ is available as required.

Mawson
The Mawson Chapel is Centennial Park’s most intimate and is named after famous South Australian, Sir Douglas Mawson who bravely conquered the frozen expanse of Antarctica.
Seating 30 people this is an attractively unique chapel.
The beautiful timber cathedral ceiling combined with the wonderful colours of the sandstone walls, contrasting granite floor at the front and lush greenery and fish filled water feature, combine to make this a very special chapel.
It certainly has an intimate and embracing ambience which is both attractive and serene.
