The Ordre Hospitalier et Courtois des Chevaliers de St Bacchus consists of an executive body, the International Order Committee, and of one Grand Constablery per member country, i.e. France (legal seat of the Order), Belgium and England. The Order has some 800 members in total in these three countries.
2017 saw the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the Order, celebrated through a Masterly Chapter grouping the three countries to solemnize the celebration.
This exceptional international Chapter, which gathered 140 members, was held on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 October 2017 in Hythe (Kent, England), following the similar Chapters held in 2007 at the Hospices de Beaune (Burgundy, France) for the 60th anniversary and at the Town Hall and Béguinage of Louvain in Belgium in 2012 for the 65th anniversary.
In 2018, the normal agenda of Masterly Chapters will be resumed, with induction of Knights and Gentle Ladies: 5 Chapters in Belgium (Brugge, Alost, Antwerp, Leuven and St Niklaas), one Chapter in England and one in France , in Reims on 20 October.
