A few things to consider

Venue Hire & Minimum Spends

There is a $2000 hire fee for full venue bookings. This is not included in the minimum spend.

Being a seasonal venue, our min spend to secure a space exclusively is highest during summer months. Our Functions team will be able to help navigate through the options for your event.

18th & 21st Birthdays

We are unable to host 18th and 21st birthday whole venue functions.

Large Seated Groups

Due to the layout of the building, seated groups larger than 110 guests will need to be split across two rooms for sit down meals.

Vendors

Vendors must ‘bump in’ and ‘bump out’ on the same day as the booking.

December & January

We do not take Full Venue bookings in December or January
