Stretching from the famous Flinders Street Station all the way up to Queen Victoria Market (which gets a special festive look for the silly season!), Melbourne's CBD is the city’s favourite location for office Christmas parties. The Central Business District is an all-important corporate hub, but it knows how to have tremendous fun too! The iconic little laneways boast heaps of cosy pubs, fancy bars and restaurants offering special menus for the holiday season. Often described as the fastest-growing part of Melbourne, the Western Suburbs are anything but boring! So, what’s on offer? From function rooms for grand banquets to community halls of all kinds, the area is packed full of party venues. If you’re looking for a Christmas Soiree with a view, be sure to check out Werribee, a picturesque suburb in South West Melbourne. The Southside prides itself on picturesque beaches and hip neighbourhoods with the likes of St Kilda, South Yarra, Windsor and Prahran. If you’re on the lookout for quirky Christmas party that will leave your guests talking for months, the southern part of Melbourne is the place to go!
If you are looking for a unique experience, Christmas party cruises along Melbourne's stunning waterfront provide beautiful decorations and scenic views, perfect for getting into the festive spirit. Additionally, rooftop bars offer memorable settings for drinks receptions with breathtaking city views. Beachside venues are also popular for Christmas barbecues, combining festive celebrations with a relaxed outdoor atmosphere. For a more elegant affair, consider hosting an al fresco dinner and wine tasting at one of the city's many restaurants that offer outside spaces for hire during the Christmas season. These venues provide a charming setting for your guests to enjoy a festive feast in style.
For groups of less than 30 people, we recommend hiring a private dining room in one of Melbourne’s restaurants. Don’t forget that Melbourne is world-famous for its coffee culture – many coffee shops in town hire their pretty spaces for parties. If you’re after a boozy bash, then many bars in Melbourne offer special private areas that are perfect for small Christmas parties. If you wish to organise a budget-friendly christmas party, a small venue will be perfect for it. We’re ready to help you to pick the perfect space – we promise it won’t take long!
