Our favourite Christmas party game is the white elephant gift exchange. This is where everyone brings a gift and puts it in a pile with all the others. Then everyone takes a number and takes turns picking a gift from the pile! This can be a fun game that helps everyone get into the Christmas spirit; there are even fun variants where you can implement stealing and sabotage!
Music during the Christmas celebration is probably as important as the food and activities! After all, music puts people in the right mood. Whether you want to hire a live band or just make a hot Christmas playlist, we strongly recommend having some classic Christmas tunes at your party—it can add a lot to the party’s feel. Always remember to check if your party venue has sound equipment so you can play your music and if they have any noise restrictions!
While the CBD offers excellent connectivity and plenty of exciting Christmas party venues, don't overlook the affordability and quality found away from the city center. Kings Cross boasts fantastic Christmas restaurants and atmospheric function rooms, easily accessible by bus or light rail. For a scenic ocean view away from the city's hustle and bustle, we highly recommend Manly. Have you ever dreamed of an oceanfront Christmas venue in northern Sydney?

Top Tips for Booking a Fun Christmas Party Venue in Sydney
Book early
Start your search by June or at least 6 months out. Venues in Sydney disappear quickly in December, especially for Fridays and Saturdays. Early planning means better venues, better times, and less stress.
Choose a convenient location
Sydney traffic is no joke. Pick venues close to public transport, or with nearby parking for guests driving in. Popular areas like Surry Hills, The Rocks, and Darlinghurst have tons of Christmas-ready spaces within walking distance of train stations or major bus lines.
Know your guest count
Before browsing, finalise your numbers. Use our platform to browse venues that fit your group—whether it’s 15 people for cocktails or 100 for a sit-down dinner.
Lock in a theme or activity
Want a festive photobooth, karaoke setup, or space for Secret Santa gift exchanges? Add some structure to your night—it helps guests relax and keeps the atmosphere fun. Some Sydney venues even offer Christmas-themed decor packages or entertainment add-ons. Take a look at our 15 Christmas Party Dress-Up Themes for some inspiration.
Confirm music options
Planning to bring a band, DJ, or just a solid Christmas playlist? Always check:
- Does the venue have AV/sound equipment?
- Are there any noise curfews or sound restrictions?
- Is the space suited for dancing or live music?
