Firstly, consider looking into event packages that include catering, decorations, and even entertainment, which can save you money in the long run. Secondly, consider venues with minimum spend requirements. When choosing spaces with such a pricing option, you need to spend at least a minimum amount of money on food and drinks during your event. This can be a great option for smaller groups or events with a limited budget. Another great option is looking into venues with the BYO option. These spaces allow you to bring in your own food and drinks, which can save you a significant amount of money. Additionally, consider hosting your event during off-peak seasons, which means avoiding popular dates like weekends, holidays and summer months. If you're flexible with your date, you can snag a great deal. It's also worth looking into the cheaper areas of the Western Suburbs such as Footscray, Sunshine, or Altona, where you might find more budget-friendly venues.

When it comes to booking a function room in Western Suburbs, timing is everything. For most events, it's best to book your function room at least 3-4 months in advance. If you're looking to have a business conference in the bustling, cosmopolitan area of Footscray, it's best to start looking for a venue even earlier. This gives you enough time to plan your event and secure your desired date and time. However, if you're planning a wedding, it's best to book your function room at least a year in advance. This ensures you have plenty of time to plan and that your dream venue is available on your special day. Keep in mind that the Western Suburbs are a prime location, so the earlier you book, the better your chances of securing your desired space.

Some of the top attractions of the West Melbourne area include Queen Victoria Market, Brimbank Park and Point Cook. Western Melbourne is also home to two Melbourne airports, Melbourne Airport and Essendon Fields Airport. The lively environment of this part of Melbourne makes for excellent function planning options here.

The average cost of function venues depends on the number of guests you require to host. Below is a list of prices for guest capacity comparisons. These are taken by averages. In some cases, the costs will be lower or higher than the prices listed below.

  • Small events, from 20 to 50 guests will cost you somewhere between $20 and $40 per person.

Many of the function venues in Western Melbourne are fine-dining hotels, bars, restaurants, and galleries. While all of the venues have their own quality and presenting value, some are a bit more popular than others. These can be for multiple reasons. Usually, popularity depends on guest capacity and price, but there are other factors. Some popular function venues are as follows:

  • Lakeside Banquet and Convention Centre, Taylors Lakes. Taylors Lakes is about 23 km outside of Melbourne. Including this venue, it also has the Taylors Lakes Recreational Club and the Taylors Lakes Football Club. There is also a gardening club and a tennis club in this neighbourhood. A highly recreative area, it is perfect for function venue selections beyond the most obvious choices.
  • Banks or Hawthorn Rooms Amora Hotel, on Riverwalk. The rooms in the Amora have a lovely view of the Yarra River. It is far enough away from the city’s centre to have less congestion. Even so, the hotel is in great proximity to other shopping areas and public recreational facilities. 
  • The Clarendon Room at Manningham Hotel. Built up from modern functionality principles, this is a perfect venue spot for your next event. This room has the capacity for dining and theatre. Dining is catered only by prior notice, and theatre equipment should be brought in by the event staff.

Absolutely outstanding service! The food was incredible! Thrilled we chose Frontside Food & Wine for our special family event for 80 people. Staff went above and beyond to accommodate all requests and communicate in the lead up to the event and on the night was faultless. Couldn’t be happier with the evening. Thank you Ann Marie and team for making our celebration so very special!
