With so many options available in Brisbane, finding a space that aligns perfectly with your event vision is effortless. Whether you prefer traditional pub fare or modern Asian cuisine, the CBD offers a diverse range of dining options. For a more refined experience, consider George Street, where premier function rooms and conference spaces in iconic hotels await. Along Adelaide Street, high-end dining establishments provide sophisticated atmospheres guaranteed to impress discerning guests. Fortitude Valley is renowned for its eclectic mix of bars, pubs, and clubs, offering private and semi-private event spaces ranging from grungy dive bars to trendy cocktail lounges along Ann Street. The area also boasts some of Brisbane's finest eateries. Spring Hill features excellent bars and small outdoor function venues near Roma Street Parkland, ideal for enjoying fresh air and scenic city views. Nearby Wickham Terrace has numerous restaurants with specialised menus, ranging from traditional pubs to stylish cocktail lounges, all within walking distance of the park.

There are plenty of options available in Brisbane—and they don't have to cost an arm and a leg. Outside the city centre you can find more budget-friendly spaces perfect for small your celebrations. With minimum spend pricing, you won't have to worry about breaking the bank for your next event. You just need to pay a certain amount for food and drinks while the venue hire comes for free. You may be able to get away with spending less on your event if you hire a cheap function venue that allows outside catering or bringing your own food. You can also save money by holding your event on a weekday as many venues offer cheaper rates than on weekends.

Your Guide to Hiring Small Function Venues in Brisbane

As you might imagine, Brisbane has a lot to offer when it comes to small function venues to hire, so the only really important factors are your preferences and your budget. You can’t go wrong with checking out small hotel function rooms, which come in a huge variety of layouts, price points and atmospheres (especially as you follow the river from the Botanic Gardens to Story Bridge). These are especially good for small business meetings, regardless of whether you need a conference room or something featuring fancy drinks with little umbrellas sticking out of them.

If hotels are a bit too formal, try your luck with clubs, bars, and pubs with small private function rooms for reasonable prices (plus nothing brings a group together like getting some drinks in a speakeasy near Victoria Bridge!). Co-working spaces will also offer smaller-sized offices for a daily or monthly fee. You can even look into a few places that aren’t readily apparent, such as municipal buildings like the Old Government House or a local university space. 

Wherever your search takes you, don’t forget to check out hire offers to ensure that they include light refreshments or perhaps even lunch, depending on your timing. The incidentals can often add up quickly, no matter how small the group is!
