Once you’ve locked in the venue, think about unique entertainment, like live music, a scavenger hunt, or even a magician show. For a more interactive experience, you could organise a cooking class or wine-tasting event, which are popular options in venues around The Rocks or Newtown. You can also personalise your celebration with unique decorations and catering.
