Top 40th Birthday Party Venues in Brisbane
Ready to celebrate the big 4-0? When getting started with your party planning it always helps to consider your guest list. Maybe you will need to invite families, perhaps a kid friendly party is what you need? Or perhaps you are inviting older guests? If these types are on your guest list then a dance club or a late night bar crawl might be unsuitable. Instead consider a restaurant or pub function room with a convivial atmosphere. Maybe you’re looking for something with a view? Nature-loving Brisbane has venues that will let you ponder the beauty of the outdoors with a cocktail in hand! So whatever you have in mind for your celebration, Tagvenue’s list of Brisbane’s top 40th birthday party venues will surely come in handy.

If you’re looking for a gastronomical experience, then Milton, with its plethora of international restaurants, will satisfy the foodie in you. Fortitude Valley is where you can go for a wild night at a club. Head to South Brisbane, adjacent to the Brisbane River, for waterfront venues.
There are a lot of ways to make your birthday celebrations more fun. You can create a theme for your party and encourage your guests to dress up. The theme can be anything from a famous movie or TV show to a specific era in history. If having a themed birthday isn’t your thing, you can incorporate some games into your celebration, such as mini golf or even board games. You can hire a professional photographer to capture the emotions of the night or hire a photo booth to have fun taking pics on your own. Lastly, karaoke is always a hit, so give it a go for a fun-filled 40th birthday party.
