Your Guide to Hiring Fun Christmas Party Venues in Sydney

Are you looking for a perfect space for your Christmas party in Sydney? This city is an incredible place to celebrate, no matter the occasion. Whether you want to have a family-friendly holiday dinner, a couple of drinks with your friends, or a corporate holiday party, we’re here to make sure that you’ll have a great Christmas experience in 2023. Here's a couple of things worth keeping in mind when looking through Sydney's best fun Christmas party venues:

  • Scheduling – Christmas is a busy time of year, and the chances are that not everyone on your guest list will be available on any given day. Choose a date well ahead of time, and don’t worry if not everyone can come. Remember to send your invitations early! Scheduling in advance also has the advantage of making it easier to hire your holiday venue - the closer to Christmas it gets, the harder it becomes to book a specific space for the exact timeframe you want.
  • Decorations – Many of the venues on this list offer great spaces for your gathering; however, you may want to check to see what kinds of decorations are available and what you will need to bring yourself. Fun Christmas restaurants may come pre-decorated, while blank canvas venues will need your creative flair!
  • Activities - Plan some fun activities and other cool things to do at the venue. For example, you can start with some icebreaker games for friends or family. Sometimes you have to encourage participation and get people mingling before the real fun can begin. If you want to have fun in your holiday party space, things like Christmas karaoke or dance parties could be an interesting way of getting your guests engaged.

How to book a fun Christmas party venue in Sydney

Begin way in advance. If you’re serious about finding the perfect Sydney venue for a fun Christmas party, it’s best to be ahead of the curve. That means starting your venue search way before the season! Get started sometime around June or at least 6 months before Christmas. That way you will be able to get almost any venue at the timeframe you want, and it'll be way easier to schedule a time that works for all of your guests. 
Choose the best location. The most important thing about picking the right exciting Christmas party location is finding out how you’re planning to get there. For example, booking a place in your neighbourhood allows you to get there easily by foot. But if you want to use a car, taxi, or bus, you need to look out for a couple things:

  • Parking - Does the venue offer parking options, or is there public parking close-by?
  • Bus stops - How close is the nearest public transport stop, and will the guests have a direct connection there?
  • Distance - How far is the venue from your place? It’s a good idea to estimate how much you'd need to spend on a taxi or hired transport for everyone!

Figure out the headcount. Finalise the list early to ensure you get a large enough space for your guests. Most of your friends and family will know if they can attend your party, especially if you invite them early. When you get the headcount, you can use our filters to view only the fun Christmas venues that can suit your event.

Pick the main theme/activity. While there’s nothing wrong with spontaneity, it’s best to plan at least one fun activity or feature to help the guests break the ice. Anything from a fun dress code to a family-friendly game will do the trick. If you want a holiday dance-off or festive photobooth, ensure you have enough space to make it happen.

Make a shortlist of appropriate venues. Now that you have all the important information figured out, it’s finally time to put all of it into our search engine and search through the list of fun holiday party venues that suit your needs.

Find out the details from venue managers. VMs know their venues best, so they’ll be able to answer all your questions and arrange specific things like food, drinks, and additional amenities. Make sure you’re on the same page before you finalise the booking of your fun Christmas party venue of choice!

Choose a convenient option. When you decide on the venue you want to hire, follow the instructions, read through the terms and conditions, and sign off on your booking. After that, you won’t have to worry about anything, as the venue will handle all the details! Always confirm your booking before the event and ensure that everything is ready for your amazing event.

If you follow our advice, you should have the ultimate exciting Christmas venue lined up for the festivities. Got any more questions? Here are some of the most frequently asked ones:

FAQs about Fun Christmas Party Venues in Sydney

What are some fun Christmas party games for my holiday celebration in Sydney?

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!

Can I play music at a hired Christmas party venue in Sydney?

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!

If you want to find an interesting space for a Christmas celebration in Sydney, you should expect prices anywhere between $100 and $3000 per hour. Holiday party packages in the city tend to cost from $30 to $110 per person, and include food, drinks, and sometimes even activities!

What are the best locations to hire a fun Christmas party space in Sydney?

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.

Jess and the waitstaff. Food was also tasty. Security were also attentive when we had people who refused to move out of our privately booked section. Jess's customer service - impeccable and she did everything in her power to make us comfortable, fed and provided water towers when I advised her people were uncomfortably hot.
