How much does hiring an event space in Brisbane for watching the Melbourne Cup cost?

Most event spaces in Brisbane operate on a minimum-spend basis rather than a flat rental fee. This means you don't pay a set fee to use the space but commit to spending a certain amount on food and drinks during your event. Depending on the venue's location, size, and popularity, the cost ranges from $700 to $6,500. If you want to purchase an event package from a venue, depending on the type of offer and any inclusions, you should expect to pay from $20 to $200+ per person. (All data from Tagvenue.)
