About Glenelg Pier Hotel
The Glenelg Pier Hotel sits on Holdfast Promenade, right on the beachfront at Glenelg. Its events rooms, run as Events by Pier Hotel, sit beneath the Glenelg Oaks Plaza and look straight across the sand. The space is made up of several rooms that work alone or together. Smaller rooms suit 10 to 50 guests, and opening them up gives room for 300 at a cocktail party or 170 seated, with each room opening directly onto the promenade. The venue takes weddings, milestone celebrations, product launches, presentation nights and corporate meetings. An events team handles menu planning, audio-visual set-up, lighting, styling and drinks. Menus are written by the chef around seasonal Australian produce, from canapés to plated two-course dinners, and drinks run on packages or a bar tab. Every room comes with an AV system, Wi-Fi, music connection, linen and service staff. For weddings, beach ceremony packages set up chairs, an arbour and a signing table on the sand, with an indoor room held in reserve if the weather turns. Wedding packages include venue hire, personalised menus and a menu tasting for the couple.

Great pub and location. We celebrated the AFL grand final with a packed venue, $75 drinks package. Great fun and service with views to match.

Great location. The menu looked good also but we were in a bit of a rush. Looks like the sort of place you could spend a relaxing arvo at and take in the sea views.
