How a Blue Mountains Graduation Party Comes Together

Graduation parties in the Mountains are mostly family affairs held at home, on a deck or in a garden, with grandparents, classmates and the teachers who helped along the way. The day is about the graduate, so keep the program light and the photos plentiful.

Because so much happens outdoors, the hire order matters more than the menu.

What families usually hire for a graduation party:

  • A marquee with walls, flooring and heaters, so the garden works whatever the afternoon does
  • Tables, chairs, linen and tableware, brought in and packed away by the hire crew
  • A mirror photo booth for pictures in caps and gowns
  • A small PA and microphone for the speech and a playlist
  • Festoon lighting if the party runs past sunset
  • Balloons and signage in the school or university colours from party decorations

Katoomba hire firms cover every part of the Mountains, including the valleys. Browse event furniture hire and marquee hire to compare.

Timing the party

  • Hold it the weekend after the ceremony, while the gown is still on hand
  • December graduations clash with Christmas events, so book hire early
  • Mid-year ceremonies fall in the coldest months, so plan for heaters and an indoor fallback

Hire and set-up

  • Ask whether the firm will hold a date while you confirm numbers
  • Measure the lawn before choosing a marquee size
  • Check the truck can reach the yard on a steep or narrow street

Making it about the graduate

  • Display photos from the first day of school to the final exam
  • Invite a teacher or mentor to say a few words
  • Put out a card box for messages and advice

Will a Katoomba hire firm deliver to the Megalong Valley?

Yes. The hire firm on this page covers all five areas of the Mountains, including the Megalong and Hartley valleys, and sets up and packs down.

Is a mirror photo booth worth hiring for a graduation?

It gives guests a printed keepsake and gets the graduate into plenty of pictures in the cap and gown.

A few weeks ahead for most of the year, and earlier for December, when graduations overlap with Christmas parties.

Does a winter graduation party in the Mountains need heaters?
