70th Birthday Parties, Step by Step

A 70th in Brisbane is often a family affair: a long lunch at home or a hired room, several generations at the table, and a few words from the grandchildren. Comfort matters more than spectacle, so plan around seating, shade and an early finish.

Start with the guest of honour's wishes, then build the food and photos around them. A quiet backyard lunch in Ashgrove can mean as much as a big room in the city, and is often easier on guests who tire quickly.

Things to sort for a 70th:

  • A caterer cooking from scratch who can serve a buffet, food stations or a sit-down meal
  • An event photographer to capture family portraits and the speeches
  • Chairs for everyone, including shaded seating if the party is outdoors
  • A daytime start, so older guests can travel home before dark
  • Accessible entry and bathrooms if anyone uses a walker or wheelchair

Browse birthday party venues or a high tea if you would rather not host at home, and see caterers for more food options.
