Christmas Party Venues in Belconnen

What to Know Before Booking Christmas Party Venues

Belconnen's end-of-year choices split between the town centre beside Lake Ginninderra and a club in Macquarie. Two of the three venues sit in Belconnen itself, a pub on Emu Bank and an event floor eleven storeys up, while the Macquarie club handles mid-sized seated dinners.

How the three compare for a work Christmas party:

59 Cameron Ave Conference & Event Centre: its combined hall takes 400 for cocktails or 280 at banquet tables, with menus from $65 per person.
Bar 59, on the same level, is a 230 square metre licensed bar that can be booked privately for Christmas drinks.
The Lighthouse Pub: a covered beer garden for up to 150 with lake views, and share-style packages from $26 per person.
The pub's Sports Bar closes off fully for up to 70, with its own pool table and twin screens.
Canberra Southern Cross Club Jamison in Macquarie: the Catchpole Room takes 80 seated, and canapé packages start from $35 per person, minimum 30 guests.

Very large teams belong in the town centre, where the event floor caters for 10 to 400 guests.
A relaxed pub party points to Emu Bank, where the main bar stays open to the public but the Sports Bar does not.
A seated dinner for 30 to 80 suits the Macquarie club's split-level room.
Smaller groups have the event centre's Brindabella room for 80 seated, or the club's 16-seat boardroom.
