Birthday Party Venues in Gungahlin

Choosing the Right Birthday Party Venue

Birthday options in Gungahlin are spread over five suburbs, and each leans a different way. The Town Centre and Casey have pubs with large group areas, Crace and Forde have casual restaurants with set packages, and Nicholls has a courtyard pub on Gold Creek Road.

Matching the birthday to the suburb:

Gungahlin Town Centre: Palmers seats 80 to 90 in Outside Dining, or around 150 with a standing mix, and its buffet starts from $35 per person.
Casey: Casey Jones has the upstairs Platform Bar for 60 standing with its own bar and bathroom, though the pub does not host 18th birthdays.
Crace: The District has a dedicated 18th package and welcomes 21sts, with functions from $50 per person.
Forde: the function area at Frankies at Forde takes 40 at long tables, rising to 80 when the outdoor space is added, from $55 per person.
Nicholls: parties at The George Harcourt Inn gather in the rear courtyard, which has its own stage and a fountain.

The District in Crace has its own 18th package; guests under 18 stay with an adult throughout.
Casey Jones rules out 18ths, though other milestones are welcome.
For a 21st with a big crowd, Palmers' Outside Dining runs to about 150, with heaters for cold nights.
Frankies at Forde lets hosts in half an hour early to decorate, and The District will hang decorations dropped off beforehand.

Casual or private: the Gungahlin room choice

Fully private: the Platform Bar at Casey Jones, or the whole of Frankies at Forde for one inclusive price.
Semi-private: Palmers' Main Dining keeps your tables, but the room stays open to guests heading to the bar.
Small and sheltered: the Queen Pergola at The George Harcourt Inn, closed in with roof heating and curtains for the cold.
Platters by the tray suit grazing parties at Casey Jones and Palmers, and The George Harcourt Inn adds a pavlova platter.
