About Southern Cross Yacht Club

The Yacht Club is the Canberra Southern Cross Club's lakeside venue at Lotus Bay in Yarralumla, on the shore of Lake Burley Griffin. Its restaurant trades from Wednesday to Sunday and is also taken over for private events. The whole Yacht Club Restaurant can be hired, holding up to 300 guests standing or 160 seated. A booking can take in the full bar, the lounge areas and the balcony, and while a private event is running, other diners can't use the restaurant or balcony. The Balcony looks out over the lake and is sheltered from the weather while staying light and open, and it can be booked on its own. For a smaller group, the Lotus Room offers private dining with a view of the water. The club's events team runs Christmas functions at the Yacht Club and sends its function package on request. Menus come from the club's chefs and can be adjusted for dietary requirements. On-site parking is free for the first three hours, with charges after that. The club is a licensed venue, and ACT residents dining there need to be members or be signed in by one.
