Birthday Party Venues in Ettalong Beach

Choosing the Right Birthday Party Venue

Ettalong Beach birthday parties play out along The Esplanade, where a big RSL club and a glass-fronted restaurant both look over Broken Bay. One handles a crowd of hundreds and the other gives a smaller group the whole room.

Picking the Ettalong venue for your birthday:

A 21st with a dance floor: Ettalong Diggers has a stage and dance floor available to hire, and rooms from 60 seated to 500 standing.
A family 70th with kids: the Diggers has children's menus and marks dietary needs on every menu.
A long lunch for 40: The BOX on the Water seats 30 to 70 for a two-course menu, with glass doors opening to the foreshore.
Spend: $58 per person upward at the Diggers, or $6,500 minimum spend to take over The BOX.
Outdoors: the Pretty Beach Room is an open-air terrace room at the Diggers for up to 80 standing.

Smaller groups of 11 to 30 can also take a shared set menu at The BOX during normal service.

Up to 60 seated: the Pretty Beach Room on the Diggers terrace, looking straight over the beach.
30 to 100: The BOX, seated or with canapés and a seafood spread.
150 to 200 standing: four mid-sized rooms at the club, Patonga and Pearl Beach among them.
350 to 500 standing: the Ettalong Ballroom with its own bar, or the Broken Bay Ballroom.
