Christmas Party Venues in Umina Beach

What to Know Before Booking Christmas Party Venues

Small businesses on the Peninsula looking for a weeknight end-of-year drinks spot will find the Ocean Beach Hotel easy to work with: Monday to Thursday bookings start From $500 minimum spend, and every function space gets four hours and a bartender assigned to it.

Corner Lounge Bar: on the Trafalgar Avenue corner, with two TVs, for 20 seated or 30 on foot
Projector and microphone in the Westview Room for a quick word from the boss
Platters, a DJ or a karaoke host can all be added

Ask the events team about late November and December dates and anything else to tailor.

Platter menu: sliders, skewers, wood-fired pizza and charcuterie for grazing while people talk
All-in-one: hire, platters, linen, candles and a tea and coffee station packaged for 40 to 50
Behind the bar: one dedicated bartender per booked space
After the speeches: a mimosa bar, karaoke host or DJ
