About Mona

Mona is a privately owned museum of art at 655 Main Road, Berriedale, on the River Derwent north of the Hobart city centre. Alongside its galleries it runs restaurants and bars, and it sells functions in the museum, around the grounds, on its ferries and off site. Inside the museum, The Source Restaurant seats 60 or holds 80 standing, with glass walls looking out over the water. Smaller spaces seat 30 or 44, and one takes 100 for a stand-up event. For larger groups, The Void holds up to 250 standing and the Nolan gallery up to 450 standing, so guests can mingle among the collection. Bespoke exclusive events can be designed for groups of 20 up to 1,000. Prices are set per guest, starting at $250 per person for the smaller spaces and climbing for the galleries and exclusive events. Each space has its own minimum, from 20 guests for The Source to 50 for The Void and the Nolan gallery. Mona's ferry can also be hired for functions of 50 to 250 people, and the museum can organise transport to and from your event. Prices for the ferry and transport are quoted on request.
