Christmas Party Venues in Oakleigh

What to Know Before Booking Christmas Party Venues

Work teams can wrap up the year at the Oakleigh Junction Hotel, where OJ Lounge @ Oakleigh Junction Hotel gives a group of up to 100 a room and a bar of its own. The pub faces Oakleigh train station on Portman Street, so staff can head home by train, bus or taxi once the night ends.

Why the room works for an end-of-year party:

Its own fully stocked bar, so the team isn't queuing at the sports bar.
Packages bundle food and beverage staff and a security guard, which leaves the organiser free to join in.
A bar tab can be capped at a set limit, keeping the work budget in check.
Platters cover gluten free selections as well as seafood and cheese.
TVs and AV for the year-in-review slides.

For a team that wants to dance once the speeches are done, a five-hour DJ can be added and the pool table moved out of the way.

Silver and Gold packages each run five hours, with Gold adding platters and a larger bar tab.
Extra platters can be ordered for bigger teams or longer nights.
Bar tabs cover beer, wine, spirits, soft drinks and cocktails.
The host gets a cocktail on arrival with the Gold package.

Running the work party on the night

Security comes with both packages.
Bluetooth lets the social committee run its own playlist.
Booth seating gives quieter colleagues somewhere to talk.
Team photos can come from the digital photo booth, hired as an extra.
