School Formal Venues in Taylors Lakes

Grand arrivals, a sit-down dinner for the whole cohort and room to dance: those are the three things a Year 12 committee usually asks of a formal venue. Lakeside, the banquet and convention centre on the Melton Hwy, hosts school functions among its weddings and corporate nights, with event coordinators on staff.

A small lake and gardens sit outside, which gives students a ready-made backdrop for photos before dinner.

• The Lakeview Ballroom fits between 230 and 650, entered by a double staircase.
