Christmas Party Venues in Western Suburbs

December staff functions out west tend to need big floor plans, and the four venues here range from a single private room in Sunshine to a pub bistro in Point Cook that holds 700 on its feet. All four name Christmas or end-of-year parties among the events they host.

For the office end-of-year, compare:

• The Phoenix Hotel, Point Cook: function areas reservable any day of the week, the Terrace for 100 seated and two-course plated dinners from $49 per person.
• The Manhattan Ballroom @ Plaza Tavern, Hoppers Crossing: 200 to 300 seated for a staff dinner, canapés from $29 per person.
• WestWaters, Caroline Springs: a lakeside private dining room, and the Panorama Room for 30 to 70 cocktail-style.
• Function Room @ Glengala Hotel, Sunshine: a private bar and dance floor for 60 to 70 seated, two-course menus from $50 per person.
• Presentations: Plaza supplies a data projector, screen and wifi, and Glengala and the Phoenix Board Room both have projectors.

Because the Phoenix reserves its function areas any day of the week, a midweek December night is an option there, while the larger rooms at Plaza and WestWaters suit whole-company dinners.
