Most Newcastle hens weekends split in two: something hands-on in the afternoon, then a bar, a boat or a bus once it gets dark. The daytime pick sets the tone. The Art Department on King Street hands a group of 15 to 20 its pottery studio for a clay and sip with BYO drinks, Lake House Clay and Art Studio at Coal Point plans Clay 'n Sip and wreath workshops around hens nights, and The Yellow Door Kitchen in Tighes Hill turns a cooking class into a private event with a long table at the end.
If the bride would rather throw something, MANIAX Axe Throwing Newcastle on King Street coaches groups through games and a final tournament From $47 per person, with a kitchen and bar on site. Novacade VR on Hunter Street books its free-roam arena privately for up to eight players.
Evenings move indoors. Jams Karaoke & Bar in Newcastle West gives the whole bar to 20 to 40 guests From $400 room hire, Newy Distillery in Edgeworth opens its cocktail bar after hours with no hire fee, and The Greenroof in Hamilton has a brick-walled beer garden with a free PA.
