Birthday Party Venues in Redhead

Choosing the Right Birthday Party Venue

Few birthday rooms put the surf this close. The Shark Tower Function Room @ Redhead Surf Life Saving Club is upstairs in the clubhouse at 1C Beach Road, which sits right at the edge of the sand, and a wall of glass along the front of the building keeps the beach and the headland in view from almost every table.

The club has patrolled Redhead Beach since 1908, and hire fees go back into the volunteer club – a nice touch for a local family birthday.

Why a surf club room suits a birthday:

The view – the surf and headland fill the windows.
A balcony – step outside for fresh air and group photos above the beach.
Flexible furniture – the club's photos show long rustic tables for dinner, round tables and lounge settings by the windows.
Beer on tap – the clubhouse has its own bar, and drink packages are available.
Midweek savings – weekday bookings start from $500 room hire, with weekend hire priced higher.

It suits a beachside 30th with lounge settings and drinks, a family 70th over a long dinner, or a midweek celebration that makes the most of the lower room-hire rate.

Check dates online – the club posts a calendar of booked and free dates on its website.
Catering – food for functions isn't set out online, so talk through options with the functions manager.
Rules of hire – ask the functions manager for the club's conditions before you finalise the plan.
Enquiries – bookings are made by enquiry form, phone or email to the functions manager.

Shaping the party in the Shark Tower

Lounge style – arrange lounge settings by the windows for a relaxed drinks-and-nibbles birthday.
Sit-down dinner – long rustic tables suit speeches and a cake after the meal.
Daylight or sunset – plan around the light on the beach for the best photos from the balcony.
Supporting the club – the money from hire goes back into the volunteer surf club.
