Party Activities: What to Consider

Group activities in the Southern Highlands suit people who want to make something, taste something or spend time outdoors on a farm. Most are small and hosted, which keeps the mood relaxed and lets everyone take part, whatever their age or skill.

Several operators work with teams only, while the Bowral studios host social groups and birthdays and one Exeter cellar door takes private birthday lunches, so check who each one takes.

The main kinds of activity across the region:

  • Paint and sip and art sessions in Bowral, from weekend paint parties to guided classes with a long-time teacher
  • Craft workshops for teams at a Robertson studio, covering weaving, felt hat making or drawing
  • Wine, gin and beer experiences around Berrima, Joadja and Exeter, from guided cellar door tastings at $15 per person to hosted distillery sessions at $59 per person
  • Horse riding and groundwork sessions for small work groups at Woodlands

Plan a whole program on the team building page, or add a celebration meal from the venues list.

Common Questions About Party Activities

What can a group do in the Southern Highlands besides lunch?

Art and craft classes, winery and distillery tastings, and horse sessions on a farm all suit groups, depending on the occasion and size.

Which Highlands activities are open to birthday parties?

Bowral paint studios host birthday groups, and some welcome children. For adults, a family cellar door in Exeter can be reserved for a birthday lunch with a guided tasting, while the horse sessions and other tasting operators focus on teams.

Are there outdoor group activities in the Southern Highlands?

Horse sessions at Woodlands run outdoors in the paddocks, and some vineyards host groups outside under cover in warmer weather.

What is the smallest group size for a Highlands activity?

Horse sessions take six to eight people, distillery tastings start at eight, and some Bowral paint parties need ten or more. A guided cellar door tasting in Exeter suits much smaller groups, with boards pre-ordered for three or more.

Do any Bowral studios welcome kids?

Yes, at least one Bowral paint studio welcomes children, which makes it an option for family birthdays with mixed ages.
