Birthday Party Venues in Camperdown

Choosing the Right Birthday Party Venue

Parramatta Road does a lot of the work for Camperdown birthdays. The Lady Hampshire at number 91 and the Camperdown Hotel at 138 both take party bookings from about 20 guests, and between them they offer a gig room with a stage and a function room with its own pool table.

Off the main road the choices get more unusual: a stone-paved courtyard inside the University of Sydney grounds, and a timber pavilion beside an urban farm.

Which Camperdown room for which birthday:

A 30th with a band: The Lady Hampshire's gig room has a large stage, a projector and sound, and the pub takes up to 250 across its courtyard, bars and lounges
No hire fee: the Camperdown Hotel's function room costs nothing to book, you set a bar tab to suit, and it fits 20 to 125 with a pool table
Under festoon lights: Courtyard Restaurant & Bar @ HostCo Sydney on Science Road holds 500 standing or 200 seated, from $105 per person
Farm-side and relaxed: on Mallett Street, The Pavilion @ Camperdown Commons takes 100 standing, and its party food package starts from $32 per person
A dressed-up dinner dance: Bligh AB @ Rydges Camperdown on Missenden Road seats 80 with a dance floor, from $2,000 minimum spend

Bligh AB is inside a hotel, so family flying in can stay on site, and there is free parking as well as paid.

Camperdown Commons hosts birthdays and anniversaries, and the Pavilion has heaters, ceiling fans and roll-down blinds to keep the weather out
The Lady Hampshire is dog-friendly, so the family dog can come along
