Christmas Party Venues in Elanora Heights

What to Know Before Booking Christmas Party Venues

A Northern Beaches team that would rather stay local for its Christmas party can take over The Racquet Club, the sports bar inside the Elanora squash centre on Kalang Road.

It suits a relaxed end-of-year, with a timber deck under outdoor heaters, lounge seating and high tables, a view towards the ocean and two big screens inside for sport.

How a work Christmas can run here:

A smaller team: a private corner of the bar, screened by barriers, with dedicated table service
The whole business: Saturday night exclusive use, from $2,500 minimum spend on food and bar
Something to do: darts, table tennis or a mechanical bull can be added
Music: book live musicians or a DJ, and the bar has space for either
Staff families: children can join supervised squash and multisport on the courts next door

On top of the minimum spend come a booking fee and GST, and a 20% non-refundable deposit locks in a December Saturday.

Canapés from the onsite chef come hot or cold, sweet or savoury
Gourmet pizzas keep the per-head cost down for a casual team
Food must be served during every private function, with dietary needs catered for
The bar pours beers, wines, spirits, cocktails and alcohol-free options on a tab or pay-as-you-go

Festive touches at the squash centre

Balloon arches, banners and photo walls can be set up by the team
Special lighting helps turn a sports bar into a party space after dark
A lolly bar is one of the decoration extras on offer
Ample parking at the centre suits staff driving in from around the Northern Beaches
