About The Ridge

The Ridge is the events and wedding side of Toowoomba Golf Club on Rowbotham Street at Middle Ridge, a few minutes from the city centre. The clubhouse looks over an 18-hole parkland course set in about 64 hectares of landscaped grounds. The main party space is the Alfresco Deck, which runs off the clubhouse under a canopy of fairy lights and faces the greens and a large camphor laurel. It seats up to 120 guests or works as a stand-up cocktail space, and is set with high tables, wine barrels and timber-top tables for 40. Inside, the Diamond Room is a formal room with its own bar and restrooms, seating 120 or holding 200 theatre style. There is also a boardroom for 10 to 12, and ceremonies can be held on the lawns or under the big tree. Catering is done on site. Packages run from five-choice canapés and BBQ, roast or hot-dish buffets to alternate-drop and banquet mains, with entrées, desserts, platters and morning teas, and the team works around dietary needs. Room hire for the deck or the Diamond Room covers five hours with a projector and screen, PA, microphones, music, and set-up and pack-down. You choose a bar tab limit and staff keep you updated as it is spent. In-house coordinators plan weddings, engagements, milestone birthdays, end-of-year celebrations, wakes and corporate training or team-building days.

Great venue. We were out on the verandah. It has clear plastic blinds and heaters for when the weather goes bad. A good range of hot finger food was served.
