The Magnetic Room at Picnic Bay Hotel - party venue in Townsville

The Magnetic Room @ Picnic Bay Hotel (Picnic Bay)5.0 (3)

Celebrate your birthday at The Magnetic Room at Picnic Bay Hotel, a sea-view function room on the Picnic Bay foreshore of Magnetic Island.

Choosing the Right Birthday Party Venue

Of the island's bays, Picnic Bay on the southern side is where a birthday gets a private function room to work with: The Magnetic Room @ Picnic Bay Hotel, on the Esplanade. The hotel dates back to 1899 and runs a public bar, a bistro and boutique rooms alongside the function space.

For an island birthday the harder planning question is usually the guests rather than the room: who is crossing on the ferry, and who is staying the night.

What the Magnetic Room offers a birthday host in Picnic Bay:

A function space with a long bar of its own, separate from the hotel's public bar and bistro.
Two ways to run the night: round tables for a seated dinner, or an open floor for drinks and canapés.
Catering through the hotel, which can be combined with rooms for guests in a tailored package.
Outlooks to the water from a bright, coastal room on the Picnic Bay foreshore.
On-site AV, handy for a slideshow of old photos or speeches on a screen.

Big birthdays sit on the hotel's list of events for the room, alongside engagements and family reunions.

Guests cross on the ferry to the Nelly Bay terminal, and the hotel runs a free transfer from there to Picnic Bay for its staying guests.
Mainland guests who aren't staying need their own plan for the trip back, so check the last ferry before you set a finishing time.
Rooms at the hotel are optional for an event in the Magnetic Room, but they solve the late return for anyone happy to stay.
For party guests not booked into rooms, ask the hotel whether a transfer from the ferry can be arranged too.

What to ask the Picnic Bay Hotel functions team

The room's seated and standing limits for your format, since the listing doesn't state a capacity.
What a birthday package includes for food and drinks, and whether a bar tab or cash bar is available.
Whether you can bring a cake, decorations or a DJ, and what time music has to finish.
Current pricing, as the listing doesn't publish a starting figure.
