Who to Book for a Reunion

Getting a Townsville Reunion Organised

Reunions here have a particular flavour: school year groups, university classmates and defence units who were posted to the city and moved on. A get-together across Cleveland Bay turns the trip itself into part of the occasion.

On this page you will find a hotel right on the sand at Picnic Bay, Magnetic Island, with a private room that hosts reunions and work retreats.

Shaping a reunion on Maggie:

Day trip or stay over: guests can catch the ferry over for lunch, or book rooms on the island and make a weekend of it.
The last ferry back: plan the end of the formal part of the day around it, and tell guests the time well in advance.
Indoor and water views: a function room with a TV for slideshows and photos suits speeches and a look back at old photos.
Extra activities: island 4WD tours, snorkelling and boat trips give early arrivals something to do before the gathering.

If the group would rather stay on the mainland, browse venues in the CBD and along The Strand, and see boats for a sail on the bay.

Start the contact list early through school, university or unit networks, and set a clear RSVP date.
Ask guests whether they are staying overnight so you can plan numbers for dinner and transport.
Collect old photos for a slideshow on the room's screen.

Ferry and accommodation planning

Share the ferry terminal location and the planned crossing in the invitation.
Hold a block of rooms on the island for guests who want to stay over.
Arrange a minibus or coach on the island to take guests from the ferry to the venue and back.

Weather and the season

The dry season from May to October is the easy time for an island event, with warm, sunny days.
From December to April, storms can disrupt ferry crossings, so ask the venue about its rebooking terms.
Plan a mainland fallback date or room in case the crossing is called off.

What People Ask About Reunion Parties

Can I hold a reunion on Magnetic Island?

Yes. A beachfront hotel at Picnic Bay has a function room set up for reunions, with water views and a screen for photos.

How do guests get to a reunion at Picnic Bay?

By passenger ferry across Cleveland Bay to Nelly Bay, then a minibus or coach on the island. Plan the day around the last ferry back.

Should reunion guests stay overnight on the island?

It makes for a relaxed event, especially for guests travelling in. Hold rooms early and tell guests the options.

What suits a defence unit or school year reunion?

A private function room with a screen for a slideshow, a sit-down meal and time for catching up, plus optional island activities for early arrivals.

What happens if the weather disrupts the ferry?

Ask the venue about its storm plan and rebooking terms, especially for wet-season dates.
