Who to Book for a Reunion

Getting a Wollongong Reunion Organised

Reunions bring together people who once saw each other every day and now arrive from different lives, sometimes with partners and children in tow. The room has to work for a seventy-year-old and a seven-year-old, let people move between tables, and leave space for someone to stand up and read out names.

In Kiama, The Auditorium @ Kiama Leagues Club suits class and family reunions that need a proper room: it seats 180 at long tables, has its own bar, stage and dance floor, and serves shared platters from $25 per person. For a smaller group, North Beach Pavilion in North Wollongong hosts share-style feasts for 10 to 48 in the heritage bathers pavilion right on the beach, from $65 per person.

Plenty of reunions are better built around an afternoon outdoors than a formal dinner:

  • Gerringong Bowlo: barefoot bowls beside Werri Beach from $15 per person, then the bistro
  • Timezone & Zone Bowling Illawarra: tenpin lanes, laser tag and party rooms in Albion Park
  • Otford Farm: guided trail rides for adults and led pony rides for children aged 8 and under
  • The Auditorium @ Kiama Leagues Club: a stage for a slideshow and speeches after the meal

A family reunion might start with a ride at Otford Farm in the morning and finish over platters in Kiama; a school year group might prefer bowls followed by drinks. For a larger crowd, browse Wollongong function venues or book lawn bowls for the afternoon.

Planning across generations
