Christmas Party Venues in Monbulk

What to Know Before Booking Christmas Party Venues

For an end-of-year gathering in the Dandenong Ranges, Yarra Ranges Estate in Monbulk runs Christmas lunches and cocktail parties. The family-owned winery overlooks its own vineyard, with hills reaching towards the Yarra Valley.

Its reception room seats up to 150, enough for a whole-office break-up or a large family Christmas. Quotes depend on the menu and headcount, which the estate works out with each organiser.

Ways to run a Christmas function here:

A seated Christmas lunch in the reception room, its big windows facing the vines
An end-of-year cocktail party, with the separate dance floor area saved for a band or DJ later on
Antipasto platters for a relaxed team catch-up, or up to five courses for a formal sit-down
Drink packages built around the estate's own wines
Gala dinners and corporate events for businesses wanting a more formal close to the year

Indoor and outdoor spaces are both listed, so a warm afternoon can start outside before the meal
The estate describes its feel as relaxed, which suits a long lunch more than a black-tie night
In-house chefs cater for vegan, gluten-free and other diets when given notice
Events finish by 11pm, a firm end point for organising the trip home
