Welcome to Staff Christmas Party F.A.Q.

Frequently Asked Questions

I'm interested in booking a party shown on your website.  What is my next step?

Call one of our party advisors on 02 9904 0495 and we can check availability for you, answer any questions you may have and make the booking if you decide to go ahead.  Also, if you can't find exactly what you are looking for we are happy to discuss your requirements.

 What is a shared party?

Shared parties are large and often spectacular parties to which you can buy tickets. For companies of any size, joining a shared Christmas party can be a great option.  If you are a smaller company, this allows you to book seats at a full scale Christmas party, allowing you to benefit from the fun atmosphere and entertainment of a big event - and even meet new people.  They will also include the catering, usually a sit down meal, entertainment, a DJ to provide the essential music, and full event management. 

What are minimum/maximum booking numbers for shared parties?

This depends on the event. Most shared parties have no minimum.

Maximum numbers will depend on the size of the venue. 

Will we have to share tables with other parties?

Usually not.  We will always try to seat you together but if, for example, you were a party of 35 and the seating arrangements called for tables of 10, it is likely that 5 of you will share a table with another party of people.  Some venues are flexible and often if, for example, there were 38 of you, it is likely that a table of 8 will be fine.  This cannot be guaranteed however.

What is an exclusive party?

An exclusive party is an event booked exclusively for your company.  It can either be an organised party package or we can create a bespoke party for you. For companies looking to hold a private Christmas party, there are many venues and party packages available. Each of the parties shown in all our locations will state whether they are available for shared or exclusive parties.

If you would like to create a Christmas party; we are here to help you with the entire process, from the initial concept through to the management of the event itself, allowing you to sit back and relax on the evening.  We can work with you on venue selection, party themes, entertainment, catering, music, hotel accommodation and much more. 

There are, of course, many more venues available throughout Australia, so if you can’t find what you are looking for we will help you locate it. Call us today to start planning your exclusive company Christmas party

How many people do we need for an exclusive party? 

If you are looking for an organised party package the minimum number of guests will depend on the venue.  If you are looking for a exclusive Christmas party, there is no minimum as they can range from an intimate evening in a restaurant to a large event in a huge venue or marquee.

Do I need to know exact numbers when I book? 

It helps if you have a good idea as you will be charged a deposit per head at the time of booking, but final guest numbers need to be confirmed at least 4 weeks prior to the event.  You will be informed at the time of booking if this is any different, as some party venues require numbers earlier.

Do I need to pay a deposit? 

At the time of booking you will need to pay a deposit which is non-refundable.  This will usually be charged at $20 per head, but this may be slightly less depending on the party.  You will be advised at the time of booking. 

How far in advance is full payment required?

You will be asked to pay a deposit within 1 week of the booking and full payment is required 4 weeks prior to the event date.  For shared parties, early payment can often ensure seats in the best positions.

If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to give us a call on 02 9904 0495.
