4 party ideas with a twist.
If you’re the (un)official event planner for your group of mates, you’ve probably spent hours searching for the next fun thing to do. We’ve given you a helping hand and rounded up five unique things to do in Wollongong CBD that will make your next birthday, hen’s night, buck’s night or even work function a whole lot more entertaining.
1. Breakout Bar + Escape Rooms
Breakout Bar & Escape Rooms is a completely unique adventure. In just one evening you can immerse yourself in an escape room, indulge in a creative cocktail in the steam-punk inspired bar, and belt out a tune in a private karaoke room.
Ready to escape? Book in a group of 2 - 8 people, and take your choice of five themed escape rooms from the brain-teasing Da Vinci room, to the very spooky Asylum.
Once you’re done, treat yo’self with a creative cocktail from the bar, and a wood-fired pizza from Kneading Ruby!
2. The Sip Studio
What do you get when you mix wine, art, and a group of friends or workmates? A whole lot of laughs and a fun night out at The Sip Studio.
With a glass of your favourite BYO beverage in one hand and a paint brush in the other you'll be guided to recreate a painting. All materials are provided so that you can head home with your very own masterpiece.
You can BYO nibbles too, or for group bookings, arrange a catered grazing table.
3. B. Lucky & Sons
Pssst… just between the two of us, games aren’t just for kids! If you’re feeling lucky, (or just looking for a really cute cocktail) bring your mates to B. Lucky & Sons arcade and bar.
B. Lucky is an indulgent hidden den of a cocktail bar packed with both retro and modern arcade games that you’ll be itching to play. Immerse yourself in the clever décor, race your mates in classic Mario Kart or Daytona, and earn points towards goodies from the Pawn Shop.
When you’re all gamed out, there’s a tasty menu of bar food faves like toasties, pizzas and even donut ice cream sandwiches!
Large group or work party? Check out the all-inclusive function packages starting from just $39 a head.
