Festival Function Centre

Festival Function Centre is an award-winning reception venue just 10 minutes from Adelaide City Centre. It’s a picturesque function centre where you can say ‘I Do’, dine and dance the night away all under one roof. The wedding venue has a warm and friendly atmosphere that welcomes guests from the moment they walk in. The smart waiters and expert wedding coordinator will make a seamless experience for everyone invited. 

With a capacity from between 10 and 1500 guests, you can host a seated banquet, a standing cocktail reception or a combination of the two. There is plenty of space to decorate and personalise every corner of the venue. The Festival Function Centre includes four great wedding spaces, each fitted with state-of-the-art technology and LED mood lighting. 

The Festival Function Centre has 60 years of invaluable experience when it comes to creating your dream wedding event. The venue features 200 free car parking spaces for guests, a fully stocked bar, and a late licence until midnight, with a potential for an afterparty in the cellar downstairs.

Top three things you’ll love about your Festival Function Centre wedding:

• The Ballroom. You can achieve your fairytale vision at the Festival Function Centre. The ballroom has a bar, crystal chandeliers and lavish drapes hanging from the ceiling. 
• Experienced Team. The Festival Function Centre has been hosting successful weddings and events for years. With their expertise, your day will run without a hitch.  
• The Location. The Festival Function Centre feels far enough out of the city centre to allow privacy and extra space for parking, yet it’s only a 10-minute drive from the CBD. 

Choose from three ceremony and reception options at the Festival Function Centre:

• Ballroom. A classical, neutral ballroom where you can bring your personal touches. Crystal chandeliers and flowing drapes suspend from the ceiling, and it has a private foyer with a built-in bar for pre-dinner drinks and music. (200-600 banquet, 800 standing)

• Classic Room. Similar to the ballroom, the classic room features ceiling drapes, chandeliers and a marble foyer. Couples love the striking mirror panelling,  the dancefloor and stage area. The options are endless here. (80-200 banquet, 350 standing)
• Sun Room. An elegant entertainment space that’s perfect for midsized parties and wedding prep if you’re using the other rooms for the reception. It’s fitted with air conditioning, a marble bar and ambient mood lighting. (30-70 banquet, 100 standing)
• Cellar. The Festival Function Centre has a hidden secret — the cellar is an excellent party venue where you can set up a dancefloor and boogie all night long. Once the banquet has finished upstairs in the ballroom, this is the place to be. (40 standing)
