Guests can choose from a range of settings across the hotel to suit groups of any size, with the events team on hand to tailor catering, styling and format, from seated dinners and buffets to cocktail-style celebrations, to suit the occasion, whether it’s an intimate team celebration or a large-scale end-of-year party. Every festive booking includes Christmas decor and bonbons.
“The end of the year is one of our busiest and most joyful periods, and we love helping teams and friends celebrate in style,” said Julie Avotins, Director of Catering & Events at The Langham, Melbourne. “Whether it’s a small team dinner or a large-scale celebration, our spaces – and now Melba – give guests real flexibility to create the event they want.”
