IMPORTANT ADELAIDE FUNCTION VENUE UPDATE 2nd October 2020
DANCING FOR JOY!
What a huge relief this is for Adelaide function venues and customers planning events! From Saturday 3rd October the following restrictions were eased:
“Standing consumption of food and drink will be able to resume outdoors at licensed venues.
Private functions at licensed venues, including weddings, with a maximum of 150 guests will also be able to have standing consumption and dancing indoors or outdoors. These functions must have a defined guest list and COVID Marshals.”

This is just such great news! Private functions can return to normal cocktail style functions… and guests can dance!!!
There are still some additional restrictions in place to be aware of:
– While there is no limit to the number of guests allowed at a private function (except in the case of weddings and funerals, see below), it is worth noting that the above restriction ease to allow standing consumption of food and drinks and dancing only applies to private functions up to 150 guests.
– Specifically for weddings and funerals (including wakes), there is a maximum limit of 150 people. This limit doesn’t currently apply to other types of functions such as birthdays or corporate events. Only room density requirements would apply in this case.
– Density requirements of 1 person per 2 square meters still applies, with no cap on the number of people per room.
– Guests must be seated when consuming food and beverage at a restaurant/cafe/bar/hotel etc. (unless dining/drinking outdoors, or if attending a private function).
There are strict still rules regarding the service of cocktail style finger food. Here’s what the Government Document says: FAQ Government doc (Step-3 05.08.2020 LINK HERE)
Can I open the buffet bar / salad bar?
No. Communal food service areas are not permitted to be opened, including buffet and salad bars. This includes both self-service and/or staff serving food.
Can I serve share plates (e.g. tapas, pizza, bread) at tables?
You can serve share plates to a table if it is to be shared amongst people who are seated as part of the same group.
Can I serve platters/boards?
As above, you can serve shared platters/boards to a table if it is to be shared amongst people who are seated as part of the same group. For example, you cannot have a platter available for all guests attending an event, but you can have a platter available for people seated at a table together that are part of the same group.
Can I hold a cocktail function?
No, this is considered similar to providing communal food from a service area, however cocktail style food can be served to a table if it is to be shared amongst people who are seated as part of the same group.
(It can also be served individually plated. Which means for private functions where guests are now allowed to stand, individually plated finger food items can be handed to guests. They cannot help themselves to a platter of finger food options, the staff need to hand the plate to the customer)
Are the rules different for private functions?
No, the above rules apply for private functions at licensed premises or other public venues (e.g. weddings, funerals, birthdays, other ceremonies).
If you are making your enquiry to an Adelaide function venue via Event Scene, you might find that the venue response time is still a little slower than normal as some venues have only re-opened part time. Please be patient.
Thank you for your continued support during this time for my business Event Scene and the Adelaide restaurants and function venues I work with!
Much Love,

The possibilities are endless for different function rooms in Adelaide for all types of events: special birthday party venues in Adelaide, cocktail party venues, formal private dining rooms, conference venues, meeting room hire, and of course unique wedding venues in Adelaide!
