We celebrated our daughter's Christening at the Pavilion, and it was so beautiful. Our guests couldn't stop talking about the venue, the food, the service. The park was a huge hit with the kids. Natalie was a dream to work with.

Outdoor EventFAQs
The questions we get asked most about hosting a outdoor event at The Orchard.
What happens if it rains?
A covered space (Pavilion, Stables or Woolshed) is held for every outdoor booking and confirmed with your run sheet.
Is there shade?
The Alfresco is covered by vines and shade sails; the Orchard side is the shadiest.
Can we have music outdoors?
Acoustic and background music until 10pm; amplified performances move indoors.
How many guests fit outdoors?
The full Alfresco hosts 200; the lawns extend that for standing events.
Why The Orchard
Celebrate your outdoor eventat The Orchard
Outdoor events at The Orchard happen on the Alfresco, a vine-covered riverside terrace with the Nepean on one side and the citrus orchard on the other, and on the lawns beside it. Long tables, festoon lights and a bar in the open air.
Every outdoor booking includes a covered fallback space confirmed the week before, so the weather is never a reason to cancel. Outdoor events finish at 10pm.
