Lakeside Pavilion Events
Located just 10 minutes from the Melbourne CBD, Lakeside Pavilion at Albert Park Lake is a highly sought-after destination for weddings and social and corporate events. From the dramatic arch windows, you have unparalleled views of the sparkling lake. When you step out onto the covered balcony, you’ll experience the fresh air and unmatched views out over the gardens with the city horizon in the distance.
Lakeside Pavilion is the perfect location for events with guest lists between 50 to 500 guests; flexible room arrangements and adjustable walls create numerous configuration options. Whether you’re hosting a work function, a celebratory gala, or a special occasion, you’ll have access to state-of-the-art AV facilities, as well as high-end lounge and dining furniture and centrepieces.
Inside you’ll find high ceilings with exposed rafters, floor-to-ceiling windows, and breathtaking chandeliers that evoke a sense of sophistication. Effortlessly blending New York-chic brick and subway tiles with elegant lighting and decor, events held at Lakeside Pavilion can range in tone and theme.
Lakeside Pavilion offers packages based on minimum food and beverage spend. There is a range of catering packages to suit every budget and taste. The Conference Package accommodates working events, kicking off with breakfast and morning tea, and moving into fresh sandwiches and salads for lunch and afternoon tea. Consider the Canapes and Feeling Hungry Menus and Beverage Packages to accompany the meals for events that revolve less around spreadsheets and vertical integration and more around festive gathering.

Venue Testimonials
The staff were amazing! Super easy to organise and the venue exceeded my expectations.
Ashlea S
We had a reasonably large wedding (250 people) and had both our ceremony and reception at Lakeside Pavilion. The venue is beautiful and modern, and the backdrop of Albert Park Lake made for some incredibly special photos. The staff were organised, friendly, and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a larger-sized wedding venue!

Lakeside Pavilion was an absolutely beautiful venue to hold our wedding. They were quite accommodating with all of our changes of mind throughout the planning process, and delivered everything we were looking for. All of our guests commented on how beautiful the space was...
