Rooftop Dinner with a View
End Of Financial Year isn’t the time for generic restaurants and fluorescent lighting.
This is your chance to level up, literally.
Think rooftop bars with panoramic views, curated cocktails, and a sunset backdrop that does the talking.
In Sydney, you’re sipping spritzes in Barangaroo as the skyline turns gold.
In Melbourne, it’s riverfront dining just off Flinders Lane with the city humming below.
It’s premium without being pretentious, vibrant without being crowded.
We’ll secure the best rooftop spot for your team size and vibe.
No folding chairs, no function room energy, just a standout celebration with style.

Winery Escape & Cellar Door Tasting
WINERY ESCAPE & CELLAR DOOR TASTING
End Of Financial Year is the perfect excuse to leave the city behind for a day of good wine and even better company.
Head to the Tamborine Mountain, McLaren Vale, Margaret River or wherever the pinot is flowing.
We handle the transport, tastings, and timing; you bring the applause.
Private cellar door access, behind-the-scenes tours, and long lunches with your name on them. Think vineyard views, no emails, and a team that actually relaxes. This isn’t a staff outing, it’s a cultural reset. Perfect for reward, retention, and a well-earned reset. Cheers to that.
Small teams deserve big escapes.
High Energy Cooking Class Throwdown
High-Energy Cooking Class Throwdown
Trust falls are out. Pasta battles are in.
End Of Financial Year with a twist of competition and a splash of wine? Yes, please. This isn’t a basic class, it’s an interactive cook-off where your team brings the heat. Roll handmade dumplings in Sydney or craft gnocchi from scratch in Melbourne.
A private chef leads the chaos, and your team becomes culinary legends (or cautionary tales). Finish with shared plates, kitchen laughs, and bragging rights that last all year.
We’ll take care of the venue, ingredients, equipment, and wine.
You just show up and stir things up.
Perfect for teams who bond best with aprons and action.
Cooking class? More like cultural connection in disguise.
Sunset Cruise With A Twist
Sunset Cruise With A Twist
End Of Financial Year on the water? Now we’re talking.
Hire a private yacht, catamaran or river cruiser, your team deserves the top deck.
Think champagne toasts as the sun sets behind Brisbane’s Story Bridge.
Or a twilight sail around Sydney Harbour with the Opera House in the background.
Add live music, a grazing station, or even a cheeky gin tasting on board.
It’s effortless elegance with maximum impact.
Perfect for small teams who want big energy without the big crowd.
We tailor the cruise to your group size and vibe.
Just don’t forget your sunglasses.
End Of Financial Year doesn’t need four walls to make waves.

Escape rooms, augmented reality challenges, murder mysteries, you name it, we’ve curated it.

End Of Financial Year fun meets functional bonding, with a killer storyline.
Long Lunch In A Hidden Venue
Long Lunch In A Hidden Venue
Not every celebration needs glitter cannons and a DJ.
Sometimes, the power move is a long, luxurious lunch tucked away from the world.
Think a Melbourne laneway restaurant or a tucked-away spot in The Rocks.
Three courses, top-shelf wine, and a soundtrack that grows as the afternoon unfolds.
Perfect for teams who want connection over chaos.
No yelling across long tables, no sharing space with strangers.
Just sharp conversation, incredible food, and that golden “we made it” feeling.
End Of Financial Year doesn’t always shout, sometimes it whispers luxury.
Let’s book the spot your team won’t find on Google.

Creative Studio Experience with Drinks to Follow
End Of Financial Year isn’t just about rewards, it’s a chance to create something lasting.
Get your hands messy and your ideas flowing with a private creative workshop.
Think pottery and pinot, paint-and-sip that’s actually stylish, or neon sign-making that lights up your office. It’s immersive, personalised, and just the right level of playful.
Run by expert facilitators who guide the group (and keep the banter flowing).
Wrap it up with a cocktail session nearby, Fortitude Valley, Northbridge, or Fitzroy have plenty to offer.
It’s the kind of End Of Financial Year event that doesn’t feel like an “event.”
It feels like a story your team will tell all year.
Small team? Big spark.
