Security guard charges apply at some venues here and are shown on each listing. 5 of the 10 will let you meet the minimum spend with a beverage package. Every one of them accepts a bar tab. Costs outside the venue quote usually include DJ hire, entertainment, specialised catering and decorations.
2 of the 10 spaces in Ballarat include a bonus bar tab when you enquire through Partystar. That's 1 at $100 and 1 at $50. The venue adds it to your bar on the night once you meet its stated requirement, which is either the hire charge, the minimum spend or the minimum guest numbers. See how the bonus bar tab works for the full detail.
Mostly not. 6 of the 9 spaces that set a minimum spend have no hire charge at all. The 3 that do charge run from $150 to $250 for a Saturday.
Food, drinks or both, depending on the venue. At a lot of venues drinks alone will cover it, and the venue's own listing says which applies. See how minimum spend works.
