None of the 9 spaces in Cairns charge for a security guard, so that cost doesn't apply here. 8 of the 9 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.
1 of the 9 spaces in Cairns include a bonus bar tab when you enquire through Partystar. It's worth $100. 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. 4 of the 5 spaces that set a minimum spend have no hire charge at all. The 1 that do charge run from $200 to $1,500 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.
