Gather your family and friends for our annual Christmas Day Buffet Lunch, where incredible food, flowing drinks and festive entertainment come together for a memorable celebration in the heart of South Bank. Our Christmas Day Buffet Lunch offers the perfect family Christmas celebration – without the fuss!
Begin your celebration with welcome drinks in the lobby before making your way into Bacchus and Podium for an abundant Christmas buffet. Discover a generous selection of fresh seafood, premium charcuterie and cheeses, festive roasts, seasonal salads, hot dishes and decadent desserts, alongside a dedicated kids’ buffet.
Highlights include Sydney Rock oysters, Mooloolaba King prawns, Moreton Bay bug tails and Tasmanian smoked salmon, followed by rum and pineapple glazed ham, stuffed turkey roulade, slow-braised pork shoulder and roasted Black Angus beef. Save room for the festive dessert bar, ice cream and sorbet station, live paella station, and freshly brewed coffee and affogato from our barista cart.
Choose between our Deluxe or Premium Adult Beverage Packages, with cocktails, sparkling, wine, beer and non-alcoholic options available throughout the celebration.
There is plenty of Christmas magic for our younger guests too, with a Kids Activity Zone, face painting, festive DIY activities and a special visit from Santa. Teen, child and infant ticket holders will also receive a Christmas gift from Santa.
