Your work Christmas party just got a lot more interesting

Nobody wants to be the one who booked another forgettable function room for the office Christmas party. This year, skip the sad platters and beige carpet, bring your people to Messinaville instead.

We've made booking Messinaville for your end-of-year event dead simple, with two ways to do it depending on the kind of night you're after.

Whole Restaurant Hire, for when you want the whole place to yourselves

This is the full takeover. We close the doors to everyone else, and for the night, Erin is yours. Smaller groups get a proper set menu for up to 22 guests and if your Christmas party has grown into a whole-office affair, we've got a sharing set menu built for groups of 23 to 30. We can also add a short factory tour on if you would like the full Messinaville experience.

Minimum spend starts at $3,500 on Thursdays and $4,000 on Fridays and Saturdays, with bookings open now for events Thursday through Saturday.

Private Tour with Dinner At Erin, for the smaller crew who wants a bit of theatre

If your group's on the smaller side, or you just want something a bit more experiential than sitting down to a meal, this one starts with a 30-minute private tour through Messinaville, before you head to Erin for a six-course set menu dinner.

It's $139 per person, best suited for groups of up to 10. Availability starts from 5pm, so grab a spot before the good nights fill up.

Whichever one you go with, you're guaranteed the thing every other Christmas party is missing: genuinely great gelato and a story to tell on Monday.
