"It’s great to have the opportunity to learn something you might otherwise not learn at the office. It is really motivating!"
"After a ClassBento workshop you’ve built this great relationship and common ground with your colleagues, that makes everything easier when you are back in the office"
"The thing I find about workshops is that it's super meditative - you have to stop and focus on what you're doing; they make you stop thinking about everything else, relax and be in the moment"

Christmas Party Ideas and Activities Melbourne
Work Christmas party ideas in Melbourne for every team
When it comes to work Christmas party ideas in Melbourne, there’s something for every kind of team. For creative crews, wreath-making workshops in Prahran or flower arranging sessions in Malvern East are perfect for getting hands-on and into the festive spirit. If your colleagues love a good laugh, a cocktail making class in the CBD or a paint and sip session in Port Melbourne will set the tone for a relaxed and social celebration.
For a slower-paced team, pottery or clay hand-building in Brunswick offers a mindful way to unwind after a busy year. These workshops are designed to be inclusive and easy-going – no pressure, no awkward icebreakers, just genuine connection and fun.
One of our most popular team activities? Paint and Sip in the Dark, a glowing twist on the classic favourite. As Sophie M. shared:
“My team and I attended the neon glow in the dark paint and sip class this past weekend for a work Christmas party. We had an absolutely amazing time—it was a very unique and fun experience suitable for all. Highly recommend taking this class for some team building fun! Our teacher was very lovely and helpful, the event was very well organised and everything went perfectly!”
The best Christmas party ideas are the ones that bring everyone together, from the quiet creatives to the social butterflies. That’s why our Melbourne workshops cater to all kinds of teams, big or small. So whether you’re celebrating with your close-knit start-up or the whole company, you can create something memorable together and end the year on a high.
5 Christmas party ideas for adults that are easy to organise
Looking for the best Christmas party ideas for adults in Melbourne? You don’t need to spend hours planning or booking, just pick an experience and let our talented local hosts handle the rest. These workshops are easy to organise, fun for everyone, and guaranteed to bring on the festive cheer.
- Cocktail making in South Yarra – Learn to mix, shake and garnish your own cocktails (or mocktails!) with a local mixologist.
- Gnocchi making and lunch in Elsternwick – Roll, shape and cook your own gnocchi before sitting down together to enjoy a delicious shared lunch. A hands-on foodie experience that’s perfect for bonding with friends or colleagues.
- Christmas wreath making that comes to you – Get creative with native blooms and festive foliage to craft a one-of-a-kind decoration.
- Paint and sip in Kew – Unwind with a glass of wine and a paintbrush as you bring your masterpiece to life.
- Pottery wheel throwing in Burwood – Try your hand at clay art for a fun, hands-on experience that everyone can enjoy.
One of our recent guests, Stacey B., summed it up perfectly after a staff Christmas party:
“Booked for a staff Christmas party and we all loved it! Went so smoothly, staff were very helpful and accommodating and the gnocchi was excellent!”
The best part? Everything’s taken care of – from the materials to the venue setup – so all you have to do is show up and have a good time. These fun Christmas party ideas suit groups of all sizes, whether you’re celebrating with a few friends or the entire office. With so many creative spaces dotted across Melbourne’s suburbs, it’s easy to find a workshop that fits your vibe, budget and team dynamic.
Top-rated Christmas party activities for any event
From big corporate gatherings to intimate end-of-year catch-ups, our top-rated Christmas party activities in Melbourne make it easy to celebrate in style. Melbourne’s thriving arts and foodie scene means there’s no shortage of ideas for unique events – think baking and dessert classes in St Kilda, floral workshops in Fitzroy, or cocktail sessions in the CBD.
If you’re after work party ideas that go beyond the standard restaurant lunch, these creative workshops offer something different. You’ll learn new skills, connect with your team and create keepsakes to take home – all in a relaxed, festive setting. And because they’re beginner-friendly, everyone can get involved and feel part of the fun.
These experiences also double as the best Christmas party ideas for birthdays, friend groups and social clubs looking to end the year with a smile. Whether you’re booking a private class for your team or joining a public session, our local hosts are here to make it special, with expert guidance, great energy and plenty of Christmas spirit.
Fun Christmas party ideas for the whole family
The holiday season is all about spending time together, and our Christmas party ideas in Melbourne are perfect for bringing the family together, no matter the age group. Kids can get creative at cookie decorating or cupcake baking classes, while adults join in on wreath-making or soy candle workshops. These hands-on experiences are great for creating something beautiful, sharing stories and making festive memories that will last for years.
If you’re planning a family Christmas day or school holiday activity, try one of our baking or flower arrangement classes in Collingwood or Malvern East. You’ll have a chance to switch off screens, enjoy quality time and leave with something special for your home. From grandparents to little ones, these activities make it easy for everyone to join in the joy of making.
Outdoor Xmas party ideas to try in 2025
With Melbourne’s parks, gardens and waterfront spots setting the scene, there’s no shortage of outdoor Christmas party ideas to enjoy in 2025. Try a painting class under the trees at the Royal Botanic Gardens, a photography workshop at Albert Park or a picnic-style wreath-making session by the Yarra River. These outdoor work party ideas are perfect for soaking up the sunshine and celebrating in true Melbourne style.
If you’re after something active, a dumpling walking food tour near Southbank or a street art class in Collingwood will let you see the city from a fresh perspective. Or, keep things chilled with a paint and sip garden party – a creative twist on the classic summer catch-up. However you choose to celebrate, these fun Christmas party activities in Melbourne make it easy to laugh, connect and make this festive season one to remember.
