Calling all event organisers, now's the time to start brainstorming your Christmas party ideas in Brisbane! And if you’re looking for a wholesome time to get into the festive mood, there's nothing like spending quality time with loved ones during the holiday season.
To spark your inspiration and help you plan the best Christmas party Brisbane's ever seen, here are five of our top picks!
1. Add more memories (and decorations) to the Christmas tree
A Christmas tree holds a thousand memories for most Australian families. Many of us collect Christmas baubles and pretty decorations each year. Whether we’ve bought them ourselves, we’ve received them as gifts, or the kids made some at school, a little story comes with each one. This year, add more memories to your tree with macrame DIY Christmas decorations in Griffin. Gather your nearest and dearest and head to this Griffin workshop for a wholesome and crafty Christmas celebration.
“What an enjoyable morning. Great instruction, friendly and patient. Came home with some very usable craft ready for hanging in the tree.” - Sharron P.
These Christmas tree decorations will always remind you of an afternoon well spent with your loved ones, listening to carols, sharing some laughs and creating macrame angels to use year after year.
2. Make your own DIY Christmas wreath
Learning how to make a Christmas wreath is one of the most popular Xmas party ideas in Brisbane, and there are plenty of options to choose from. Whether you go with a dried floral wreath, one made of succulents, or a completely fresh arrangement, you and your group will undoubtedly zone into holiday mode after a wreath-making workshop.
Take time from your busy schedule and gather your favourite people to learn from a local florist, creating something to hang on your door or in the living room. Not only will you walk away with a gorgeous decorative wreath, but you’ll also get to spend quality time with your people as you play with nature—two things that make for perfectly wholesome holiday moments. If you organise this Christmas wreath workshop in Brisbane for your next holiday event, you may just experience feelings of joy, satisfaction and relaxation:
“Our group of six attended Helena’s Christmas wreath class and absolutely loved it. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and Helena was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and generous with her guidance. The selection of foliage and florals was beautiful, and each of us left with a stunning wreath we’re so proud to display. It was a relaxed, enjoyable experience from start to finish!” - Clare R.
3. Create floral masterpieces to liven up Christmas lunch
Still interested in playing with flowers and creating an unforgettable vibe this Christmas?

For many, the Christmas table holds so much significance as the gathering place for Christmas lunch, so if you want it to be extra special this year, gather your girls and learn from the best! Here, you’ll be supporting a local business as the friendly team walks you through creating three impactful Christmas floral pieces, including a Christmas table arrangement, a festive vase display and a door wreath. You and the group will walk away with newfound confidence and the best Christmas decorations—making this year merrier than ever.

5. Hand-write personal place cards for the Christmas table
Everyone loves a sentimental Christmas card, so why not take things one step further and add DIY notes and place cards to your Christmas decor? Get together with your fellow Christmas-lovers and find a calligraphy or brush lettering class, so you can all equip yourselves with the skills and knowledge to make beautifully handwritten cards to surprise and delight your loved ones over the holidays. Plus, it's a nice thing to focus on when you need to relax and unwind.
Alternatively, if you want to take your Christmas cards up a notch, you can head to this Christmas letterpress workshop in South Brisbane where everyone will learn a new skill and walk away with professional (and very impressive) cards to hand out this season.
“This was a super fun class. It was so interesting to learn about printing and use the immaculately maintained equipment. Roberto was so patient with us and welcomed all of our creative visions! Would recommend this for groups who want to try something new and take home valuable items where the gift just keeps on giving!” - Emily C.
With these craft ideas, we have an inkling that your wholesome celebrations will get you right into the holiday mood, whether you’re learning how to make a Christmas wreath, weaving macrame decorations, or printing polished Xmas cards. Have a very merry Christmas!
