About this space
Celebrate in Secluded Charm – The Picnic & BBQ Gardens
Tucked away within the lush surrounds of the Maritime Museum complex, the Picnic & BBQ Gardens offer a peaceful, semi-private retreat perfect for relaxed yet memorable gatherings. Surrounded by native Australian plants and mature trees, this versatile garden space combines natural beauty with a sense of quiet seclusion — just steps from the heart of history.
With dedicated BBQ facilities, picnic tables, and generous lawn areas, it's an ideal setting for family celebrations, birthday parties, community picnics, and casual corporate events. But it's also a hidden gem for intimate garden weddings, offering couples a charming, informal space to exchange vows or host a relaxed outdoor reception among nature.
Whether you're celebrating love, friendship, or simply life itself, the Picnic & BBQ Gardens provide a laid-back, picturesque environment — with the added privacy to make your occasion feel truly personal and special.
Whether you’re planning a wedding, a celebration of life, a corporate event, or a private gathering, the Maritime Museum Lawns provide a peaceful, sophisticated setting that your guests won’t soon forget.
