Healesville Sanctuary

About the venue

Secluded in Melbourne’s Yarra Valley, Healesville Sanctuary is the quintessential Australian flora and fauna experience, just 65 kilometres from Melbourne.

Function room and outdoor settings encourage event organisers to embrace and utilise all elements of the Sanctuary for a total native experience. Our menus are designed specifically for Healesville Sanctuary. Our Executive Chef and Special Event Chef relish the opportunity to create exclusive menus to meet your individual event and function needs. For a wild encounter with Australia’s unique wildlife, from the small and timid to the fierce and predatory, there are over 200 species of Australian wildlife to discover here. Combine your event with a Meet the Keeper or Animal Close Up experience or a visit to the Australian Wildlife Health Centre.
