I chose Pier01, in Ulverstone as the venue for my wedding reception held in Jan -‐ 2014. On the evening, the Pier01 staff provided exceptional customer service all supported by and contributed too by Ella and Mat. The quality of the food in our 3 course meal throughout the evening was superb -‐ there was not a complaint from myself or any of the 90+ guests who attended. The evening and food service ran perfectly to schedule, the room was setup and decorated perfectly by the Pier01 staff, contributed too by a stunning building and great river view. I cannot thank Ella and the Pier01 staff enough for providing a perfect dining and function experience for our wedding reception.

Pier01 hosted our wedding reception on the 4th of January, and my new husband and I would like to commend the wonderful staff and kitchen on making our evening enjoyable and relaxed. The food was incredible and the atmosphere that was created by the staff displaying true professionalism and coordinated by Ian and Ella Kent was fantastic. We would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a prefect reception or even just dinner.

Selecting your Function Space
Pier01 is ideally situated to host your event. The structure of our building allows for the function and other aspects of your celebration to all be held in separate and discreet locations. Pier01 is a Restaurant and Café situated in a large multipurpose building with sound resistant concertina walls that allow the building to be opened or divided to meet the diverse needs of event and event organisers. The Architectural drawings as seen below identify the scope of the available space and the diversity of space the management of Pier01 have at their disposal.
Leven River
River Room (Meeting Space) The River Room is designed specifically for meeting purposes, although its proximity to Pier01’s kitchen and bar allows the room to cater for hospitality events as well.
The River Room has electronic communication facilities including data projection to the largest screen available on the coast. Televisions are also installed in this room for further communication needs. The River Room can accommodate up to 50 guests (seated at round tables); 75 theatre style with lectern and stage and 120 cocktail party guests. The River Room can be extended into the adjacent foyer to increase guest numbers or this space can be made available for alternative and optional uses.

The Gnomon Pavilion (Multi Use Space)
The Gnomon Pavilion is an extensive space which makes it suitable for a variety of purposes including large meetings and conventions and a variety of social functions including weddings. The space is used by the Central Coast Council to present “Live on the Wharf” on Friday evenings and the performers have all commented positively with respect to the acoustics of the area. The Gnomon Pavilion can be separated from the Pier01 Restaurant/Café space by the River Room increasing the privacy of functions held within this space. The Gnomon Pavilion can be extended into the adjacent foyer to increase guest numbers (seated or theatre style) or this space can be made available for breakout or display space. Access can also be extended to the River Room if additional space is required. The Gnomon Pavilion can accommodate up to 80 guests (seated at round tables); 140 theatre style and up to 200 for cocktail parties.
The Foyer Space (Foyer) The Foyer Space is available for individual hire (for smaller functions) but the preference is to use either the River Room or Gnomon Pavilion with the Foyer to be provided as additional space.
Pier01 Restaurant and Café (Restaurant/Kitchen Space) The Pier01 Restaurant and Café space is available for exclusive hire and use of this facility will be negotiated independently with your Function Coordinator. Pier01 can seat up to 100 dinner guests with space to be increased if required by utilising the River Room and/all Foyer space.
Combination of Spaces Pier01 and adjacent rooms, when combined, can accommodate up to 400 guests seated for a function. Functions of this size require considerable work from the Pier01 team and will require extensive planning.
