Your party at my place · Katoomba
Have your Christmas party On The Soul Side
No stiff function room. Your party happens inside our quirky music venue and bar with a live stage, plus an outdoor terrace under the fairy lights (weather permitting), at On The Soul Side Cafe, in the Gearin Hotel. Live local music if you want it, a DJ if you'd rather dance, good food and local drinks. You bring the people, we'll look after the rest.
