Memorial Service Venue Brisbane

Factory 51 offers a warm, private space for memorial services and celebrations of life in Coorparoo, 12 minutes from Brisbane’s CBD. The venue is discreet, staffed by people who understand the weight of the occasion, and able to accommodate gatherings from 10 through to 180 guests.

THE VENUE

A Private, Considered Space

The Workshop at Factory51 provides a warm and private setting for memorial services, wakes and celebrations of life. The room is accessed via a private laneway, entirely exclusive to your gathering, and staffed by a team that handles these occasions with care and discretion. The space can be configured for a seated gathering around long timber tables, a cocktail-style reception with high bars and lounge seating, or a combination of both. AV equipment — projector, screen and microphone — is available for tributes, photo slideshows and speakers.

THE CATERING

Warm, generous food prepared with care.

At Factory51 we understand that catering for a memorial reception means more than just food. The menu is designed to be comforting, generous and unpretentious — shared antipasti boards, feasting plates, canapé service or a seated shared meal. The kitchen caters for dietary requirements and works with you quietly in the background.
