End-of-Year Dinner for Your Medical Team or Private Practice in Brisbane

by | Jul 31, 2025 | News

After a long year of caring for patients, managing rosters, and handling the constant demands of healthcare, your team deserves more than a pat on the back. They deserve a thoughtful end-of-year dinner that recognises their efforts, strengthens relationships, and gives everyone space to unwind.

If you’re looking to host an end-of-year dinner for your medical team in Brisbane, Factory51 offers the perfect setting—professional, warm, and flexible to suit your practice’s needs.


Why Host an End-of-Year Celebration?

Healthcare professionals are often under immense pressure. Between back-to-back appointments, emergency call-ins, and ongoing system changes, it’s easy to forget to stop and reflect.

An end-of-year dinner creates a moment to:

  • Celebrate team milestones and achievements

  • Thank doctors, nurses, and support staff

  • Strengthen workplace morale

  • Welcome new team members into the fold

  • Reconnect outside the walls of the clinic

Whether you’re a GP clinic, allied health provider, or hospital-based department, hosting an annual dinner tells your team they are truly appreciated.


A Venue That Understands Healthcare Teams

Not every function venue is built with medical teams in mind. You need somewhere that offers:

  • A private and professional space

  • Dietary flexibility for varied team needs

  • Presentation-ready AV and technical support

  • Warm hospitality without the formality of a hotel

  • Accessibility for guests coming from work or home

Factory51 ticks all the boxes.


Factory51: Brisbane’s Private Dining Space for Medical Teams

Located in Coorparoo, Factory51’s Workshop Room is just minutes from Brisbane’s key medical precincts:

Our location makes it easy for medical professionals to attend after shifts, without the traffic or parking stress of the CBD.

The Workshop Room includes:

  • Private entry, bar, and bathrooms

  • Seating for 20–110 guests

  • Presentation-ready AV (mic, projector, screen)

  • Flexible room layouts to suit your team

It’s ideal for both formal dinners and relaxed celebrations.


Tailored Menus for Mixed Dietary Needs

Medical practices are wonderfully diverse—and so are dietary preferences. That’s why our in-house chefs create handcrafted Italian menus with the ability to customise for most dietary needs.

Here’s a sample 3-course alternate drop menu:

Entrées:

  • House-made gnocchi with prosciutto and truffle cream

  • Charcoal spaghetti with prawns alla Busara

  • Ricotta ravioli with Roman braised pork

Mains:

  • Snapper Puttanesca with polenta and artichoke chips

  • Angus sirloin with truffled potato cream

  • Chicken breast with mushroom risotto

  • Crispy pork belly with white bean purée

Desserts:

  • Tiramisu made in-house

  • Chocolate olive oil cake with mascarpone

  • Vanilla panna cotta with poached strawberries

Menus start from $59pp for 2 courses or $71pp for 3 courses. You can also add antipasti, canapés, or late-night pizzas to extend the celebration.


Presentations, Awards, and Speeches Made Simple

Planning to share a heartfelt message or recognise key staff?

Our AV setup includes:

  • Large projector and dropdown screen

  • Wireless microphone and built-in sound

  • HDMI plug-and-play for your laptop

  • On-site support to help with setup

You can also bring a slideshow, video, or music playlist—our team will help make it seamless.


A Flexible Space for a Demanding Schedule

We know your roster doesn’t always go to plan. Factory51 is built to accommodate:

  • Last-minute RSVPs

  • Cancellations and changes

  • Dietary amendments the day before

  • Modified run sheets if timing shifts

Here’s a sample event timeline that works for medical teams:

6:00pm – Arrival and welcome drinks
6:30pm – Entrées and mains served
7:30pm – Speech, presentation, or awards
8:15pm – Dessert, coffee, and relaxed mingling
9:00pm – Optional pizzas or wind-down

If someone has to duck out early—or if more guests show up than expected—we’ll adapt quickly.


Optional Add-Ons for a More Personal Celebration

Want to personalise your event? Consider these popular additions:

  • Custom printed menus with your practice logo

  • Greenery table styling or festive decor

  • Signature cocktails or mocktails

  • Professional photography for team keepsakes

  • AV slideshow to reflect on the year

  • Gift table or welcome station for guests

You can even set up a staff award segment or trivia game—our team is here to support your ideas.


Practices We’ve Hosted (and What They Loved)

Over the years, Factory51 has hosted end-of-year events for:

  • GP clinics across Brisbane’s inner-east

  • Allied health providers (psychologists, physiotherapists, dietitians)

  • Specialist teams celebrating referral partnerships

  • Hospital admin and private billing teams

  • Reception staff and practice managers

Feedback consistently highlights:

  • “The food was incredible, and service was seamless.”

  • “It felt relaxed, but still really polished.”

  • “They handled our last-minute changes without blinking.”

  • “Our team actually got to enjoy the night—we weren’t managing anything.”


Looking After the Wellbeing of Your Team

If you’re thinking about staff wellbeing, team culture, and recognition, an end-of-year dinner is one of the most meaningful gestures you can make.

Even RACGP encourages team-building and time out from clinical stress as part of maintaining a healthy workplace. And what better way to do that than with excellent food, laughter, and shared stories?
