Vida Creek Harbour shapes the season with festive gatherings
As the year draws to a close, the waterside destination orchestrates three distinctive celebrations: an evening countdown by the water, a leisurely Christmas brunch, and a take home feast for those who prefer their festivities without kitchen demands.

The final evening of the year unfolds with particular grace at Vida Creek Harbour, where The Courtyard transforms into an elegant gathering place for those who wish to mark the transition into 2027 with sophistication and style. From nine in the evening until one in the morning on the 31st of December, the waterside venue hosts a considered celebration, offering guests the choice between two tiers of experience. The Classic Package provides an evening of food and soft beverages, whilst those inclined toward premium offerings may select the Premium Package with its accompanying wine and spirits selection. For those drawn to the intimacy of the water’s edge, an additional enhancement secures a poolside seat, placing guests in the very heart of the festivities as midnight approaches. Children aged six to eleven are equally welcomed into the occasion, ensuring families may gather together without compromise.
The approach to Christmas at The Courtyard carries an altogether different tenor. Rather than grand spectacle, the day unfolds as a languid afternoon brunch, beginning at one o’clock and extending until four, designed for the kind of unhurried lingering that defines the season at its best. The emphasis here rests upon comfort and connection: good food, genuine company, and the freedom to abandon any schedule whatsoever. The Soft Package offers nourishment paired with non alcoholic beverages, whilst the House Package provides the same culinary experience with a considered selection of house wines and spirits. Again, younger guests are embraced within the celebration, their presence woven naturally into the fabric of the occasion.
Bringing festivity home
For those who prefer to orchestrate their Christmas feast within their own spaces, Stage2 offers an alternative approach to the season’s centrepiece. Between the 15th and 29th of December, the venue provides complete turkey takeaway service, available during daylight and early evening hours. Each offering arrives complete with accompaniments and condiments, eliminating the laborious preparations whilst preserving the essential pleasure of gathering around a table laden with traditional fare. This pragmatic elegance allows hosts to assume all credit for a proper Christmas feast whilst reclaiming their afternoon for what truly matters: time in the company of those who matter most.
Each of these offerings reflects a particular understanding of celebration: whether one seeks the collective energy of a New Year’s Eve counting down by the water, the unhurried comfort of a Christmas afternoon, or the streamlined sophistication of a prepared feast brought home, Vida Creek Harbour shapes the season according to the preferences and rhythms of those it welcomes.
