Varsity Waterford is the best venue in Karrawara, hands down. Food is always bussin', our party went super smoothly, and the arcade was lit.

Frequently asked questions
Hell. Yes. We'll never knock back a good cake - just ask our bar crew to pop it in the fridge for ya until you're ready to slice it up. Just save us a piece, yeah?
We'll lock in a function space for you for three hours. If you wanna keep the party going a little longer, have a chat with our functions manager, and we will see what we can do for you. These bookings will be approved depending on the function areas availability on the day, but we'll do what we can to make it work.
Now we're talkin'. If you're keen to book the whole venue exclusively, please reach out to our functions manager, and we'll see if we can make it happen.
