About this Event

Private Dining at SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium

Event suitable for 16 years + only.

Awaken your senses beneath the waves at our exclusive underwater private dining experience, now in collaboration with renown winemakers Penfolds. This once-in-a-lifetime event seamlessly blends the unparalleled majesty of the marine world with the mouth-watering delight of fine dining at its very best. Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries or other special occasions, this is a meal you’re sure to remember.

Explore the SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium without the usual daytime hustle and bustle on a serene self-guided tour before indulging in a delicious three-course meal prepared by a team of world-class chefs. Hand-selected by expert sommeliers to suit each dish, you’ll also be treated to a velvety Penfolds chardonnay, robust shiraz, a floral viognier and a dazzling champagne brut rosé.

With a host of dining locations available – including the vibrant Coral Atoll, lively Penguin Playground and enthralling Jellyfish Lab – you’ll be able to tailor your dining experience to a tee. Enjoy the aquarium’s 2.2 million litres of crystal-clear water and thousands of captivating creatures as you’ve never seen them before, all while sampling some of the finest wines and dishes Australia has to offer.

Conveniently nestled in the heart of the CBD, the Melbourne Aquarium can be found on Flinders Street.
