Wonderful Winter Igloos – Market Hotel Ballarat

Access info

Step into a Winter Garden at The Market Hotel Ballarat.

This winter, the Beer Garden at The Market Hotel Ballarat transforms into a wonderful winter garden with toasty warm igloos, offering an unforgettable seasonal experience for groups of all ages. Gather friends, family, or colleagues and step inside one of five beautifully styled igloos, each a cosy retreat from the cold.

These private igloos comfortably seat six to eight guests and are fully enclosed, toasty warm, and designed for comfort. Whether a casual get-together or a special celebration, it's the perfect setting to savour the season.

Guests pre-book indulgent grazing feasts filled with delicious winter favourites and sip on warming drinks as the cold settles in outside.

This year they are also offering a range of special event experiences — Sunday afternoon high tea, bookclub book-nooks with cheese and charcuterie, gin, whiskey and wine tasting nights, and DJ party nights. There will also be school holiday fun for this family. Visit their website for full details and dates.

This is winter done right — intimate, inviting, and filled with great food, cosy spaces, and just the right amount of magic. Bookings are essential. See the winter, feel the warmth.

Please note bookings are for six to eight people, as you have the exclusive use of your own igloo.
