Overview
Brisbane has long been partial to a party boat. The Island did the honours from the 80s through until early this decade, and Seadeck has cruised the river over the last couple of years. Now Yot Club is sailing into the city's waters, and it's set to make quite a big splash — as you'd expect from a huge yacht with two bars, a stage, a dance floor and a 400-person capacity.
Set to launch this summer in Brisbane as well as on the Gold Coast, the glamorous, custom-built vessel is calling itself "the world's first super yacht entertainment venue". It's certainly something that southeast Queensland hasn't seen before, at the very least. Sprawling over two levels, it measures nearly 40-metres long and over 22-metres wide, and blends a licensed floating club and a luxe function space, including room for 200 people to enjoy a sit-down meal.
With lounges across an open deck and undercover, a VIP room in the hull, both general and ticketed events set to welcome guests, and the promise of bands and DJs on its lineup, Yot Club wants to be the region's one-stop watery hangout. It'll be serving more than water, of course, thanks to a menu of classic and creative cocktails, plus brews chilled in the 45-keg-capacity cool room.
Planning your own shindig? You'll also be able to hire the yacht for private functions — and there's also a commercial kitchen onboard.
Details of where it'll set off from haven't yet been revealed, but when the Yot Club starts zooming down the river, you won't be able to miss it.
Yot Club launches this summer in Brisbane on the Gold Coast. We'll update you with a date when we have one.
