The venue

A shaded patio at Fig Tree with teak tables set and the ocean beyond

Fig Tree

431 Ocean Front Walk, Venice Beach

Family run since 1978, with a California Latin kitchen and bar in house. Groups take a corner of the patio, Cueva or the whole restaurant, with the Pacific in front. Hours run 8am to 8:30pm, 9pm on Fridays and Saturdays, and stay flexible at either end for events.

When teams book

There's no wrong time to book. Teams settle their celebrations at every point in the year, and each approach works.

Plan the year in May

Some teams book every offsite, meeting and celebration for the rest of the financial year in one go, so the holiday party is settled before summer.

Book in late summer

August and September give the most Friday and Saturday dates to choose from for a December party.

Celebrate in the new year

Teams that are busiest in November and December celebrate in January or February, when Fig Tree’s minimums return to their usual rates.

Pick the format first

Group size decides the format, and the format decides which space fits.

Team lunch or dinner, 18 to 38

The Cabana Lounge, the Indoor Bar or Cueva, from a $1,200 minimum.
