Mackay funeral home

A funeral or memorial service doesn’t need to be held at our funeral home. We can help you arrange a farewell at a church, crematorium, or another location that holds special meaning for your loved one.

Beaches, parks and reserves
The Mackay region offers beautiful coastal and natural settings for funerals and memorials. 

• Harbour Beach

• Eimeo Beach

• Blacks Beach

• The Mackay Harbour precinct

• Bluewater Lagoon surrounds

• Local parks and reserves through the Pioneer Valley

Availability and permissions vary by location. We can look into this for you as part of the planning process. 

Local churches 
We work closely with churches and faith communities throughout Mackay.

• St Joseph’s Catholic Church

• St Patrick’s Catholic Church

• St Paul’s Uniting Church

• St John’s Anglican Church

• Mackay Baptist Church

If your family has another place of worship in mind, let us know. We support all religions. 

Community venues
Community spaces can be welcoming environments for memorial services and gatherings. Mackay is home to many local settings suitable for a personalised farewell.

• Mackay Surf Life Saving Club

• Local RSL and sporting clubs

• Community halls through Mackay and surrounding districts 

We can assist you with permissions, bookings and coordination.
