Our story

OysterLux was created to turn oysters into theatre, moving beyond traditional catering to deliver interaction, elegance, and atmosphere through every service. Today, we partner with private hosts, corporate planners, luxury brands, and venues across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and Adelaide.

Founded by Pete Hilcke, OysterLux was built on deep seafood knowledge and a clear understanding of what makes guests engage. By bringing freshly shucked oysters, premium caviar & exquisite sashimi directly into the crowd, the brand created a style of service that feels interactive, luxurious, and memorable all at once.
