Marino & The Dough offers a premium, hands-on pizza masterclass experience that brings the craft of authentic Italian pizza right into your home. Led by Australian-Italian pizza artisan Luke Marino, these private classes blend food, connection, and craftsmanship into one unforgettable event.

Perfect for:

• Team building events for businesses on the Gold Coast

• Hens' parties and bridal celebrations

• Birthday parties and special occasions

• Interactive bonding with friends, family, and colleagues

Whether you're planning a private gathering or a corporate event, Marino & The Dough transforms any evening into a relaxed, elevated experience — where every guest learns, creates, and savours the joy of true Italian pizza.

Our masterclasses are designed for private groups of 6 to 15 guests.

Host an evening with friends, family, or workmates — and we’ll take care of the rest. If you're looking for unique hens party ideas or fresh team building ideas on the Gold Coast, this experience is designed for you.

Our masterclasses are mobile! We travel to homes, offices, or private venues across the Gold Coast and surrounding areas, transforming your kitchen into your own Italian pizzeria.

 Every private class includes:

• A relaxed, hands-on Italian pizza masterclass led by Luke Marino

• Full setup — we provide all professional equipment and premium ingredients.

• A curated menu of toppings, plus a seasonal special created by Luke.

• Guidance on stretching, topping, and baking your pizza to perfection.

• One full pizza per guest — crafted by you, enjoyed fresh and hot.

• Time to sit back, enjoy dinner together, and soak in the evening.

You don’t need to bring anything except your good vibes — maybe some music, some drinks, and a few light snacks if you like.

Bookings start at $149 per person for groups of 6 guests minimum.

You can add up to 4 additional guests (for a maximum group of 10).

Cancellations within 7 days of your booking are non-refundable.

Rescheduling must also be requested at least 7 days in advance to allow us to accommodate changes.

Very little — we bring all the ingredients, tools, and equipment.
You’ll just need to provide:

• A clean kitchen benchtop, dining table, or similar workspace (a photo in advance will be helpful)

• An outdoor area for our gas-powered pizza oven

• Permission to use gas equipment at your location

Before the event, you’ll also select your pizzas from our curated menu — nothing complicated, just something delicious to look forward to.

Luke will arrive 15–30 minutes early to set up.

All you need to bring is your guests, your music, your drinks — and we’ll handle the rest
