Holiday Parties Ideas For Corporate Event Planners
The holiday season is a time for celebration, and what better way to celebrate than with a company holiday party? But with so many different ideas out there, it can be hard to know where to start.
That’s where we come in. We’ve put together a list of 10-holiday party ideas that are sure to impress, and we’ve even included some tips to help you plan the perfect event.
Themed Holiday Party
A themed holiday party is a great way to get your employees excited about the event. You could choose a traditional holiday theme, such as Christmas or Hanukkah, or you could get creative and choose a more unique theme, such as a winter wonderland or a tropical paradise.
Secret Santa
Secret Santa is a fun and festive way to spread some holiday cheer. Have each employee draw a name and then secretly buy a gift for their recipient. You can either have everyone exchange gifts at the party or have them deliver them to each other’s desks beforehand.
Ugly Sweater Party
Ugly sweater parties are always a hit. Encourage your employees to come dressed in their ugliest sweaters and have a contest for the best one. You could even have a prize for the winner.
Karaoke Party
Karaoke parties are a great way to let loose and have some fun. Set up a karaoke machine in your office or rent a space at a local bar or restaurant. You could even have a contest for the best singer.
Game Night
Game nights are a great way to bring your employees together and have some fun. Set up a table with board games, card games, or video games and let your employees loose. You could even have a competition to see who can win the most games.
Potluck
A potluck is a great way to save money and get your employees involved in the planning of the party. Have each employee bring a dish to share and then enjoy a feast together.
Outdoor Party
If the weather is nice, consider having your holiday party outdoors. You could rent a space at a local park or have the party in your own backyard. This is a great way to get some fresh air and enjoy the winter weather.
Volunteer Event
Instead of having a traditional holiday party, you could consider volunteering your time to a local charity. This is a great way to give back to your community and show your employees that you care about more than just making a profit.
Virtual Party
If your company is remote, or if you have employees who can’t make it to the office for the party, you could have a virtual party. This is a great way to connect with your employees and celebrate the holidays even if you can’t be together in person.
Gift Exchange
A gift exchange is a great way to spread some holiday cheer and get your employees excited about the party. You could either have everyone bring a gift to exchange or you could have a Secret Santa.
These are just a few ideas to get you started. With a little creativity, you can plan a holiday party that your employees will never forget.
Here are some additional tips for planning a successful holiday party:
- Set a budget and stick to it.
