Holiday Parties are the perfect way to show your employees how much you appreciate them. We’ve put together a guide of based on our experience hosting holiday parties at our venue to help you put together an unforgettable celebration!
- Timing is Everything
While a holiday party on any day of the week is fun, consider what makes the most sense for your company? Parties on Tuesday and Wednesdays are great for a mid-week break while parties on Thursday-Saturday offer guests more options to let loose and enjoy.
- Stand out with a Great Venue
Look for spaces that are unique and have something for everyone. We love hosting corporate parties in our underground bar, Rabbit Hole. This space features incredible architecture, a large dance floor, multiple nooks for quiet conversations, a full bar, a DJ booth, and plenty more.
- Signature Sips
Showcase a selection of signature holiday cocktails and mocktails that will have your guests toasting all night. We offer options for open bar packages, drink tickets, or cash bars so be sure to check in with your venue for their offerings.
- Fun Vendors
Fun vendors are an excellent way to liven up any party. At Circ and Rabbit Hole at Root, we embrace the wacky and weird! We’ve worked with fire eaters, caricature artists, and tarot card readers to help make past holiday parties unforgettable.
- Unique Food and Drink
While burgers, fries, and pizza are delicious, it can be fun to offer food and drinks that are less common. Consider options like a ramen noodle bar, a cappuccino cart, or a grazing table.
- Interactive Entertainment
Another way to take your holiday party to the next level is to incorporate games or activities that get your guests involved. We love to see yard games, MarioKart showdowns, and board game rooms.
Throwing holiday parties for your team not only brings everyone together, but it also adds a burst of joy, boosts spirits, and strenthens the special bond between your employees. From the timing of your event, to your drink package, incorporating lively vendors and offering unique food options, and finishing off with a plethora of engaging activities, these six tips will ensure that your event isn’t just a party, but a memorable and enjoyable experience for everyone. Cheers to hosting a spectacular holiday celebration!
