Before organising a company end-of-year party

To plan your company’s end-of-year party successfully, calling on a professional is the best solution. However, you need to be aware of the various stages involved in bringing such a project together . None of these points should be overlooked.

Define the objective of the evening

Like any other corporate event, an end-of-year party must have a precise objective. By defining it, you’ll be able to take advantage of the evening’s full potential. It may be that you want to strengthen your team’s cohesion, thank your staff, etc.

Choosing the right date

December is often a busy time for companies. Many of them organise a party to end the year on a high note. To avoid unpleasant surprises, it is best to choose the right day for your event as early as possible. Once the date has been set, remember to book the venue or room as soon as possible.

Selecting the ideal venue

Once you’ve chosen the date for the event you must now select the venue. To find that rare gem, you’ll need to take a number of criteria into account, including the type of event; it could be a buffet, a dance party, etc. You should also consider the style of the venue as well as the number of guests.

Send out invitations well in advance

To ensure that all your staff will be present at the party, send them the invitations as early as possible. Take the opportunity to ask them for important information about their dietary requirements as they may have allergies.

Set a realistic budget

It’s obvious that everyone wants to organise an exceptional end-of-year party. However, the budget can quickly escalate if you jump in headlong. You’ll need to define it carefully beforehand, taking certain points into account. These include the venue, decoration, entertainment, food and drink, and any additional costs.

Finding a catchy theme

To make the evening more fun, there’s nothing better than finding a catchy theme. You’re advised to go for original themes. A disco evening, for example, will do the trick. The advantage is that it’s suitable for all generations.

Entertaining guests

Entertainment is always welcome at an end-of-year party. If your budget allows, don’t hesitate to offer a variaty of enterntaiment to your employees. It’ll be sure to keep them enthusiastic and motivated. You could opt for karaoke, a magician, etc.

Feeding your staff

As well as entertaining your guests, you should also think about feeding them well during the evening. Don’t forget that good food and drink make people happy. Food and drink are therefore key aspects of the party.

Thanking your guests

After the event, don’t hesitate to send a thank-you email to your staff. At the same time, ask them for feedback on whether they enjoyed the evening or not. This will help you identify areas of improvement for future events.
