If you’ve been given the task of organising the office Christmas party this year, some people might wish you good luck with that! However, it doesn’t have to be such a challenge, and we have a few tips on how to make your office Christmas party the best one yet.
Start planning early
You might be thinking that August is too early to start thinking about Christmas, let alone the office Christmas party, but lots of party planners will tell you that the earlier you book, the better. Lots of venues get booked up very quickly for Christmas, so start thinking about options now.
Shortlist venues
Once you’ve done your initial research, shortlist a few venues which might be suitable and think about things like the venue capacity or whether you’ll be able to string up your own Christmas lights.
Think about decor
Once you’ve finalised a venue, you need to then start thinking about your Christmas decorations. Decide what you need now and you can start grabbing bits here and there to make the party the talk of the office.
Food and drinks
Food and drinks are important at any party, but for Christmas, you will need to think about particular seasonal options that will really give your party that festive feel.
Entertainment
If you’re planning to go all out this Christmas, then entertainment is another thing to consider. The most popular choice of entertainment is to hire a DJ, then you and your colleagues can dance the night away full of festive food and drink.
