Looking for different, new-to-you company holiday party planning ideas? Do you want to mix things up or add some new fun to your company’s holiday gathering? Our first piece of advice for companies planning a holiday party is: don’t procrastinate. If you want to add a new entertainer, refreshment or novelty item, contact your entertainment agent or vendor as soon as possible. The newest trends (and entertainers) get booked quickly; decide on your plan of action promptly so you can add a new twist to this year’s company holiday party.
Hot chocolate/hot cocoa bar
Want to give your guests a warm inviting feel at your company holiday party? No matter what you call, a hot chocolate or hot cocoa bar is a wonderful way to warm your guests up to your event. Set up a hot cocoa bar as a way of welcome (or farewell, especially if they are heading out into the cold), or as a side table at your company holiday party.
Mind reader
Want to wow your guests at your next company holiday party? Hire the mind reader that puts the ‘entertain’ in entertainer: Christopher Carter. Christopher is a perfect performer for almost any audience, amazing them by illuminating light bulbs in their hands, reading their minds about contents in their pockets and many other phenomenal acts! If you are looking for one of America’s most requested novelty acts, contact us about Christopher. He’s the perfect entertainer for small or large holiday party audiences, and personalizes every presentation so your guests get a unique and specialized performance that leaves them in awe.
Photo booth or Photographer
Want to give your company holiday party guests a chance to remember their special night? Or a chance to take their family holiday card photo? Give them a photo booth where they can ham it up with their co-workers (and props to do so!). For a company holiday party focused on employee families, provide a photographer that can take their holiday card family photo and post it online for download.
Juggler & Comedian
Want an entertainer so fun even the kids pay attention? Contact us to hire an entertainer that can keep the youngest and most experienced audience members amused at your next holiday party. His name is Bobby Hunt, and he is the entertainer that can make your next company holiday party an occasion your guests never forget.
Ice bar
An ice bar is a unique touch at any company holiday party, and perfect for any company holiday party in the Midwest (especially when the temps hit an all-time low outside). Serve the cocktails at your next company holiday party from an ice bar customized for your theme, or with logos and artwork specially designed for your next holiday event. Want to find out more about this unique idea? We can give you all the information you need for your next company party.
Holiday piano entertainment
Planning a classy holiday party that demands a fun and upscale pair of entertainers? Contact us about our holiday dueling piano show, which can get anyone into the holiday spirit.
White Christmas show
Even if your guests are too young to remember the original White Christmas film, they’ll be entertained by this wonderful quartet’s concert filled with classic holiday songs such as “Mr. Santa” and “Baby it’s cold outside” as well as many other classics. This is your chance to show your appreciation by taking your guests to the theater for a night or an afternoon.
Our next piece of advice is to make sure you have a new idea that fits the demographic of your guests. For example, a party for your employees and their children requires different entertainment, refreshments and party favors than a party for your employees and their spouses. If you are using an experienced entertainment agent for booking your entertainers (like Artists, Events and Entertainment, Inc.), expect that task to be already done. An experienced entertainment agent can also give you other ideas to make your next company holiday party a success.
