Christmas is over, the New Year is in full swing and for those who had the joy of sorting out the work’s Christmas party, you may be glad to see the back of it…and then you get to do it all over again. So we want to make things easier for you, and put together this guide to give you the perfect work Christmas party in London. 

When it comes to staff Christmas parties for businesses, the amount of planning, costing and time spent ensuring that everything runs smoothly up until the last guest leaves can be a massive drain on time and resources, not to mention the stress involved (especially if you have a lot of staff).

One of the most effective and easiest ways to ensure that not only do you get your precious time back during the festive period, but also get to enjoy that stress-free Christmas party you dream of, is to let us take care of everything.

What do you mean everything? 

Ok, let’s break it down into sections for you. Christmas parties and festive team building events, in general, can be broken down into the following areas:

  • Finding the right venue
  • Creating the perfect theme
  • Ensuring the event is run smoothly
  • Everyone has a great time

Each of the sections above requires a differing degree of skills and time spent on it and you have better things to be doing than chasing round looking for the perfect venue for 400 guests. We have teams dedicated and specialising in all of the above, so let me show you why we can give you a stress-free Christmas for 2020.

Finding the Perfect London Venue

Ensuring you have the perfect venue for your staff party can be a daunting task. You have to ensure that not only is it in the right location, big enough to hold all of your guests, catering, dance floor and parking but it is suitably glamorous (after all nobody wants a work Christmas party in a village hall 100 miles from their offices.)

We have extensive knowledge of venues across the UK and into Europe to fit all budgets and capacity sizes, so no matter how many people you want at your event (we have worked with capacities of 500+) we will be able to help.

Below are 3 stunning venues to suit different business sizes that offer something very different from the standard office party, because when it comes to your work Christmas party you want to make an impression to everyone who attends!
