Christmas office party
Here are some great ideas to shake things up and get everyone excited for their year-end party.
Throwing Christmas parties in the office has become dull and boring, so here are some great ideas to shake things up and get everyone excited for their year-end party.
· An event inspired by the TV show, The Amazing Race, is a Christmas party and team-building exercise rolled into one. Organise a scavenger hunt to different locations in your area and let different departments compete against each other for the top prize.
· You know those horrid Christmas sweaters, featuring a felt Santa with a fluffy wool beard and reindeer with silver stitching around their antlers? Well, instruct everyone to find a Christmas sweater to wear to the party. Anyone who doesn’t show up with a sweater will be given one of the spare sweaters you have on hand, and a pair of reindeer ears or some other kind of embarrassing prop for good measure. Decorate the room with bright and fun decorations and offer a reward for the most impressive sweater.
· From The Santa Clause to A Christmas Story to It’s a Wonderful Life to Bad Santa, the holidays are rich with beautiful, heartwarming and hilarious films. A great inexpensive theme for an office party is to choose a few of your favorites and stage a little screening. Rent a projector, spread beanbags and comfy chairs around, and supply traditional movie snacks like popcorn, pizza and candy bars.
· If your office is on the casual side, why not encourages everyone to come dressed to the nines for a masquerade ball? In the invitation, you could perhaps explain the history of masquerade balls and link to some tutorials on mask-making to get everyone thinking of ideas for their own.
