Creative Ideas for Your Christmas Party
Not everyone can be as creative as us when it comes to work Christmas party planning... but hey, that's what outsourcing is for!
You delegate, we plan it, and you enjoy it.
We know that not everyone wants a Magic Mike extravaganza, so we tailor our planning and ideas to you. To help spark your imagination, we've put together some creative Christmas work do ideas.
Go Big or Go Home
If you want to show your appreciation to your staff after a challenging year, we know a quick day trip to one of the infamous European Christmas markets will get everyone into the Christmas spirit.
Wooden huts, festive lights, regional foods, and mulled wine.
If you act now, you can use the £150 per head tax exemption budget for the Eurostar tickets! The earlier you book, the cheaper it is. Read our blog here to learn more about the Christmas party tax deductible expense.
Our top city picks:
Paris
Brussels
London (if you want to keep it inside the UK).
Not only will you have a great time with the team, but it's also an excellent opportunity for social content! Reels, TikTok's, or personal LinkedIn posts, it works for all.

We don't know about you, but we love having a fun team activity planned for Christmas. It's good to blow off some steam, get the creative juices running ready for the New Year's start, and it helps everyone to HAVE FUN.

Theatre or Pantomine?
Your employees may prefer something local and less time-consuming, if that's the case, we've got you! A trip to the theatre is always a great choice.
A client favourite is A Christmas Carol; though we've all seen and heard the story before, various shows add their touch, and the London theatres always have incredible performances. We know the best ones😉.
There are also viewings for Elf, The Lion King, musicals and many more.
For Small Teams of up to 5!
Many start-up businesses don't need to plan a large Christmas party due to their size. In that case, we suggest planning something intimate and an activity that everyone will enjoy.
You can never go wrong with a group spa afternoon!
Many spas have bundle deals for small groups, including a treatment, spa facility access and afternoon tea.
It's the perfect option for a small team.
We know the ones to pick too.
Sticking to What You Know
You cannot go wrong with a Christmas meal if that is the fan favourite choice. We have relations with many of the best restaurants around London who will take care of you and your team to ensure you have a Christmas party dinner to remember.
We believe a referral of a venue we have experienced always lends better credibility than a quick search... and with that thought, for a festive evening, we recommend:
The Pan Pacific. Enjoy everything from Singaporean cuisine, an afternoon tea to cocktails.
Seabird at The Hoxton, Southwark. A rooftop restaurant with panoramic views of London. You will be dining in style.
Alternatively, if you are true English pub lovers, The Three Crowns is the perfect authentic, traditional pub to host your celebrations.
Events are one of our specialities; we always score a home run every time we plan one!
Don't be the Christmas scrooge who doesn't throw a party the team deserves.
