8 entertainment ideas for a corporate party
Organising an end-of-year party, a seminar or a team building event? Here are 8 activities that work, ranked by budget and ease of setup.
1. The photo booth (our speciality)
Budget: €129-359 · Organisation: 5 minutes
The photo booth is the activity with the highest participation rate. A personalised frame with the company logo, printed photos that colleagues take home, GIFs shared on the WhatsApp group the next day. It breaks the ice between departments that never cross paths.
2. The quiz / music quiz
Budget: €0-50 · Organisation: 2-3 hours of preparation
Questions about the company, general knowledge or music. Form teams by department. Plan a few small prizes for the winners. The Kahoot app works very well for this.
3. Karaoke
Budget: €100-300 (equipment hire) · Organisation: 30 min
It works best once people have loosened up. Prepare a list of popular songs. Karaoke works better in the second half of the evening.
4. The mixology workshop
Budget: €300-600 (bartender + ingredients) · Organisation: booking
A professional bartender teaches participants how to make 2-3 drinks. Interactive, convivial, and everyone leaves with a new skill.
5. The pop-up casino
Budget: €500-1,500 · Organisation: supplier
Poker, blackjack and roulette tables with play chips. A great atmosphere guaranteed. Works very well for large parties (50+ people).
6. The murder mystery party
Budget: €300-800 · Organisation: supplier
An immersive investigation in which participants have to solve a fictional murder. It needs more preparation, but the experience is memorable.
7. The mobile escape game
Budget: €400-1,000 · Organisation: supplier
Puzzles to solve as a team, set up directly in your venue. Excellent for team building.
8. DJ + dance floor
Budget: €300-800 · Organisation: booking
The classic. It works for end-of-year parties with 50+ people.
