How do you know it’s almost Christmas? Well, the shops are full of Easter eggs! OK, not quite, but the seasons do seem to rush in on us these days. If you are responsible for an in-house Christmas event, which is a posh way of uttering the dread words ‘The Company Christmas Party’, you may well already have secured the venue and began to make your plans. It’s also possible that you are tasked with some kind of event involving key customers as a ‘thank you’ for their business.

Planning a Party?

Whichever of these is in your remit – and if you have truly sinned this year, it may be both – you’ll probably already know it’s not simply a case of throwing everybody into a room, organising food and drink, booking a band or disco, and you’re good to go. There’s an assumption that everyone will instantly be at their jolliest, ever ready to enter into the seasonal joyfulness with unbridled enthusiasm. It’s not always true though, is it? Staff events, for example, often throw together folk who rarely meet, and may even occasionally argue when they do! The start can be awkward – it can take time to set the mood and liven up the group.

Hire a Comedian!

One way to give yourself the best chance to have a rumbustiously happy event is to quickly book the services of one of our many super stand-up comedians. Quickly is a key word, as their services are much in demand at this time of year.
