Team bonding opportunities
Given the team spirit that can come from a Christmas party, consider finding a venue that can offer a little bit extra, so you can turn it into a team-building event followed by a Christmas lunch or dinner. For example, see if there are facilities to do a team-building challenge, game-show style event or adventurous group activity to get the team spirit flying high before the Christmas meal.
Practicalities
A good Christmas party venue will give you options for making your event original and memorable, while taking care of all the practical elements seamlessly. When it comes to practicalities, check there are different menu options and enough alternatives for those with dietary requirements. Find out if there are ample parking facilities for your group and ask what arrangements can be made for those who will need public transport or taxis. And if you want to go all-out, find out what options there are for overnight accommodation.
