A company holiday party is an excellent way to build teamwork and boost morale throughout the office. But planning one isn’t always easy. Luckily, clear span tents can help ease the stress of planning.
It is that time of year again. The infamous company holiday party.
You know, the one where the entire office may be placing bets to see if Joe in Accounting will drink too much this year or if Betty from Communications will perform her sour tradition of Santa Baby karaoke-style.
Company holiday parties can be a fun time to socialize with your co-workers outside of the formal workplace.
You can let your guard down (for the most part) and have a jolly good time. And, perhaps make memories that will still be talked about at next year’s holiday party.
But just as it matters who attends the party, it also matters where you have the party.
Believe it or not, tents provide the perfect location for any company holiday party. Here’s why.
1. Have the Company Holiday Party Anywhere
When planning a company holiday party, you want to make it convenient.
Face it, this is perhaps the busiest time of year.
The last thing anyone is going to want to do is to drive to an unknown location to attend a holiday party with people from work.
Instead, having your party somewhere convenient can make things much smoother for everyone involved.
With a tent, you can just about have your party anywhere – including in your company’s parking lot. You cannot get much more convenient than that.
Clearspan tents don’t require any special ground for setting up.
They can be constructed on
- Sand
- Grass
- Dirt
- Concrete
So, stop the search for the perfect indoor venue that may meet your needs and instead find a place that will work best for all of your employees and go for it.
2. Accommodate Both Employees and Guests
Depending on how large your company is, you may find it difficult to find a venue that is large enough to encompass all of your employees – not even including spouses, family, or other guests.
When you decide to rent a tent, however, you will find that this is not an issue at all.
In fact, you could allow your employees to come alone or bring their entire families.
Why?
Because tents can be customized to meet your exact sizing needs.
A tent can reduce the embarrassment of having to tell your employees they cannot bring a guest.
And, it reduces the stress of trying to search for the venue that is the right size.
3. Saving Money on Venues = More Money for Important Things.
Have you ever paid attention to the rental fees associated with hosting a party at a specific venue?
These fees can be very high. And, unfortunately, many venue rentals require you to either use their catering services or use those from a designated list.
Doing so can reduce your ability to shop around for the best price to meet your needs.
Choosing to rent a tent means that you don’t have to worry about catering venues.
You have a lot more freedom when it comes to your party, which means you can put your money in things you want and not those you don’t.
After renting your tent, you can take a look at your budget and discover the great savings.
Then, utilize those extra funds for more important things, such as prizes or gifts for employees, or even a special entertainer.
4. Tents Give You Privacy
Privacy is more important for some companies than others. But, no matter how private and secure your company is, having some privacy for your company party is often welcomed.
Many party rental venues you have to choose from are located in busy convention centers, hotels, etc.
This easily blasts your company’s holiday party to anyone who passes by.
However, when you rent a tent – and have it erected at a location of your choosing – you are provided a confidential party space.
Think about this – you are less likely to have a stranger make their way into your company parking lot and into your party than you are to have your party in a resort’s banquet hall during the holidays.
5. Design the Layout However You Want
Clearspan tents offer you a wide-open space to design for the holiday party. There are no walls or poles to get in the way.
So, your space can be transformed into many areas:
- A dining area
- A dance floor
- An entertainment area
- A lounging area
Just as every party will vary, so will every space’s design. With a banquet hall, your design abilities are limited. But, with a tent rental, you will find they are limitless.
It is important to note that you can rent your tent customized in ways that make your job much easier. These include options such as:
- Sidewalls
- Floorings, such as wood or carpet
- Elegant entryways
- Clear or fabric panels
- Lighting
- Generator
- HVAC climate control system to keep your guests cool or warm, depending on your needs
6. Make Set Up and Clean Up a Breeze
Renting a tent means that you will have a crew come to construct – and deconstruct – the tent for your party.
This makes it simple for you.
There is no need to have to figure it out yourself – or find someone to do it for you.
Furthermore, have you ever considered the cost of having spills or other damage to a rented venue?
If you have some rowdy employees, then you may want to consider the benefits of having a party outdoors.
Conclusion
Your employees deserve a holiday party.
By creating a budget and making some smart decisions, you can pull it off.
Find a location that is both convenient for your employees and that will allow them to bring their significant other.
Then, rent a tent that will accommodate everyone.
Overall, this choice should allow you to use some extra funds to do something special for those who work so hard for you all year long.
Now that you know why you should rent a tent for your company holiday party – what are you waiting for?
