A successful summer party depends on proper and timely planning. Especially in summer, venues and service providers are often booked up well in advance and popular dates are overbooked. It is advisable to start planning early, i.e. at least two to three months before the planned date.
When choosing the date, holiday periods, other internal dates and public holidays must be taken into account. The period in June/July between Whitsun and the summer holidays, but also September, are popular times for summer parties, as the weather is usually warm and sunny and most employees are available before or after the holidays.
The day of the week should also be carefully considered. In our experience, Thursday is the perfect day for a summer party.
The goal of the summer party should also be clearly defined from the outset. The rest of the planning depends on this. Is the aim to promote team building, strengthen employee loyalty or simply spend some relaxed time outside the office? Should the party be held indoors or outdoors? These goals have a significant influence on the type of activities and the suitable location.
