corporate holiday parties in Laguna Woods.
A corporate holiday party with carnival entertainment is a company's year-end gathering rebuilt around booths and games, concessions, a DJ or sound system, entertainers and a Santa station for staff with kids. The Carnival Fun Experts provides the entertainment and the company covers the food and furniture. This guide to corporate holiday parties in Laguna Woods lists the formats, the price bands and the host's list.
A company in Laguna Woods can use its own lot or ask about the sites named for the city: City Centre Park, A Place for Paws Dog Park, Laguna Woods Village Community Center and Laguna Woods Village Performing Arts Center. The Village venues are managed by the Village, and the parks by the city. Whichever route a company takes, the host confirms space and dates with the venue or the city before staff are told a date.
The Carnival Fun Experts produces company holiday parties across Orange County and Riverside County, sized by headcount.
How a company party plays out in Laguna Woods.
A host starts by choosing the hours, because the hours decide who comes and what the lot looks like. Daytime parties draw staff families: games for children, Santa and Mrs. Claus at the photo station, and a few inflatables. An after-work party drops the youngest games, keeps a handful of booths for a friendly team contest and gives the DJ the evening. A company can also run a family afternoon and an adult evening on the same lot.
A company picks its entertainers from a list: face painters, balloon artists, caricature artists, jugglers, stilt walkers and walk-around magicians. Two or three keep the lot lively. The concessions are churros, pretzels, popcorn, cotton candy, nachos, snow cones and caramel apples, and the host arranges everything else to eat and drink. Tables, chairs and any tent beyond our booths are the host's as well. A walk-through of the lot or the room with The Carnival Fun Experts fixes where the booths, the Santa station and the DJ stand, and which outlets are available to each.
