corporate holiday parties in Los Alamitos.
Instead of a sit-down dinner, a Los Alamitos company can end the year with a carnival midway: striped game booths, prize shelves, walk-up snacks, a DJ, live entertainers, and a Santa and Mrs. Claus station for employees who bring children. Below is what corporate holiday parties in Los Alamitos can include, where to ask about a site, what each price band buys, and which jobs stay with the host.
The party can sit in the company's own lot, or the host can ask the city about the Los Alamitos Community Center, Laurel Park, or Little Cottonwood Park. The Joint Forces Training Base Recreation Area belongs to the base, so a company that wants it asks the base about access first.
The Carnival Fun Experts provides the carnival entertainment. The host provides the meal, drinks, tables, and chairs.
A company carnival, built for Los Alamitos.
An afternoon party looks like a row of striped booths on a lot. Children trade tickets for prizes at the games, adults line up at the snack stands, and a DJ keeps music playing across the lot. An evening party begins as daylight fades, and warm string lights above the booths take over from the sun. Performers add movement to either one: a magician can circulate among the tables, a juggler can work beside the booths, a stilt walker can greet people at the entrance, and face painters and balloon artists can take care of the children. The organizer books as few or as many as the budget allows.
Staff with children get a Santa and Mrs. Claus station to pose at, and inflatables give the children room to play. A guest list of adults only can leave both out. Catering, drinks of every kind, seating, tents beyond our booths, heating, permits, and other vendors belong to the host. The Carnival Fun Experts supplies the booths, prizes, concessions, DJ, entertainers, and the crew that sets up and clears the midway.

How is the date reserved?
The organizer pays a 50% deposit, which holds the date. After that, the booths, entertainers, and DJ are set against the headcount.
Is an adults-only party possible?
Yes. Booths, a DJ, snack stands, and entertainers such as magicians and caricature artists suit a party with no children. The Santa station and inflatables are optional.
Does The Carnival Fun Experts cater the party?
No. The concession booths sell carnival snacks. The host books the caterer and brings the drinks.
Who takes care of the venue and permits?
The host takes care of both. The Carnival Fun Experts provides the certificate of insurance or the paperwork a permit asks for.
What if our lot is tight?
The booths can bend into a loop or an L, and the snack stands can share a corner. The host sends the dimensions and the layout is drawn to fit.
