Planning the Perfect Office Christmas Party with Clara

It may only be August but if you’re tasked with organising your office Christmas party you’d better get cracking. In the next month or two, the best venues and accommodations will start getting snapped up.

If you want to make festive party planning as quick and easy as possible then Clara Office Management can help - whatever your budget, headcount, and brief.

Your Party, Your Way

Need something special in a fantastic venue that doesn’t break the bank? Our dedicated concierge has plenty of tricks up their sleeve. Or we can provide a range of options for a party in your office that goes above and beyond the usual fare.

We prioritise high-quality and value-for-money suppliers - with a focus on ethical and B Corp organisations. From street food pop-ups, to mulled wine, cocktails, and festive treats, we can add some sparkle to your celebration.

Top Tips for a Memorable Christmas Party

1. Start Early!

Our number one rule for the best Christmas party possible is to start planning in the summer. The run-up to Christmas is a busy time, with people attending multiple events. Setting a date early will save a lot of hassle come November.

2. Embrace Your Office Space

Hosting a party in your own office is a great way to keep costs down. Thanks to Clara Office Management, we can transform any office space into something special, tailored to your requirements. We’ve got everything covered, from mulled wine and cocktails to festive cupcakes and decorations. And we especially love Laylo’s high-quality boxed wine.

3. Focus on Fun & Team Bonding

We collaborate with venues that offer unique experiences. Consider Trapeze bar’s Circus-themed entertainment or exclusive hire of The Plonk for mini-golf. For in-office bonding, how about festive wreath-making or a salsa class? And for remote workers, there's online drag bingo with Ru Paul star Charlie Hinds. For those on tighter budgets, consider Christmas gifts and hampers for staff or clients.
