Oops! Did you just glance at your calendar and realize the holidays are just around the corner? As the executive admin/office superhero it might have been your job to plan the company holiday party, but hey, time flies when you’re having… um, admin fun? No worries! We’re here to guide you through planning the best last-minute out-of-the-office shindig your company has ever seen!

1. Embrace the “Last Minute” Theme

Use the late notice to your advantage! Lean into it and make it fun! Call it the “Last Minute Bash,” “Procrastinator’s Party,” or “Better Late Than Never Fest.” Turn your timing mistake into a fun theme everyone can laugh about.

2. Look For One-Stop-Shop Even Venues

Traditional Venues are likely booked and boring. Think outside the box! Family Entertainment Centers are an awesome place to host company parties. Go-Karts, Bowling, Arcades, Laser Tag, Great Food and Great Fun are all in one place. They have great packages that are all-inclusive and easy to book.

3. Organize Fun Activities That Are Easy to Execute

Think quick and engaging holiday trivia, ugly sweater contest, or a DIY photo booth with props. You can do Secret Santa gift exchange, as well. Those are always fun, easy to organize, and are always fun to watch as people open their gifts.
