We know, it’s only summer. But when it comes to planning a corporate holiday party that your team will actually look forward to, now is the time to get started. Venues book fast, caterers fill up, and the best entertainment? That’s us, and our calendar fills up even faster.
If you’re in charge of your company’s end-of-year celebration, we’ve got your back. Here are our top tips for planning a fun, stress-free corporate holiday party, and why you should get the ball rolling today.
1. Book Early to Get the Best Date, Venue, & Vendors
The biggest mistake companies make? Waiting until October. By then, the prime dates are long gone. If you want a corporate holiday party on a Friday or Saturday in December, you need to lock it in by summer.
The earlier you book:
- The more choices you’ll have for venues
- The better your options for catering, entertainment, and décor
- The more time you’ll have to build buzz and get your team excited
Pro tip: Our casino nights are in especially high demand during the holidays, so don’t wait to secure your spot!
2. Choose an Experience, Not Just a Dinner
Let’s be honest: the average holiday party can be… forgettable. Want people talking about your event well into next year? Give them an interactive experience they’ll love just like a full-scale casino night.
With Vegas on Wheels, your team can:
- Play blackjack, poker, craps, and roulette
- Compete for prizes (or just bragging rights)
- Enjoy professional dealers and authentic casino tables
- Unwind in a lively, no-pressure environment
No one’s stuck at a table making small talk because they’re having fun, making memories, and actually engaging.
3. Pick the Right Venue (or Let Us Come to You!)
From downtown Milwaukee venues to on-site office transformations, we’ve done it all. Our casino rentals work in:
- Hotel ballrooms
- Office breakrooms
- Breweries and event halls
- Tented outdoor spaces (yes, even in winter)
If you need help finding the right venue, we’re happy to recommend our favorites across Milwaukee and the surrounding areas.
4.Make It Inclusive
Corporate holiday parties should be fun for everyone, so skip the formal sit-down dinner and give people options. A casino night lets guests mingle at their own pace, whether they’re social butterflies or more reserved.
Want to go big? Add extras like:
- A themed photo booth
- Festive drinks and mocktails
- Raffle prizes for top chip earners
- Custom poker chips with your company logo
5. Don’t Leave It to the Last Minute
Your coworkers might not be thinking about holiday parties yet, but they’ll be so glad you did. By starting in June or July, you’ll avoid the stress of last-minute decisions and enjoy a smooth, well-planned event.
And you’ll beat the rush for high-demand dates and vendors like… you guessed it—Vegas on Wheels.
