Corporate Entertainment Ideas

When it comes to corporate event entertainment, hiring the perfect act can be the cherry on top of the cake. Not only does it give your attendees a night to remember, it leaves a great lasting impression on your company. Make a mismatched choice however, and you risk always being known as the business who threw that party. 

Before deciding on the right corporate event entertainment ideas for your event, there’s plenty to consider. Even if you think you’ve got it all figured out, there’s bound to be a game-changing idea that you might never have thought of. That’s where we come in.  

Below, we’ve explained all the need-to-knows around corporate event entertainment. These ideas are guaranteed to get your creative juices flowing, and will totally transform your occasion. Read on to get the lowdown…

Top tips when looking for corporate event entertainment 

So, the time has come for you to find the perfect entertainment for corporate functions. But where do you begin? We recommend laying the groundwork with these handy pointers:

1. Play to the crowd – If you’re already familiar with the majority of attendees at your event, choosing entertainment to suit them will be a lot easier. But if you’re not, don’t panic. Just do a little digging and try to find out the demographics of those on the guestlist. This should give you a better idea of appropriate themes for your gathering. That being said, don’t be too predictable. People often react positively to the unexpected, so be sure to find the right balance between the obvious choice and the wow factor.
2. Align it to your event – Although the entertainment may not be directly related to your corporate event, that doesn’t mean you should just slot it in anywhere and hope for the best. Consider the evening’s schedule. Look at what activities come directly before and after the performance, then choose the act that allows for a smooth transition. In the spirit of creativity, why not try the tongue-in-cheek approach? If you’re a banking firm, for example, you could book a cover band and request songs aligned with your industry, like Abba’s ‘Money, Money, Money’. You’re guaranteed a few laughs and it’s right on theme!
3. Don’t overlook expenses – Seems like a no-brainer, right? We’re not suggesting splashing the cash without a care for your budget. But a little word of warning: stay vigilant to any extra, and less obvious, expenses that come with the corporate entertainment you choose. Take solo vocalists, for example. Their requirements will be significantly less than a 20-piece, all-singing, all-dancing, instrument-playing extravaganza. Make sure you know exactly what you’re paying for and remember to check beyond the base fee.
