Making your corporate event memorable for your guests or delegates isn’t just about the keynote speakers or the breakouts. More often, your guests will remember a terrific experience, of which your choice of entertainment is a key element. And equally important in this day of instant gratification social media, they’ll want to post pictures of that experience with your hashtag!
So, what entertainment will get your guests on their phones for the right reasons at your corporate events in autumn 2018 and 2019? We reckon if you want them to share, you need to get them involved….
Awards dinners
Your employees have worked hard, so it’s time to celebrate their contributions and achievements. Many are black tie and formal, so why not ring the changes with a real celebratory atmosphere from start to finish. Look at high energy acts that offer the chance to be part of the show. So, even if one team doesn’t win a glittering prize, they might be the best limbo dancers, Brazilian salsa team or karaoke maestros!
Limbo dancer Itara
Itara makes it look all so easy….
London School of Samba
Fill your event with the colour, energy and music of Rio carnival anytime of the year.
Karaoke with a live band
Who can resists the lure of the mic when they are backed by a live band for their favourite pop classic. Tuneful singing strictly optional!
Team meetings and on-boarding sessions
Team meetings and on-boarding sessions enable your employees to make connections. It’s an opportunity that may only happen once or twice a year, so make the most of it! Drumming workshops and performances are a great way to bring people together regardless of background, experience or, dare we say, talent!

International conferences
Conferences are a highly efficient way of gaining invaluable insights, information and inspiration. However, listening attentively for hours is remarkably tiring, especially for overseas delegates who are not listening to or talking in their native language. So, entertain them with visually stunning entertainment that delights without the need for words.
