How can you make sure that your colleagues send an email the day after the party saying: "Wow, what a party and what an organization, great job! I'm already looking forward to the next party!"
It seems very simple, but you can quickly get lost in the options and possibilities.

Here you will find 10 useful tips and tricks that will ensure that your company party really goes through the roof.
Knowledge is key. Make sure you know what your colleagues like to listen to. Based on this information you can find the perfect band. But what if the musical tastes differ greatly? Then it is useful to look at a band like YourBand , Night at the Jukebox who can create a tailor-made program.
Searching for a band yourself via Google is of course fun, but it can also be incredibly time-consuming and the outcome of a successful party can also be disappointing. Knock on a door booking agency with experience and knowledge. They can tell you exactly which band would fit your event.
Make sure the location is suitable for a band. Discuss the wishes of the band with the location. Therefore always ask for Riders of the band. Pay attention to stairs, power supply, dressing room and very important: the DB limit must be suitable for a live band.
Get your colleagues excited! The more people the more fun, by giving your colleagues updates and involving them in the process you ensure that they definitely don't want to miss the party. There is nothing more annoying than celebrating a party with 20% of your colleagues while you expected at least 80% to come. A band of ours that does that very nicely is YourBand . Here you can put together the set list together with your colleagues.
Think big, bigger, biggest ! A cracking light show can make a huge difference. It is scientifically proven that fast lights have a positive effect on the experience. That is why you always see a huge amount of lights hanging at big festivals.
DJ, fire and confetti! A DJ during the breaks of the band is almost a must at a company party, preferably book this together with the band so that they are optimally attuned to each other. Finding confetti in your hair after 3 days is of course proof that it was a successful party. (Not every location is happy with confetti, so check this with them first.) A great alternative are for example sparkulars, these are cold fire fountains and give a nice effect! Going all out with flames and co2 is of course completely insane.
Pampering the band and the technical crew. This is often forgotten, but in practice it works like this: if you take good care of your people, they will go the extra mile to make your party extra fun.
Ask your colleagues to share fun videos and photos with you so that you can collect them afterwards and share them on the work floor so that colleagues who were not there will definitely be there next time!
Don't hesitate. Or at least don't hesitate too long. The more you search around, the more options you will find, at some point you can't see the forest for the trees. In addition, all musicians you book at JungleBookings are also real professional musicians. This way we can guarantee the quality. Keeping a band in option for a long time also means that the musicians can't do anything else and can miss out on jobs/income.
Ask your colleagues for feedback . Feedback can also be positive and if you get negative feedback, that is only a bonus for the next time. Everyone will probably tell you that it was a great party.
With these 10 tips and tricks, your company party will be an absolute blast!
