Planning an Office Summer Party that Everyone will Love | Just Eat for Business

Consider this blog to be your ultimate guide to planning a cracking summer party for your teams!

Summer is coming up fast, and along with the sunshine (we can hope!), we're now busy prepping for summer party season. We've got everything you need here to make sure your office get-together goes off without a hitch. Whether you're looking to go all out with a deluxe sushi pop-up and some bespoke cocktails, or you want something a little more chilled out (dessert bar pop-up anyone?) we've got everything you need to host the perfect summer event.

Tip #1: Choose the right venue

If the weather has been reliable, why not consider hosting the event outdoors to take advantage of the warm weather? You could even use your office's outdoor space if you have one, like a rooftop or courtyard. Make sure the venue is accessible to everyone and has enough space for all your planned activities.

Tip #2: Organise some team activities to keep people entertained

No summer party is complete without some team-building games and activities. If you have the space, giant lawn games like tic-tac-toe or jenga work well! It's worth noting that while it's important to have plenty of activities, don't forget to create spaces where people can relax and socialise. 

Tip #3: Order in enough food and drinks!

Obviously, we saved the best til last! Make sure you have a good range of food and drinks pop-ups with a variety of cuisines and meal options that cover all your team's dietary requirements, as well as non-alcoholic options for those who don't want to drink. You can check out our top pop-up picks by clicking on the images below. 

 

Bonus tip: Don't forget the logistics! 

To ensure your office summer party goes off without a hitch, remember to plan for any logistics like permits or insurance, weather contingencies and making sure your food and drink providers have enough room to operate.
