Thinking ahead to the Company Christmas party?
Yes, it IS that time of year again.
But this time it’s going to be different…….
Will you say Yes?
Yes, to Style, quality, entertainment, live band or DJ music and dancing!
You and your colleagues could be cruising the waters on a private or shared Melbourne Boat Cruise. Nice.
Here are the top 5 ways to plan your event!
1. Sort out your guest list
It is important to know how many guests will be attending your event. This will assist the tour operator and events team to plan the best night for your group.
Most Party Boat cruises are happy to arrange a private function for a minimum of 100 people. If your group is smaller a shared experience with other groups is an option. Why not join a few other groups, you never know who you’re going to meet!
2. What is your Budget?
We all know that Christmas can be a time to spend up big or keep a lid on it!
A Christmas Boat Cruise offers an all-inclusive package, so you know up front the costs and the inclusions for the night.
Christmas Boat Cruises offer catered All You Can Eat finger food, Beer, wine and soft drinks, live music from the House DJ / Live band and a fun, festive atmosphere!
3. Choose the tour company that’s right for you
With all the hustle and bustle of the festive season it can be impossible to plan everything yourself!
Choose an events / tour company specialising in Yarra River Cruises, Party Boats and Christmas functions who work with you to arrange the small details such as dietary requirements, boarding and disembarking information and accessibility and the big details such as catering, drinks package and of course the Boat that you will set sail on!
Hint: read the reviews from past customers, view the images of the boats, and use social media to do your research!
4. What entertainment or music is on offer?
A party is not a party without music! A key factor of making your Christmas Boat Cruise a success is ensuring there is professional music with a quality working sound system.
When you decide on a tour company ask them about what band they have booked for your event, which DJ and what type of music they will be playing. Christmas Party Boat Cruises offer a variety of music options with Bands and DJs welcoming requests from all eras of music!
5. Pick Your Transport
It is vital that your guests arrive in time to board your Melbourne Boat Cruise! It would be such a shame to leave someone on the docks while you sail off into the sunset!
Consider arranging: a Party Bus to transfer your group from a central location to your Christmas Party Cruise dock, arranging a central meeting place to gather before your cruise to ensure your group is together before boarding and have a contact list to ensure you can locate anyone running late!
After your Christmas function, you and your guests may want to hit the town!? Plan a pre booked entry to a nightclub / venue to ensure you have somewhere that can accommodate your group!
Some Christmas Party Cruise tour companies will assist you in choosing and making a Guest List booking for access to after party venues.
