There is no specific rule on the type of venue you should rent for corporate parties, so you're free to choose whatever place suits your vibe. But if you're looking for ideas, here are some options that might inspire you:
Bars and Restaurants – Kick Back and Dine. If you want a chill vibe that allows you and your colleagues to be yourselves and relax, bars and restaurants are sure winners. Rent a space with a private room to separate your group from the crowd. With food and drinks already sorted, you can focus on your goal.
Art Galleries and Museums – Think Outside the Box. It may be a bit unusual to host a corporate dinner at a local museum or gallery, but it works, and many of these cultural spots provide a designated place for special events. You can start with a tour of the place to break the ice and admire the cool art pieces and artifacts inside, and then have dinner after. It shows your team and maybe clients that you made an effort and do think outside the box to impress them.
Rooftop Venues – Dinner Under the Stars. You've got an amazing view and fresh air while savoring mouthwatering local food or sipping cocktails—what a way to make an impression! Whether it's a sparkling cityscape, the glittering city lights, the distant hills, or a dazzling view of the surrounding area, rooftop venues offer a breathtaking backdrop that other places cannot replicate. They can also be glamorous and make any gathering feel like a real treat.
Resorts and Hotels – A Delightful Treat. Resorts and hotels are a favored spot for corporate events, and it's easy to see why. From intimate dining rooms to elegant ballrooms and even access to a bar and restaurant, they usually have numerous spaces to accommodate your group. They also have reliable staff, modern amenities for presentations and visual conferences, and even comfortable accommodation for those staying overnight.
Banquet Halls – Go Big. You can't go wrong with banquet halls and ballrooms for board meetings, corporate functions, and other larger events. These places are made to fit many people, and you can transform them into any look you want based on your theme or purpose.
So, you have a few potential venues, but don't know which one is the best for your next event? We have a few suggestions to keep an eye out for.
Good, quality food is a must. It's a corporate dinner, so everyone will be looking forward to the food. Even if you secure the most sought-after location, if the food is bad, it can put a damper on the whole event. So, pay close attention to the dishes and drinks they serve to ensure happy and satisfied attendees.
Does it offer some level of privacy? You probably won't need a soundproof bunker, but a sense of privacy and exclusivity can go a long way to foster more open and honest conversations among your team and help them relax and disconnect from the usual distractions around them.
How easy is it for everyone to get there? If the location is difficult to get to and requires multiple train and bus transfers, people may become stressed and arrive late, which isn't a great start to the evening. You must think about accessibility for everyone.
A corporate dinner can be a fun and productive experience that brings excellent results to your team and your organization. But before you reap the rewards of the event, you must plan it well to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Define Your Purpose – For starters, why are you having this dinner? Maybe it's to celebrate a win, impress a client, bond with your team, or something else. Whatever it is, knowing the event's purpose can shape many of your decisions as you plan.
Who's Invited? – You don't need to know exactly how many people are coming, but it's good to have a rough headcount early on, as it can impact your choice of venue and budget.
Set a Budget – Be realistic with the budget, whether you're the boss or the person assigned to plan the event. Get a clear budget approved, which covers the venue, food, drinks, and other extras like transportation or entertainment.
Pick a Date and Time – Check the calendar before you book an event space. You won't want the dinner party to clash with major company deadlines, holidays, and other events.
The last thing you'd want when organizing a corporate dinner is to deal with expenses you didn't anticipate. Those unexpected costs can sneak up on you and blow your budget if you're not prepared.
Have you secured your preferred venue?
The corporate dinner venue is one of the biggest expenses you must plan for, so if you haven't locked in a spot yet, now is the time to look around, do your homework, and pick a place that works for your team and budget. Ask about extra fees for cleaning, overtime, venue setup, and other potential hidden charges.
What's on the menu?
Whether it's a formal sit-down dinner in a swanky restaurant or a grand buffet in a banquet hall filled with local delicacies, the menu will affect your overall budget. Check if the venue offers catering packages or if you can bring in a separate caterer of your choice to create a custom menu for your group.
The little things that matter (and cost).
Don't forget all those smaller expenses that can add up faster than you think—the decorations, entertainment, transportation, and all that technical stuff. Make a list of your non-negotiables, things you can do without, and items you can borrow, rent, or buy.
Giggster has an awesome selection of unique spaces that can turn an ordinary company gathering into a memorable affair. Browse our listings today to find corporate dinner venues that are both fun and reflect your brand and company's style. Book the perfect setting today on the Giggster app.
