corporate holiday parties in San Gabriel.
A corporate holiday party with carnival entertainment is a year-end gathering where game booths, food stands, music, performers and a Santa station take the place of a banquet, and staff wander between them instead of sitting at assigned tables. Corporate holiday parties in San Gabriel can be held on company property or in a park, and Carnival Fun Experts provides the entertainment while the company provides the site, the meal and the guests.
A San Gabriel employer can use its own lot, or ask the city about Vincent Lugo Park, Smith Park, Plaza Park, Marshall Park or Roosevelt Park. One booth list serves a daytime party with families and an evening party for adults alike.
Booths, games, food stands, performers, music, Santa and Mrs. Claus all come from Carnival Fun Experts. Venue, dinner and drinks stay with the company.
A company party built from carnival parts in San Gabriel.
Guests walk under a holiday balloon arch and onto a row of striped booths, each with a game to play and a shelf of prizes. Down the row, concession stands hand out churros, pretzels, popcorn, cotton candy, nachos, snow cones and caramel apples. Music comes from a DJ or a sound system, and performers circulate through the crowd. Face painters, balloon artists, caricature artists, jugglers, stilt walkers and walk-around magicians are all available for guests who would rather watch than play.
Staff who bring children can line up at the photo-op station for Santa and Mrs. Claus, and inflatables can be added when the guest list includes families. An adults-only evening can drop the inflatables and keep the booths, the music and the photo station. The company chooses the mix and Carnival Fun Experts quotes exactly that mix. On a company lot the layout follows the pavement, and in a park it follows the lawn or the walking path. A company that wants a team angle can set departments against each other at the ring toss and the hoop shot, since every game hands out prizes. The churro stand and the popcorn machine can sit along the same row, so the booths, the snacks and the music share one open space instead of a seated dinner.
