corporate holiday parties in South El Monte.
A corporate holiday party with carnival entertainment moves a company's year-end celebration onto a midway: striped booths and games with prizes, concessions, a DJ, entertainers and a Santa station for staff families. Corporate holiday parties in South El Monte can be held at a company's own property or at a site the company arranges, with a guest list of staff only or staff and their families.
A company in South El Monte can host on its own lot or yard, or ask about the South El Monte Community Center or the Whittier Narrows Recreation Area. Whoever owns or runs the space decides whether a carnival fits, so the company asks before it sets a date.
Carnival Fun Experts supplies the midway. The company supplies the meal, the drinks, the seating and whatever heating the evening calls for.
A South El Monte company party, built as a carnival.
Think of a company yard on a weekday afternoon or evening. Striped booths in red and white and green and white line two sides of it, and the games inside them carry prizes. A DJ plays from a corner, and the food booths serve cotton candy, popcorn, pretzels, nachos, snow cones, churros and caramel apples. A caricature artist draws portraits, a stilt walker moves above the crowd and a walk-around magician works the tables. Entertainers are chosen from the list, in the number the budget allows, and the company decides whether they roam for the whole party or work in set blocks of the afternoon.
When children are invited, the party grows. Jumpers and dry slides go in the open ground, face painters and balloon artists set up near them, and Santa and Mrs. Claus take the photo-op station under the holiday arch. When only adults attend, the children's pieces come off the quote and the booths, the DJ and the entertainers carry the day. The company's caterer, tables and chairs go where the plan leaves room, since dinner and drinks of any kind are the company's side.

Common questions.
Can we hold the party in our own yard?
Yes, if the property owner agrees. Carnival Fun Experts lays the booths out around the space, in a loop, an L or a straight row, after the company shares the dimensions or walks the yard with Carnival Fun Experts. The company decides where its caterer sets up.
Who provides dinner?
The company or its caterer. The concession booths serve snacks, and Carnival Fun Experts does not provide meals or drinks.
How is the quote sized?
By guest count. A party of about 100 to 150 falls in the $4,000 to $10,000 band, and 200 to 400 guests fall in the $10,000 to $25,000 band.
Is the Santa station optional?
Yes. The company adds it when staff bring children, or omits it. If it is on the quote, staff can take pictures on their own phones, or the company can add the photographer Carnival Fun Experts offers.
What if the evening is cold?
Heating is the company's or the venue's job. Carnival Fun Experts does not provide it.
What paperwork can you provide?
Carnival Fun Experts provides the certificate of insurance or the paperwork a permit asks for, once the company says what the site requires.
