Top Corporate Event Activities & Corporate Entertainers

There are endless options when it comes to corporate event activities and entertainers. Here are a few of our tried-and-true favorite:

  • Food Tours: If your group wants to get out and explore, a food tour is the perfect way to entertain your corporate group.
  • Photo Booth: A photo booth is not only fun and affordable, but it creates cute, memorable take-home gifts for guest.
  • Build-Your-Own Stations: From charcuterie boards to cakes and more, these small stations are the perfect addition to corporate events.
  • Interactive Meals: The perfect blend of sit-down dinner and hands-on activities.

How to Book Corporate Event Entertainment

Once you’ve found the perfect entertainment idea for your corporate event, the next step is making it happen. With the right process (and the right vendor), it can actually be easy, efficient, and even fun.

medium

1. Clarify Your Event Details

Before reaching out, lock in the basics: date, time, location, group size, and event type. These details help vendors quickly confirm availability and recommend the right experience for your needs.

medium

2. Define Your Goals & Vibe

Are you aiming for connection, celebration, education, or all three? Knowing the desired outcome helps entertainment providers tailor the experience to your company culture and objectives.

medium

3. Request a Proposal or Demo

Most professional vendors will offer a detailed proposal or even a quick demo. Ask for a breakdown of what’s included, timing, setup requirements, and total cost. Bonus points if they send something with a little flair (like us!).

medium

4. Confirm Logistics & Special Requests

Once you’ve chosen your entertainment, it’s time to finalize logistics. Share any dietary restrictions, branding needs, AV questions, or space limitations up front to ensure a smooth experience.

medium

5. Sign the Contract & Sit Back

With everything confirmed, you’ll usually sign a service agreement and submit payment. Then you can relax knowing your entertainment is handled—professionally, reliably, and with personality.
