3. Virtual Christmas party and Event Survey Results

Saturday 17 October 2020

Our recent survey of 145 London corporate event buyers shows the high levels of engagement with virtual events, with 40% of party organisers currently exploring Virtual Christmas Party options and the majority of the other companies still undecided on their end of year celebration plans.

In the wider London events market, 96% of companies had already held a virtual event (being defined as being more than a team Zoom or Teams get together), with internal conferences being the clear leader and around a third of companies also staging client-based virtual events.

Respondents were also asked about their plans for staging a virtual Christmas or end of year events for employees, with 39% currently exploring options for such an events and 46% yet undecided as to their plans.The survey only found one company that had already booked a virtual Christmas Party, since most had been awaiting the clarity which we now all have.  

There is now little doubt that there will be hundreds of virtual celebrations delivered throughout December, with well over 50% of companies that staged live parties last year likely to book an online celebration over the coming weeks.

Here at Venue Search London, we believe the key to a successful Virtual Christmas Party is to create a short, engaging and interactive event, combined with a posted gift box to include drinks and edible treats for attendees to enjoy whilst online.

We love working with our clients to create bespoke and spectacular events; and this year is no different.  Just because we are unable to host your guests at a live venue, it doesn’t mean that we can’t create some Christmas magic in the virtual world, using the digital skills of our experienced Story Studio team of event producers.

Combining our joint creativity, expertise and knowledge, we are delighted to bring an exciting and diverse series of festive packages for you and your teams this December.
