Christmas Party 2024 Wrap Up!

Christmas Party 2024 Wrap Up!

It’s Christmas party time! The team at In the Booth looks forward to late November and the six week onslaught of Christmas parties! It’s a great time to look back on the year that’s been and catch up with some of our awesome customers who rebook with us every year. It’s an honour to receive Christmas party enquiries with our customers stating “the staff have demanded In the Booth come back again!”. This is not a privilege we take lightly!

In addition Christmas party season brings with it all the creativity and fun of festive season themes. We see everything from traditional Christmas colours to themes that add a yuletide twist! Our glitter backdrop range certainly gets a workout during the festive season. We love when our clients see the end result of their custom options all come together in the magic of their instant prints.

Our return customers tells us that nothing breaks the ice at corporate get togethers like the booth. It can be challenging to find activities that appeal to workplaces of all ages and backgrounds. In this day and age everyone understands a photobooth = fun! You’ll find tables and departments mixing like nowhere else! Even the photobooth queue is an awesome environment. With nothing to do but stand in line, you’ll find co-workers chatting away like they haven’t seen each other all year!

It can be near on impossible to find an appropriate guest gift for company functions. After all, how many pens do they need?! Photo booth prints are one of those unique souvenirs that don’t get thrown away. We have customers collecting their Christmas party prints for years! It makes for a great company history to look back on.

Closing 2024 with a big Christmas Party thank you!

Finally, thank you to all our amazing corporate customers for 2024! We’ve had an awesome timing boothing it up with you this year. To our small business customers especially, we are so thankful for your custom. From one small business to another, Merry Christmas!

Custom Photobooth Hire

Custom photobooth hire is one of our favourite things at In the Booth. We’ve worked with brands big and small to deliver photo booth experiences custom made for their event.

We have over fifteen years’ experience in events of all sizes. You can have the best idea in the world but that doesn’t mean it’s right for the busy event space. Activations need to be inherently simple for guests. Why? Events are busy places and guests have their attention pulled in all directions. Moreover it’s important to remember the KISS method – Keep It Simple Stupid!

Our team is on hand to listen to the purpose for your activation and help you find the best system for our booth to fit within that space. For example, is your event on a short timeframe? We may suggest multiple booths to ensure smooth traffic flow in the time available. Is your goal to capture video or photo content? In addition we know how to program the booth experience to ensure you capture the content you’re after.

Custom Photobooth Hire Branding Packages

Booth branding is one of the most popular additional services we offer in our custom photobooth hire range. Our booths are literally a huge interactive billboard at your event! Better yet, guests walk away with your brand instantly printed in their hands. There simply aren’t any other event experiences out there with such fantastic brand retention!

We offer a number of branding packages that are suitable for all budgets. Our packages include external branding on the booth itself, a customised instant print and touch screen. Everywhere your guests look they’ll be looking at your brand!

Last but not least our Design department works with you to create graphics that expand your event theme and ensure the booth is a perfect fit. We understand that a seamless transition is required for your customers. Your custom photobooth hire will look like it was built especially for your event!

A photo booth is a great way to kick the party off and get guests involved. Uni students love jumping into the booth to grab a quick photo as they head into their evenings celebrations. Consider placing a booth at the entrance to your function if space is at a premium. A foyer or lobby area photo booth gives festivities a red carpet arrival feel!

    Christmas Party Ideas

    CHRISTMAS PARTY PLANNING INSPIRATION

    Christmas parties and end of year parties take up most of our social calendar throughout November and December. Truth be told, Australians love a reason to celebrate and let our hair down especially at the end of the working year. The Christmas Party is often the social event of the working season, as you gather with your peers to celebrate the year that was. Photo booths and Christmas parties go hand in hand.

    In the Booth celebrates hundreds of Christmas and end of year party’s right across Australia with our photo booths. We love nothing more than joining you to celebrate the year that was for your workplace. Photo booths are increasingly popular at all events, however Christmas parties and end of year parties are some of our favourite reasons to celebrate. Our booths are ever popular at Christmas functions and end of year events and it’s a great way to break the ice for the evening.

    Christmas Party Ideas & Planning Tips

    • Start planning early: While December may seem like AGES away, we guarantee it’ll be here before you know it! Christmas Parties and end of year parties are the highlight of most work social calendars. You don’t want to leave your planning to the last minute.
    • Be realistic: The work ‘budget’ always comes up when planning your Christmas party or end of year party. Be realistic about what your expenses will be. Consider what additional extras you will be able to have on the night. 
    • Make sure you book in advance: November and December and very busy times of year for events and celebrations. Some venue spaces will book out far in advance. Make sure you secure your date for your Christmas Party to avoid missing out!
    • Choose the right venue: Choosing the right venue can be pivotal in your successful Christmas party. You want to make sure you are choosing the perfect event space to host your Christmas party. Ensure there’s enough space for guests and full facility available for the event.
    • Listen to what the people want: Your team should be able to tell you their Christmas party ideas without ‘telling you’ what they would like to see at their Christmas Party. See what additional things may take their fancy. Perhaps it will be particular food, a theme for the party or maybe something a little additional to kick the party off. May we suggest a photo booth? 😉

    Corporate Event Entertainment

    Corporate events aren’t just your usual Christmas party or ‘end of year’ office party. Throughout the year, companies host many corporate events, corporate functions and corporate milestones and celebrations. Corporate events range from seminars, brand activations, business meeting and lunches, awards evenings right through to trade shows and anything in between. While getting together with your workmates and peers can seem a little daunting – we promise to help break the ice with some corporate event entertainment fun!

    Here’s a few reasons to consider when having a photo booth at your next corporate event:

    Photos are the ideal corporate event entertainment

    Capture the night on film! With so much going on during your event, you won’t need to worry about taking photos – guests will have full use of the photo booth for the duration of your event. Our high quality images are ideal for company newsletters, Christmas cards, head shots…the list goes on! It’s hard to find the perfect take home gift that’s appropriate for the corporate function environment. Enter photo booth prints and all your event planning problems are solved!

    Marketing Opportunities

    What better way to market your brand that with a take home photo from the booth! All our corporate customers will receive a custom print for their booking, meaning guests will walk away with your brand. In addition the memory of the celebration is sure to take pride of place on their fridge for years to come. Be it a company milestone or award night, our team create artwork that’s a perfect match. You’re welcome to provide your own specifications and graphics or our design team will create something from scratch for you.

    Making Memories

    Photo booths are perfect for capturing memories. Treat your team and guests with some fun in the booth to encourage team bonding. You’ll find your various teams are keen to get some #worklife memories together. One thing we often overlook that many lifelong friendships are established at work! Give your team the opportunity to celebrate these and let their hair down in the booth. Just check out our Instagram for our most recent event action.

    It’s Cost Effective

    Photo booths are a photographer and entertainer all in one! Our photo booths are always a hit at corporate events and corporate functions providing entertainment while capturing the event on film. This saves the need for an additional photographer. A formal photographer will capture just that – formal shots. The booth offers a completely different experience for your guests. They’ll have a pile of fun and relaxed photos on their desk the following day, guaranteed!

    It’s the ideal Ice Breaker

    Jumping in a photo booth with your boss to pull silly faces sound like the perfect way to break the ice? We agree! While corporate functions and corporate events can seem very ‘serious,’ something nostalgic and playful like a photo booth are sure to help your guests shake off any nerves. We’ve all been to those corporate functions that make us wish we were anywhere else. Add a photo booth into the mix and your guests will be saying it was the best work event ever.

    Social Media Exposure

    Social media is such an important part of marketing. Sharing images from your event via social media is an amazing way to share your brand. In the Booth photo booths will allow your guest to download their booth photos via our app to be shared across their personal social media platforms. Advertise your hashtag for the event or add some friendly competition amongst workmates with a photo challenge!

    Something a Little Extra…?

    Extra special event or super important activation on the cards? Make sure you check out our branding options. The booth is the prettiest billboard you’ll find not alongside a highway! The sky is the limit with customisation. We can offer design advice in regards to what will make the biggest impact at your event. Please send through your enquiry for a customised quote. We’ll deliver your brand with a bang!
