For your staff, the Christmas party is likely to be the highlight of the working year. They will look forward to it throughout the rest of the year, wondering what you have got planned for them to celebrate together. Here are some ideas to make it memorable: 

• Don’t set too tight a budget. Remember, this is an incentive. Your staff should know they are appreciated.
• Make sure you have enough food and drinks. There is nothing worse than running out. If you staff members will have to buy their own drinks, make sure this is clear to them. 
• Consult with your staff. Ask them what they would like to do and take everyone’s opinion into account. A party should be a treat for everybody. 
• Engage a party planner. If you don’t have time to plan a good party yourself, work with someone who does. This is a guaranteed way to have an amazing party.
