Summer Festival Planners
Planning a summer festival for your employees or clients? We’re here to help bring your vision to life.
A corporate summer festival is the perfect way to celebrate your company’s success, reward hard work, and create an unforgettable experience that fosters camaraderie among employees and clients. It’s an opportunity to inspire a more unified and engaged workforce while having fun in the sunshine.
While summer festivals can be held indoors, we recommend embracing the season with an outdoor venue like a racecourse, country estate, polo club, or open field. Outdoor spaces allow for a hybrid setup—tipis, marquees, and stretch tents add festival charm while providing flexibility for unpredictable weather. Enhance the atmosphere with uplighters, flags, banners, and bunting to create a bold and quirky festival vibe.
Swap formal dining for something more relaxed and exciting. Choose from street food stalls offering Asian or Mexican cuisine, or go for classic BBQ and Churrascos. Pair this with seasonal menus and our bespoke drinks and cocktail options for a truly memorable event.
As an experienced corporate event planning company, we’ll ensure every detail is covered, creating a seamless event that delights your guests and celebrates your brand.
