Corporate Hospitality at Christmas

Since our last blog about Santa Grotto's in stores in August Newgate thought we probably may as well start talking about Christmas now. Particularly with many businesses looking to find different and unusual ways to entertain clients and potential clients at Christmas as well as their colleagues to thank them for their efforts during the year.

Companies in the US tend to be more generous to clients sending out personal gifts, such as items from Tiffanys, but we suspect in the UK this year even the Bankers will be looking to find ways to economise on Christmas events for their clients, although not wishing to cancel but perhaps look at ways to get additional value and come up with different themes.

Why not consider a client visit to a Christmas market in perhaps Germany or Estonia, travel by Eurostar or plane, a couple of hours in the market, followed by Christmas luncheon and return.  Or perhaps champagne reception and pastries at the fabulous new hotel at St Pancras, followed by Eurostar to Paris, perhaps fit in an hour or so of site seeing followed by lunch and return to the UK.   For those extra special clients perhaps include an overnight stay at a 4* hotel ( with partners) and host your Christmas corporate event in Paris, Barcelona or Rome, this will then allow you to invite those important overseas clients and business contacts.

Whatever ideas you may be thinking about for a corporate Christmas event why not drop www.newgatetravel.co.uk a quick email with your initial ideas and leave it to them.
