Plan your 2018 company outing: secure the best dates now!
When is the best time to plan a company outing? Those in the know plan their company outing right now, as almost all dates from spring / summer 2018 are still available. While Germany and Europe are currently almost exclusively following the trend of the annual Christmas party, some other companies are already thinking about next year and, with it, their company outing or a larger company trip.
Book your company outing early and reap the rewards
The best dates for the company outing
are secured by companies when they book early. The most popular dates, such as May and June, get booked up quickly. Although agencies and destinations have plenty of capacity, larger companies, public authorities, departments and other groups in particular should book their company outing early, as buses or other transfer options sometimes also need to be booked.
Popular ideas for an outdoor company outing
As every year, the company outing
is intended primarily to motivate employees and provide a change of scene at most companies. Therefore, the most suitable options are company outing ideas
, which are away from city centres or places familiar to employees. A trip to the vineyards, for example, is just the right thing. Or, for those who prefer more action, hop on quads and e-bikes and find themselves in a real off-road adventure
that outshines everything experienced before. Trips to farms are also particularly popular with customers, as they evoke a real love of the countryside
among participants and are above all active. In summer, a beach party
by the lake is ideal for helping employees really unwind. This makes it easy to forget everyday life, while also creating team-building moments.
Popular ideas for an indoor company trip
Since Germany and our neighbouring countries are often blessed with the most extreme weather, ideas for an indoor company trip
are also growing in popularity. The art is to give familiar activities such as climbing or laser games a new twist. Participants can compete in real championships, and simply “doing something together” becomes a thing of the past. Rather, the focus is on togetherness combined with subtle team event activities. A shared sculpture workshop or a culinary barbecue evening are also particularly popular activities. Anyone planning a company trip early, for example for January or February, is well advised to rent a proper chalet and have a fondue evening
does. Taking a walk together in the countryside beforehand and then enjoying time together by the fireplace are real motivators for teams.
