In this blog post, we'll explore the very best party themes for your End of Year party. Themes that extend beyond the traditional Christmas festivities, offering a fresh perspective on corporate celebrations.

Step into the magical world of Narnia with Sororio Events

Winter Themes

Embracing the enchanting allure of winter will always remain a seasonal favourite. But sadly, revelling in the Christmas Spirit with your colleagues often includes the habitual  lukewarm white wine or overdone roasties. So, why not revamp the occasion with something much more special... 

Staying on theme, dive into the magic of a Winter Wonderland for your annual event, complete with snow machines, igloos, themed cocktails and more. Taking the off-piste traditional Christmas party route, this wintery idea remains flexible seeing as it will be fit for pre- and post- festive season.  

Or, why not transport your team to the mystical World of Narnia, evoking childhood favourites with magic and mythical creatures, frosty forests, snow sleighs and even your own White Witch! An opportunity for those who love themes and fancy dress, this is a way for your colleagues to go beyond just bringing out the 20 year old overdone Christmas jumper.

For a touch of Alpine elegance, imagine a warm chalet ambiance with a log fire, snowflakes falling, skis fresh off the slopes & mulled wine in the making. A wooden bar and outdoor heaters fit the bill for this theme, followed by cheesy classics and Vin Chaud to get you into the Aprés Ski spirit! Don’t forget your Salopettes. 

Nothing screams elegance and sophistication more than a Casino table

Black Tie

For larger corporate functions, nothing exudes elegance quite like a Black Tie affair. Celebrate annual successes and achievements with sophistication. Opt for a White Party, where an ice-themed extravaganza unfolds with sculptures, snow machines, and a glossy dance floor.

Alternatively, transport your guests to the roaring twenties with a Great Gatsby theme—complete with flapper dancers, champagne towers, and the timeless allure of 1920s music. Or, stick to the ever-enjoyed and very classic Casino Black Tie event, featuring a red carpet, awards ceremonies, Casino tables and plenty of winnings!  

Forever a winner at any given party, treat your colleagues to a night of 80s sing-a-long!

Disco Fever

For those seeking a departure from the traditional, embrace the infectious energy of the '80s with a Disco Fever theme. An 80s-themed bash guarantees a night of lively fun, featuring disco balls, dance-worthy tunes, and the iconic fashion of the era. Consider a dedicated 80s band, complete with disco dancers and a light show, or go all out with an 80s Fancy Dress party. Picture an Abba tribute band, iconic cocktails, perhaps a Silent Disco or even a karaoke session for a night that reverberates with the spirit of the '80s…Nothing will beat the joys of an 80’s Work Bash!

Barbenheimer - so 2023!

From sparkling pink extravaganza sequin walls to fostering a scientific-esque theme, get your colleagues to embrace the themes of the year for fancy dress to really make this seasonal event stand out amongst previous years! From beautiful make-up artists or glitter facepaint, a reminiscent nod to Barbie's iconic style, to moody, scenic whiskey mobile bars, where you’ll most definitely find Cillian Murphy lurking - Deck out the venue for something different this year!
