Christmas is everyone’s favourite time of year, so it’s great that the celebrations for the big day keep getting closer to Halloween and further from Boxing Day. From the middle of November onwards, expect to see crowds of co-workers piling into entertainment venues, booking up community centers, and filling the bars across Ipswich.

Obviously, everyone looks forward to all of these activities and will extend the Xmas joy across the winter months in Suffolk. So, for those savvy managers and bosses looking to make this the best Christmas ever for their employees, here are a bunch of winning moves that’ll undoubtedly be crowd-pleasers.

Xmas Activities in the Office

There’s nothing quite as striking as being in your place of work but seeing it transform into a house of fun. One day of Xmas activities and some general relaxing vibes is a classic move because it so often proves to be popular. You can run a stack of activities, including a quiz, a party, running Secret Santa, or creating a big Xmas spread of food and drink.

Keeping in the classic swing of things, hosting a game of bingo with prizes to be won will also grab their attention. Bingo can be a festive addition to Christmas celebrations. With its numbered balls, cheeky calls and plenty of opportunities for a laugh, it’s an easy way to bring everyone together. Add some suitably seasonal prizes, and you’ve got all the ingredients for a fun-filled festive game.

Plus, modern bingo has proven to be very adaptable. In the world of online bingo platforms, different themes are all over the place. 80s Bingo, Britain’s Got Talent Bingo, Mystic Meg Bingo, and even Age of the Gods Bingo are there, showing that the game can work with just about any setting or theme. Why not Crimbo Bingo?

Venturing Out into the Suffolk Wilds

Team building and Xmas go hand-in-hand, and luckily, Suffolk is loaded with great ways to simply book in, sit back, and watch the team enjoy themselves. Go To Events have many options for indoor occasions – given the weather – including the game show and inflatables Under Pressure, the Squid Game-themed Quid Games, Betrayers, and Master of the Tasks. Of course, if you want to brave the cold, there’s also the Soap Box Derby.

Alternatively, combine the bars with the games and book in at one of the many game bars in Ipswich. Boom Battle Bar is a favorite in Suffolk, but there’s also Blast from the Past and Press Start Gaming Lounge on the menu. That said, if your office prefers something a bit classier, Theatre Royal and Snape Maltings have shows on across the Xmas period.

Depending on when you host your Xmas extravaganza, a certain spooky tour may actually be more relevant than all of the snowflakes and Santas. The Ghostly & Macabre Tour in Bury St Edmunds is 90 minutes of visiting the most haunted parts of the county, complete with retellings of horrifying legends. Plus, it’d be quite the power play to pivot your Xmas party into one more suited to Halloween.

Whether you stay in the office or venture out this November, December, or perhaps even in January, Suffolk’s got exactly what you need to throw a legendary Xmas party.
