Andrea and Laura have been working on some great ideas for BP, who are planning a corporate event for 150 staff this Christmas. The Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre is a excellent venue and we have been putting together several creative ideas which combine seasonal entertainment with dynamic team building.

There is no doubt the BP staff work hard and deserve a fun event and one of our hottest ideas is to create a Winter Warmer theme, featuring flickering flames and a cosy glow from a huge virtual fireplace.

There will certainly be lots of laughs during the Stuff the Turkey race and the bucking Rudolph the Reindeer competition but we think the high point of the evening’s entertainment should be The Dojo Drummers, a new taiko group. Taiko drumming is a highly visual and exciting art form which never fails to thrill. Afterwards the guests would be invited to have a go at drumming for themselves, which should be just as entertaining in its own way.

As an alternative, we have also been working on an All the Fun of the Fair idea in conjunction with Red Pepper Productions in Dundee. We would have a wild time decorating the venue to generate a real wow factor and then the BP staff would participate in all sorts of traditional fair events such as coconut shies and candy floss creations but all tailored to help a new team gel effectively for the future.
