Finally, the time had come. On Friday, 3 February 2017, we blew the roof off at SnowWorld during an event for 600 employees. What all goes into making this possible?<\/p>\n
An important factor: the location<\/strong><\/h4>\nAround mid-November 2016, we were tasked by our client to organise a kick-off event for 600 people in February 2017. Given the relatively short timescale, we had to put our foot down to arrange this event down to the last detail. The first priority was finding a suitable venue. The location for this event had to be suitable for both hosting the official part of the proceedings properly, and also for the informal part, the party afterwards, to take place in the same location. This party was also a reward for the enormous effort of all employees.<\/p>\n
Organising an event for 600 employees | The theme<\/strong><\/h4>\nThe theme for this event was \u2018Apr\u00e8s-Ski\u2019. A fun theme that allowed us at goMICE to fully express our creativity. After several site inspections with our client, SnowWorld was chosen.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Our collaboration with SnowWorld has certainly been fantastic! We were able to work very efficiently, which was most welcome given the time pressure.<\/p>\n
Organising an event for 600 employees | We'll think of the details<\/strong><\/h4>\nWe have arranged everything down to the smallest details. This includes the regular components such as technology and food & beverages, but we always go a step further. Together with a colleague, we are the permanent points of contact for this relationship and are also present ourselves during the event to ensure everything runs smoothly.<\/p>\n
Naturally, the branding was meticulously organised. Welcome flags lined the entire driveway, banners were displayed both inside and out, and we even placed a Total car outside. Furthermore, we also arranged the following, among other things, to ensure everything ran smoothly.<\/p>\n
\n- The parking spaces neatly reserved<\/li>\n
- Parking attendants were deployed to coordinate all of this.<\/li>\n
- There were 10 security guards on standby (safety first!)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
After a check by us on all parts, the event could begin!<\/p>\n
The start of the event for 600 employees<\/strong><\/h4>\nUpon arrival, fire pits were set up outside to provide a warm welcome, and we from goMICE were ready for the cloakroom and registration. Everyone received a \u2018glowing in the dark\u2019 wristband, so we could make them light up nicely with blacklight later on. In addition, they were also intended as a way for security to recognise that the correct participants were entering and leaving.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Given that we also had a fancy dress competition, most people had dressed up thematically. One looked even better than the other!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The best-dressed man and woman would later be presented with a travel voucher worth \u20ac175. We at goMICE had made these available.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Once inside, participants were welcomed with a drink and the management were also dressed in style. Fluorescent ski suits and lederhosen were also their outfits. The participants thought it was fantastic that the management had also gone to such lengths.<\/p>\n
The official part of the event<\/strong><\/h4>\nThe official part of the event soon got underway. The presentations, delivered from various points in the hall, were supported by, among other things, enormous LED screens. A very effective way to reach everyone. At the end of the presentations, the signal for the party to begin was given with a huge confetti cannon! The party could start and the buffets were opened. From approximately 15 serving points, spread across the entire exclusive venue hire, guests could sample all sorts of dishes and drinks.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
From mashed potato buffets to German sausages, and from hamburgers to pulled pork stalls! There was an abundance of choice for everyone!<\/p>\n

Furthermore, a ski simulator was also set up for the real sports enthusiasts.<\/p>\n
