A summer party strengthens the community
Most workplaces have implemented an annual summer party by now - and with good reason. Summer parties often aim to bring employees together and make them happy, which helps maintain motivation and job satisfaction across the entire workplace. You should therefore also see the annual summer party as an investment in workplace wellbeing, as a good atmosphere can result in good performance and results.
To ensure a well-executed summer party, it's a good idea to make the employer, HR manager or another employee responsible for the event. When there is a single person in charge of the project who is tasked with thinking about the type of event and how it should be executed, it is guaranteed to run smoothly and make the whole workplace happy.
6 activities everyone will love
When planning how your company's annual summer party will run and what activities to include, it's a good idea to make sure there's room for everyone. It's important that you choose activities where everyone has the opportunity to participate and feel included. For your summer party, you can, for example, organize:
1. A walk in the woods together
Among idyllic nature and fresh air, there are plenty of opportunities for ball games, physical activities, dinner and relaxation. You can bring blankets to create an informal but cozy picnic atmosphere.
There's plenty of room for activities in the summer forest around Bernstorff Castle
2. A treasure hunt in nature
...or an orienteering race in the middle of the city where your employees work together to solve puzzles and explore the area. When employees work together in small teams, they're more likely to strengthen their teamwork and collaboration skills.
3. A themed dinner
Theme dinners leave plenty of room to get creative with costumes and decorations, which also serve as the perfect icebreaker.
4. A movie night under the stars
Weather permitting, a picnic can be followed by a movie under the stars with popcorn, sweets and delicious drinks.
5. Picnic on the beach or in the park
If you're more into ocean views, you can change the picnic to a beach trip. Just like in the forest, you can also include fun activities on the beach that require employees to work together. Bernstorffsparken is also an obvious choice
Bernstorffsparken is the setting for a fantastic summer party
6. A joint barbecue evening
Barbecue is a surefire winner at any summer party, and if you add good music and good company to good food, you're guaranteed a great evening.
