Having an interesting agenda filled with inspiring speakers is an important part of every corporate event. You want attendees to leave and talk about what they learned for weeks afterward. Surprisingly, the entertainment portion of your event has a huge effect on attendees as well. If it’s a hit, they’ll talk about it for years, and if it’s a miss, well, it just might color their view of the whole event. Here are three ideas to help you wow attendees with fun entertainment.

1. Live Band

Whether your audience is made up of millennials, baby boomers, or in between the two, a live band is always a popular choice in corporate event entertainment Charlotte NC. You’ll find talented local bands available at prices that won’t break your budget. This is a great way to end your last function of the event on a high note.

2. Escape Room

Millennials love fun experiences. So, combine team building with entertainment in an escape room activity. Build one in a conference room that matches your event’s theme or uses some of your new products. If your event is smaller, you could bus your attendees to a local escape room and split them into teams with a fun prize for the winning group.

3. Atmospheric Entertainment

This type of entertainment creates a fun atmosphere through small activities for the attendees to experience at various times during the event. Set up a puppy playpen in the lobby with puppies provided by the local animal rescue group. Add a portrait artist in the lunchroom or a piano player belting out show tunes during happy hour. Perhaps your waiters do magic tricks at the tables during the dinner hour.

The entertainment at your next corporate event can make or break the whole experience for the attendees. Adding fun activities like a live band, escape room or small atmospheric experiences will keep them talking after they return home.
