Why book your Christmas team building event in June?

1️ Get the date and venue you want

December is a busy time, and the most popular dates and venues fill up fast. If you want to make sure your team event takes place at the perfect location on the perfect day, booking in June gives you the best chance of securing your first choice.

Whether you want a Thursday evening for a cocktail party, a Friday afternoon team experience, or a venue that can accommodate a larger group, early planning ensures you’re not left with limited options.


2️ Secure the best festive activities

Booking early means you have full access to the most popular and engaging Christmas team building activities. At The Teambuilding Company, many of our festive experiences become fully booked by late summer. By securing your event now, you’ll have:

  • A wider choice of activities
  • The opportunity to request customisation or special features
  • Priority for preferred dates and times

3️ Manage your budget with ease

Another major advantage of booking your Christmas team building event now is better control over your budget. Early booking allows:
✅ Access to early bird rates
✅ More time to spread costs
✅ Avoiding the price increases that can come with last-minute arrangements

This helps you stay within budget while still providing a fantastic festive experience for your team.


4️ Build anticipation and boost morale

When your team knows a fun Christmas event is planned, it gives everyone something to look forward to. Announcing your booking early builds excitement and positive energy as the year progresses. It’s a great way to show appreciation for your team’s hard work while reinforcing a sense of connection and community.


5️ Reduce stress during the busiest time of year

December is always hectic, with work deadlines, annual targets and personal commitments all piling up. Getting your Christmas event booked now means one less thing to worry about when the end-of-year rush begins. You can sit back and relax knowing the fun part is already sorted.
