Destination events are popular among many companies. They are commonly held to mark memorable occasions, get work done collaboratively and elevate the company’s culture.
There are many aspects that are involved when planning one of these events. Luckily, there are event management teams like Destination Management Company Copenhagen that can help to create your ideal event.
Tips when event planning
Regardless of how big a team is planning an event abroad, it is always a good idea to have an overview of how to prepare in leading up to the occasion.
Here are a couple steps that can provide a structure when organising this event:
- First and foremost, you will need to decide on a budget. Keep in mind that there will be multiple mini events when there so it may help to break up the budget into several smaller amounts.
- Secondly, it is all about the right location. At this point, you may have a rough idea about what type of event this will be. Keep in mind that both the immediate and surrounding environment should be appropriate. Ensuring that there are additional forms of entertainment and necessities nearby will be sure to make your event a success.
- Reach out to your hosting venue or a local independent event planner. Collaborating with professionals on this can help to grab you a better deal, streamline the logistics, and suggest some unique ideas to add flare to your event.
- Speaking of logistics, make sure to have the details of your flight, transportation and hotel bookings all lined up. Prebooking a trusted shuttle service and arriving early can go a long way.
Pro tip
Plan any mini events on the concept of sustainability. Eco-tours, local food and reusable cups in a welcome goody bag can go a long way.
