Holiday 2026
Corporate holiday party ideas for 2026.
Ten ideas for a company holiday party that goes beyond dinner and an open bar, from chair massage and headshots to a fully styled wellness event.
1. Turn the party into a wellness experience
Style the room and let guests move between stations: chair massage, a glow bar, a headshot studio, IV hydration. It works as a thank-you because every guest gets something done for them. See how a wellness event works.
2. Chair massage
Licensed therapists give ten to fifteen minute seated massages. It needs a corner of the room, power is not required, and the line moves quickly.
3. Massage chairs for larger groups
For a hundred guests or more, add a lounge of full-body massage chairs next to the therapists so nobody waits long.
4. Headshots with makeup touch-ups
Most employees have an outdated photo on LinkedIn and the company site. A makeup artist and photographer fix that during the party, and the photo gets used all year.
5. A glow bar
A licensed esthetician offers express facials and skin consults, something most guests rarely book for themselves.
6. IV hydration
Staffed by licensed nurses, with every guest screened first and taking part optional.
7. A guided group reset
A short group breathwork and meditation session to close the night, with each guest setting one intention for the new year.
8. A wellness marketplace
Invite local makers and wellness brands to set up tables, or give every guest a curated gift to take home.
9. Styled decor
Lounge seating, linens, florals and warm lighting change how a conference room feels. Decor is included in every event we produce.
10. Include remote staff
Ship a self-care kit ahead of time and run a live guided session online, so remote staff take part instead of watching a stream.

Holiday party questions
What is a good alternative to a traditional office holiday party?
A wellness event. Instead of another dinner and open bar, guests move between chair massage, a glow bar and a headshot studio in a room styled for the season.
How much should we budget per person for a holiday party?
Many companies plan roughly $75 to $250 per person. A wellness experience for 30 guests starts at $6,500, about $215 per guest, and replaces much of the entertainment budget.
What are good holiday party ideas for a small team?
For teams of 10 to 30, a styled wellness afternoon with two stations, such as chair massage and a glow bar, feels personal and fits a modest budget. A short guided group session works well as a close.
What are good virtual holiday party ideas for remote teams?
A live guided session online, with a self-care kit shipped to each person ahead of time, gives a remote team a shared experience that is not another quiz on video.
Can we plan a holiday party without alcohol at the center?
Yes. A wellness experience gives the party a focus that does not depend on the bar, which suits mixed groups and teams who want a more inclusive celebration.
