Lime Venue Campaigns to save Christmas

Lime Venue Portfolio, part of the Expotel Collection, has joined the campaign to put Christmas parties back on the agenda. 

The UK’s largest Christmas celebration provider joins the groundswell of industry opinion which claims that companies have forgotten the benefits of holding a festive gathering for employees. Over 100 Lime Venue assets across the UK will connect with local businesses through direct marketing and media channels with information on festive event benefits in the run-up to Christmas.

The annual Christmas party has been under scrutiny the past three years. The recession has been paramount to the party down turn, leaving managers weighing up the pros and cons. However, Lime Venue Portfolio is urging bosses and managers consider the benefits to their workforce: the strengthened team environment and enhanced productivity which an annual party can produce.

Louise Amphlett, Head of Lime Venue Portfolio said:

“As the UK’s biggest provider of Christmas celebrations, we feel it is our duty to remind companies how they can keep staff morale high with a festive party. Our Christmas 2010 data suggests that corporate bookers see fun and value as the two most important Christmas party elements. Companies want to see their budgets go further while giving their employees a night to remember.”
