Easy Corporate Dinner Party Entertainment Tips and Ideas

June 20, 2021 By blueaven

Okay, we know how much you want your big occasion to be the most memorable date on the calendar, but preparing for that is a whole other game. From decorations and finer details to keeping all guests happy and entertained – where do you even start? While we’re not party planners, you can never go wrong with ensuring you’ve nailed down your entertainment well in advance, catering to all types of tastes, interests and personalities.

So to help you with your process, here are some corporate entertainment ideas that will keep you on the right track, complete with entertainment options to keep smiles on dials.

A note on DIY corporate event entertainment

We hear you – you could just plug in a recommended playlist from Spotify, and away you go, but this is always a bit of a gamble. For example, the genres may not suit, you might end up with an app issue, or your subscription may not cater to eliminating those pesky ads (i.e. you need Premium). Alternatively, you can also opt to have a friend DJ your event and hope for the best, but you’re also relying on their tastes to accommodate your guest list.

Instead of running those risks, we recommend opting for live music or entertainment acts to keep guests tuned in and focused on your overall occasion. Of course, if you’re running a corporate event, this is even more important, and setting the scene is much trickier to do.

Live music acts are the easy, impressionable way to set the scene

Dinner parties and corporate-themed occasions call for high-class gigs that appeal to both the setting and the overall focus for the night. If you’re trying to make a good (or first) impression, this is where your entertainment options will need to stand out.

For this reason alone, we recommend investing in live music act hire – like those available through Blue Avenue Entertainment; choose from an appropriate band – like a duo act, solo performer or even a cover band – to jazz up your night without the stress.

The best part about choosing live performers is that they can be tailored to suit your exact needs, and will go the extra mile to ensure your event is met with fresh, modern, and experienced entertainment.

Tip: Sift through our list to find the perfect band for your big date. We provide high-calibre cover acts and talented performers for a variety of settings, including corporate contexts.

The versatility of a band

Bands tend to hit the mark because they’re able to appeal to so many personalities and tastes, as well as the added edge of delivering something recorded music just can’t do.

Able to bring plenty of atmospheric enjoyment to your event, these acts give guests an all-around experience that won’t quickly be forgotten. Watch the drummer set the beat and guitarists riff on spontaneity as the vocalists set those wicked vocals. It’s right there in the moment, and that’s always something guests love to see.

We used this service for our wedding and hired masterblasters and Jace. They were absolutely fantastic on the day, surpassing our expectations and delivering a brilliant performance throughout the entire day. They along with Anthony were a calm and helpful presence from the get go. Would highly recommend for a wedding day

Watched Downtime performed at a Christmas party I was at, hands down the best Jazz band i've heard in Melbourne. Will use them for my next event :)

Soul City were the entertainment at our work event and they were incredible! The dancefloor was full and the selection of songs were a hit with everyone. We will definitely book them again next year!

Working with Anthony was an absolute breeze. We were privileged enough to have House of Soul play for our wedding and they were beyond fantastic. Ricky, Carla and the band had everyone dancing, engaged and in awe of their talent. Not only are they talented but they are beautiful people. From the moment we got in contact with Anthony we knew we had made a great decision. He had everything under control and was liaising with the venue to ensure a perfect night. We couldn’t recommend enough. We are thinking of the next event we can quickly organise just to do it all again!

My partner and I booked Downtime band for our wedding through Blue Avenue Entertainment in March this year and were absolutely thrilled with them. Anthony (the manager) was very accommodating, friendly and professional, and a very efficient communicator which made the booking process very stress-free which we were so grateful for during our wedding planning! The band were absolutely incredible - really gifted at what they do and they really understood the vibe we were going for - the set list they put together was perfect. So many of our guests gave us feedback on how fantastic the band was, and everyone was up and dancing which really made our night. I’m so glad we decided to book with them and highly recommend them!

We booked a band via Blue Avenue Entertainment for our wedding. I am so glad that we did! Anthony (the manager) was great. He was very organised and easy to communicate with. When the band we had booked cancelled 8 weeks out from the wedding, Anthony very swiftly found a replacement band that were even better than the original! I really recommend booking via Blue Avenue Entertainment. Thanks Anthony!

OMG what a treat it was to have Downtime at a recent wedding I was photographing! Their music was the perfect addition to the reception :) The band members are incredibly talented! They were a hit with the guests and I loved capturing the joy and energy they were giving off. They were also super friendly and easy to work with, making my job as a photographer a breeze! I highly recommend these guys for any events :)
