Outside of the Race Carnival at Flemington, the most popular parties probably happen in the Workplace, which is a great way for all team members to get involved, and to socialize with their colleagues away from their desk. A great team bonding experience. We have put our heads together to put this handy guide together on how to host your very own Melbourne Cup Office Party. First up is the Venue! The easier option is to have it in the office, which will also work out cheaper that going to a venue, and give it more of a private corporate setting. All you need is a TV or Screen to view the race(s) throughout the day. (Remember, this is main focus as to why you had the party in the first place, you don’t want to be answering to HR afterwards). If you’re office is the preferred option, think about the space for people to float about, and mingle, will you be inviting guests for the offices next door, or other departments in the building, and don’t forget to allow space for food & drinks.

Make sure to have enough refreshments alongside the food. If you are providing alcohol on the day which most companies do, then have your HR department send out a reminder outlining the company’s standards in terms of afterpay alcohol Australia and expected behavior.

Now that the food and drinks are sorted, it is nearly time to get excited and get in the spirit of celebrating the festivities. Have you thought about dressing up the office to create an at the races atmosphere, white table cloths, some flowers for the tables, balloons, and even some fascinators for the ladies. Next get the memo out to the team, that it is time to get dressed up for Race Day at the office. The Race(s) Whether you allow the team to watch most of the races, or just the Main Race, please make sure to check that the TV(s) are working, and that you have the correct channel. A good way to get the atmosphere is let the team watch the race before the Melbourne Cup, it gets them talking and away from the desk. You can also use this time if you are running a sweepstakes to get a chart up the person’s name beside their horse.
