I can now announce that we have our very own Singing Waiters evening event! This during-dinner surprise is a welcome addition to the Creative Team Events portfolio. The format with undercover chefs and waiters (and even planted guests) eventually revealing themselves as amazing West End singers is a winner every time. Event organisers beware! There are [Continue Reading]

Hot Lunch Date With Crashing Waiters

Out of Africa Themed Dinner Entertainment

Before the guests could blame these sensations on alcohol, our African drummers and dancers burst into the hotel foyer playing and dancing, and led the stunned guests into [Continue Reading]
Crashing Waiters for Dinner and Evening Entertainment
About 15 years ago, I saw the introduction of a fabulous surprise dinner entertainment called ‘singing waiters’. First in London, then quickly spreading to other regions, various forms of singing waiters were to be found in corporate dinners everywhere. The concept was, and still is, effective. Waiters actually turn out to be opera singers, and dinner [Continue Reading]

Activities that Culminate in an After-Dinner Performance

This provides a great focus for a teambuilding activity, provides an uplifting finale and avoids additional and expensive evening entertainment options. We have designed our music-based team activities to have this popular format option, including Urban [Continue Reading]
Strictly Come Dancing Team Building

As we get many enquiries about the format of this option, I thought I would take a ‘step-by-step’ run through (if you pardon the pun) of how our most recent Strictly Team Dancing session worked in practice. In our central London venue, [Continue Reading]
