The Events Calendar For 2017 – Ideas & Inspiration
THE EVENTS CALENDAR FOR 2017 – IDEAS and INSPIRATION
As the year begins, events agencies and event professionals at venues and agencies will start to flesh out what key events to plan for in 2017. Specialist theming experts at Eventologists have been working on ideas that you may want to consider within the calendar of events to include in amongst the usual obligatory ones such as the annual conference and gala dinner, Christmas and awards dinners!
Valentine’s Day event ideas or corporate events around valentines.
Cheese aside, Valentine’s event themes always conjure up bland ideas of reds, hearts and love signs and most people feel that Valentines isn’t very corporate so avoid it. Let’s face it, it’s an important calendar date; the first after Christmas and it’s hard to ignore! Instead we suggest ideas that can complement valentines such as a stunning Glam and Glitz themed event, a burlesque themed event, a Venetian themed event such as a masked ball or masquerade! Take a look at our images to inspire you!
The arrival of Spring or Easter – venue dressing ideas
Spring is a great time to hold events and options and ideas are so wide and varied as regards to room dressing and venue decor. A Spring Garden Theme, an uplifting Japanese Garden Theme full of blossom trees and a four seasons theme! A return back to children’s classics such as Alice in wonderland theme, Mad Hatters theme or Enid Blyton’s secret garden – are all popular ideas for around spring time
Summer solstice – summer themed events
We then move to the summer where things get hotter and bolder! Colours are bolder and brighter, themes are wilder and people are a lot more prepared to test new theming ideas in the summer! Carnival is always a good choice for summer corporate events! However as the popularity of festivals have grown in the last few years with festivals such as Camp Bestival, Download, Reading festival and Glastonbury being the leading the way as festival favourites, festival themed events or outdoor themed events have become a firm favourite as an alternative to colourful themed summer events
Autumn events
A beautiful time of year as the leaves change colour and an important time for corporates organising award dinners and conferences. Venues U.K. wide are busy delivering and managing conferences. Consider colours that work with the season such as gold, rusts, dark greens. Themes can range from Enchanted Woodland to cirque de soleil to just simple glam options with crystal or light up table centres. If you’d like a more fun casual theme what about Oktoberfest themed event – a Bavarian themed event which always gets people in a party mood?
Halloween and into November
As the nights turn darker, more sinister and eerie themes enter the corporate calendar. A Halloween themed event need not be conventional – consider a Game of Thrones theme, a Medieval Themed event, a Harry Potter themed event. With so many cultural festivals around this time of year, Around the World Theme and Bollywood Themed events or even Hollywood Bollywood themed events work a treat
As we move into a more immersive and experience demanding society, businesses are being challenged to think outside the box about the timing and the post conference party and activities! We hope that some of these themes may inspire you for your next corporate event party decor!

We have just had our annual awards event and used Eventologists for the venue décor and evening's entertainment, and I can't express how grateful I am. The evening was a huge success! Eventologists did an amazing job in making it what it was and creating the vibe! Jen was lovely and hugely supportive. She captured everything we wanted and communication was exceptional - we know this is key, so I can't thank you enough. We look forward to working with you again!

Eventologists were easy to communicate with, incredibly professional on the setup day and really helpful during pack down. I'd definitely use them again in future.

This was my first time working with an event management company, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. Rita and her team were exceptional—everything was executed beautifully and exactly as I had envisioned. The decorations received so many compliments, and all our guests had a wonderful evening. Thank you for making the event so special!

We recently worked with Eventologists for our Greene King & Belhaven event and they were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The bespoke venue dressing they provided was spot on and really brought our vision to life. Their team was incredibly helpful, friendly, and nothing was too much trouble, they truly couldn’t do enough to help. They were more than happy to go above and beyond and their attention to detail played a big part in making the event a great success. Highly recommended!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Eventologists for our Congress gala dinner, and they were nothing short of exceptional. From the beginning, they embraced our Bridgerton theme with creativity, enthusiasm, and incredible attention to detail - transforming the venue into a breathtakingly elegant space, complete with a stunning floral tunnel that truly wowed our guests. Despite several last-minute changes and back-and-forths with the venue and room location, Rita and her team remained patient, professional, and kind throughout. Their flexibility and calm under pressure made the process so much easier and more enjoyable for us. They didn’t just meet our expectations - they went above and beyond anything we had imagined, bringing our vision to life in the most magical way. We can’t thank them enough and would highly recommend Eventologists to anyone looking to create a truly unforgettable event.

We were under a tight deadline to open a new lounge venue at our Virgin Hotels London Shoreditch property, and Eventologists saved the day! I reached out to them in the last hour to install temporary artificial plants around the top perimeter of the venue for a photo shoot and our grand opening party. They responded to me in such a quick manner and installed the plants overnight! The team loves how they turned out. Thank you Eventologists!

Whatever my vision is for an event, Eventologists always deliver and then some! I've worked with them on three events, one of them was transforming our plain office to an 80s wonderland with a Speakeasy bar! Andrew and the team are a dream to work with and they're SO good at what they do and nothing is ever too much trouble, and if it is - they never make you feel like it is! Would highly recommend!

We have used Eventologists numerous times over the years, and each time they exceed our expectations. Rita and the team have a keen eye for detail and ensure a seamless experience from ideation to execution. Given the scale of our events, the demand for dressing three large rooms in individual themes is always a challenge, however, the feedback from our guests is always very positive, praising what Eventologists have delivered.

Just wow! We used Eventologists Ltd for our staff awards weekends and what an amazing job they did. From start to finish, Andrew was always there to offer support, advise and reassurance. You guys really did bring our vision to life! Thank you!
