An investment in your team
Why Christmas parties are so important
The majority of employees rate a good relationship with colleagues as extremely important for their own motivation. A successful Christmas party strengthens exactly that: the team spirit, the bond with the company and the joy of working together. It brings a business year to a worthy close and sets impulses for the new year.
Stronger team spirit – shared experiences in a festive atmosphere bring people together.
Higher employee retention – those who feel valued stay loyal to the team.
Better communication – a relaxed atmosphere breaks down barriers and brings people together.
Integrate new employees – newcomers quickly find their social footing in a casual setting.
Our Christmas party ideas in detail
Would you like to enhance our Christmas party ideas with individual add-on services like soft drinks and snack packages? No problem. Get in touch if you’d like to realize your own visions or combine different offerings. As team building experts, we’ll reliably support you throughout the planning and execution of your celebration.
Festive competitions and creative challenges
Our Christkindl-Cup is the highlight of any Christmas party. Participants face numerous mini games and tricky puzzles to solve as a group. All tasks are accompanied by a festive Christmas theme and promise an exciting afternoon or evening before the holidays.
At the Gingerbread House Building, creativity is the name of the game! Divided into smaller groups, participants engage in a fun competition where the most beautiful gingerbread house is crowned by a jury. Laughter and sweet moments are guaranteed!
SantaCoup is an exciting escape game where you need to thwart the plans of a mad Santa Claus. One thing is certain: more thrills and excitement await you here than at any Secret Santa!
Positive effects of a company Christmas party
A successful corporate celebration during Advent promotes several aspects: it strengthens the team spirit, improves communication and shows appreciation to the entire team. Consistent team building shapes the sense of belonging in companies – and at your Christmas party, you can specifically nurture this awareness.
Onboarding new employees is known to cost time and money. Action-packed Christmas party games can accelerate the integration process in just a few hours! You get to know your new colleagues in a relaxed mood and festive atmosphere from a completely different perspective.

Tax allowance for Christmas parties
From a tax perspective, the following applies: For a maximum of two corporate events per year (including Christmas parties), you may claim 110 euros as a tax-free allowance per employee per event. This covers costs for team events, restaurant dinners and more.
If the expenses exceed the 110-euro threshold, the excess amount is taxable. Don’t forget about travel costs! If individual employees incur additional travel costs to reach the Christmas party, these generally do not count towards the total costs or the allowance. However, you may still reimburse these travel costs tax-free.
Participation in a Christmas party is, like participation in a summer party, covered by statutory accident insurance, provided it takes place within the company framework.
Everything you need to know
The most frequently asked questions about company Christmas parties – answered directly and clearly.
For Christmas parties in November and December, our peak season, we recommend booking at least four weeks in advance. During highly sought-after periods, popular concepts sell out quickly – an early inquiry secures your preferred date.
From creative culinary experiences like Gingerbread House Building to exciting escape formats (SantaCoup) and festive outdoor rallies (XmasXpedition) to the Christkindl-Cup for groups of 10 to 1,000 people – there’s something for every team size and mood.
Yes, The Secret Tomb can be played online or as a flexible hybrid event, where your team explores outdoors and is guided through the puzzles digitally. That makes it a good fit for remote teams and hybrid groups who want to come together for a Christmas party.
Yes, we love tailoring our Christmas party concepts to your themes and values. Whether it’s specific learning goals, a special company theme or particular team dynamics – share your ideas with us, and we’ll integrate them into the program accordingly.
With the optional bad weather insurance, we reserve suitable materials for an indoor alternative from our repertoire for outdoor events – so the evening remains unforgettable even in the rain.
