What Does the Average Staff Christmas Party Cost Per Head?
Budget is always a big consideration when planning your team’s Christmas get-together. According to HMRC, you can legally spend up to £150 per employee per year on staff events as a tax-deductible expense. However, for smaller businesses, that allowance may be a stretch, or perhaps some of that budget was used earlier in the year for a summer party or other events. Looking online, the average spend for a Christmas party usually comes in at around £70 per head—a decent chunk of change, especially for small teams.
Now, here’s where the Sounds Familiar Music Quiz comes in as a fantastic, budget-friendly alternative. Tickets to one of our Christmas quiz residencies are just £18 per person, which covers both the event and the venue. That leaves you plenty of room in your budget to add food and drinks if you fancy, all while keeping costs much lower than the average spend. You’ll be treating your team to an unforgettable night out without the hefty price tag.
How does that stack up against a private hire quiz? If you wanted to privately book Sounds Familiar for 30 people, it would work out to £44 per person, just for the quiz. Add venue hire, food, and drinks on top of that, and the costs start to climb.
In some companies, there might not be a formal budget for the Christmas party, leaving staff to pay for their own meal or drinks—which typically costs around £50 per person. At just £18 a ticket, the Sounds Familiar Music Quiz offers brilliant value for money, giving your team a fun-filled, party atmosphere as standard. Why settle for an expensive meal when you can sing, dance, and quiz your way through the festive season?
