Office Christmas party ideas, London 2026: quiz, Treachery! and games night

The office Christmas party has one job: get people talking to people they don't usually talk to. Dinner and drinks alone don't do it; the same tables form, the same people leave at nine. Here are the ideas we host in London every December, with what they cost, and the free ones that make any of them work better. The short version is on our Christmas party page. Book by 3 December for a December party.

1. A hosted Christmas quiz

The reliable one. A Get Social host, rounds you can't Google (a picture round about your own company, a music round, Closest To, a Speed Drawing round), and mixing between rounds so the room ends the night knowing more of the office than it started with. The venue supplies the screen and speaker; we bring everything else.

Price: £950, 2 hours, one host, up to 60 people. Bigger team? Bigger team? The Full quiz is £1,400: 2 hours, two hosts, up to 100 people.

Best for: a company of 20 to 100 that wants a plan for the evening without anyone on the team running it. If you'd rather run it yourself, our 50 Christmas quiz questions with answers are free.

2. A Traitors-style Treachery! session

The one people ask us for by name. A room of hidden traitors, accusations and votes, hosted: about 50 minutes before dinner, after it, or instead of it, for up to 30 people a session. Two sessions back to back covers a company of 60. Any room with chairs, no set, nothing physical. How a Traitors-style Christmas party runs, in full.

Price: from £20 a person, minimum £600 a session.

Best for: teams of 16–30 who loved the show, and parties where "an activity" has to mean more than a photo booth.

3. A games night

The suitcase show: sticker mixing, quiz rounds, a blind taste test, sculpture, Higher or Lower, and party games played in teams, themed for Christmas. Runs on the venue's own screen and speaker, so it works in a function room, a pub or a marquee.

Price: £12 a head, minimum £950 a night, up to 100 people.

Best for: a bigger, louder party where a sit-down quiz would be too quiet, and for teams that want to play rather than answer.

4. Two in one evening

A Treachery! session for the first 50 minutes while the drinks go round, then dinner, then a shorter quiz with the dessert. The room has been mixed twice before the DJ starts. Ask for a quote for both and we'll price the evening as one booking.

Free ideas that make any party better

• A picture round about your company. Baby photos of the leadership team, the office in its first year, the worst stock photo on the website. We write one into every hosted quiz, and it's the round people remember.
• Secret Santa with rules. A £10 cap, a theme ("something from a shop within 200 metres of the office"), and the unwrapping as a round: guess who bought what.
• Mix the seating on purpose. Numbered seats, drawn from a hat. The single most effective thing a party can do and it costs nothing.
• Awards, but short. Five awards, thirty seconds each, a host who keeps it moving. Not twenty-five.
• A finish time. Say when the hosted part ends and people stay longer, not shorter.

How booking works

Tell us the date, the headcount and the venue, if you know it. For a team party, Classic fits up to 60 people and Full up to 100. A games night suits 30–100 people. A 25% deposit on booking, with the balance due seven days before the event. Pay by bank transfer against an invoice, within 14 days. We hold public liability insurance to £2 million. There is no VAT to add: Get Social is not VAT registered, so the price you see is the whole price. Travel outside London is extra.
