Your employees are the people who keep your business moving every day. Whether they are serving customers, managing projects, meeting deadlines, solving problems, or supporting your team behind the scenes, taking time to show your appreciation can go a long way.
And employee appreciation doesn’t have to mean another meeting, a generic catered lunch, or a gift card handed out at the end of the day.
Sometimes, the best way to say “thank you” is to give your team an opportunity to step away from work, enjoy some great food, have a little fun, and spend time together.
At Fun Stuff Rental Company, we’ve made planning those moments easier with our new Employee Appreciation and Corporate Event Packages.
Why Employee Appreciation Events Matter
A company appreciation event gives employees something that can be difficult to create during the normal workday: time to relax and connect with coworkers without an agenda.
Employee appreciation events can be as simple as an afternoon popcorn party or as elaborate as a company carnival with concessions, games, music, tables, tents, and other entertainment.
The important part is making the event feel like it is truly for your employees.
Whether you're celebrating a successful quarter, recognizing a company milestone, thanking employees after a busy season, welcoming new team members, or simply showing your staff that their work is appreciated, a company event can turn an ordinary workday into something memorable.
Introducing Our Corporate Event Packages
We recently added Corporate Event Packages designed specifically to make company celebrations and employee appreciation events easier to plan.
Instead of renting individual machines and figuring out supplies separately, our packages combine popular equipment and concession supplies into convenient options for your event.
Company Carnival Package
Want to turn the office parking lot, warehouse, company lawn, or event space into your own mini carnival?
Our Company Carnival Package combines several classic concession favorites, including:
- Commercial popcorn machine
- Cotton candy machine
- Snow cone machine
- Hot dog roller grill
- Popcorn supplies for up to 75 servings
- Cotton candy supplies for up to 75 servings
- Snow cone supplies for up to 75 servings
It’s a great option for larger employee appreciation days, company picnics, family events, summer celebrations, and milestone parties.
Hot dogs and buns are not included, giving your company the flexibility to provide its preferred brands, quantities, or catering options.
Frozen & Fresh Appreciation Package
Nothing breaks up the workday quite like frozen drinks and fresh popcorn.
Our Frozen & Fresh Appreciation Package combines a slushy machine with three refreshing flavors and a commercial popcorn machine.
The package provides more than 60 slushy servings along with popcorn supplies for up to 60 people.
This package works especially well for:
- Summer employee appreciation events
- Outdoor company gatherings
- Office celebrations
- Manufacturing and warehouse employee events
- Team recognition days
- Company open houses
- Casual Friday celebrations
Set everything up in a breakroom, cafeteria, lobby, parking lot, warehouse, or outdoor company space and give employees something different to enjoy throughout the event.
Carnival Treats Package
Sometimes you don't need a huge event to make an impression.
Fresh popcorn and cotton candy can instantly give an ordinary company gathering a more festive atmosphere.
Our Carnival Treats Package includes commercial popcorn and cotton candy machines along with supplies for up to 60 servings of each treat.
It’s an easy addition to an employee appreciation lunch, company picnic, recruiting event, family day, sales celebration, open house, or other workplace gathering.
And yes — adults enjoy cotton candy just as much as kids do.
Office Popcorn Party
Employee appreciation doesn't always require planning a full-scale event.
Sometimes you just need popcorn.
Our Office Popcorn Party is designed to make a simple workplace surprise easy. The package includes a commercial popcorn machine, popcorn supplies and serving bags for up to 60 people, along with delivery and pickup.
Bring it into the office for an afternoon snack, use it during a company meeting, or surprise employees during a particularly busy week.
It's a simple way to turn an ordinary workday into something employees weren't expecting.
Turn Your Parking Lot Into an Employee Appreciation Event
One of our favorite things about company events is that you don't necessarily need an event venue.
Your own property may already have everything you need.
A parking lot, grassy area, courtyard, warehouse, conference room, cafeteria, or lobby can become an employee appreciation space with the right rentals.
Depending on the size of your event, consider adding:
- Tents for shade
- Tables and chairs
- Cocktail tables
- Yard games
- Cornhole
- Giant Connect 4
- Bucket Golf
- Music and speakers
- Concession machines
- Beverage dispensers
- Photo booths
- Catering and buffet equipment
- Lighting
You can keep the event simple or build an entire company carnival around it.
Don't Forget Employees' Families
For larger annual appreciation events, consider inviting employees' spouses, partners, and children.
Family-friendly company events can create an entirely different atmosphere from a traditional corporate gathering.
Concession machines, outdoor games, music, photo booths, tents, and casual seating help create an environment where employees can relax while their families get to experience the company from a different perspective.
A company picnic or carnival can also work well for businesses with multiple departments or shifts that don't normally have many opportunities to interact.
Employee Appreciation Ideas Throughout the Year
You don't have to wait for Employee Appreciation Day to recognize your team.
Consider planning something around:
- Company anniversaries
- Employee Appreciation Day
- Summer company picnics
- Record sales months
- Project completions
- Safety milestones
- Successful product launches
- Holiday celebrations
- End-of-quarter events
- Busy-season wrap-ups
- Employee birthdays
- Recruiting events
- Open houses
- Team-building days
- Customer appreciation events
- Company family days
You can even surprise employees with a popcorn machine, cotton candy machine, or frozen drinks on a completely ordinary Tuesday.
Sometimes those unexpected events are the ones people remember most.
Make Planning the Event Easier
Corporate events already involve enough moving pieces.
Food. Employees. Invitations. Schedules. Locations. Setup. Cleanup. Entertainment.
Our Corporate Event Packages are designed to eliminate some of that coordination by grouping popular equipment and supplies together, while Fun Stuff Rental Company handles delivery and pickup.
That means less time coordinating equipment and more time focusing on your employees.
