3 Fall Company Picnic Ideas to Ease the Pain of Summer’s End
If you think company picnics only happen in the summertime, then you will be happy to know the fall season ushers in a whole other side to corporate events. Check out these ideas for fall company picnics that will have you sailing out of summer and into the crisp, cool afternoons of autumn.
Fall Fest Company Picnic/Tailgating
Tailgating is the harbinger of fall, and we can’t think of a better way to welcome employees than with the promise of grilled foods and a casual afternoon. But it doesn’t have to stop there. Put a seasonal spin on this fall company picnic with caramel apples, hot cider, pumpkin carving, and – if you dare – a costume party. It’s all about getting into the spirit of the season, and this type of corporate event is an easy one to customize for the interests of your group.
Oktoberfest Fall Company Picnic
If you regularly anticipate the arrival of Oktoberfest in the fall, chances are this company picnic idea will resonate with you. Think lederhosen, festive music, authentic foods and cold beer, and you have your very own Oktoberfest company picnic. You can even incorporate seasonal games to make it more interesting, such as bobbing for apples. Take employees on hayrides, cruise through corn mazes, or incorporate teambuilding activities into your fall picnic for benefits that last well beyond the event.
Halloween Company Picnic/BBQ
Looking for a fall company picnic idea with a bit of an edge? Halloween-themed corporate events are something your group can really look forward to attending. You can choose to host an elaborate costume party, set up haunted mazes, and – if you want – skip the tricks in favor of treats like a yummy barbecue, hot cider station, and make-your-own caramel apples. The sky is the limit with this one; you can get as creative or as spooky as you think your team will enjoy.
