Toronto’s weather does not give residents many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, so when good summer weather rolls around, companies try to take advantage of the warmer months by hosting company picnics. Summer is a great time to entertain summer associates, interns, corporate groups and clients in the fresh air. Whether you are hosting a team-building function, a company gathering or a corporate picnic, Surround Sound DJ offers fantastic services to keep your guests entertained.
A long-standing tradition, the corporate picnic is something everyone loves. The modern corporate picnic takes on a fresh twist, complete with professional DJs, games and professional catering. Many people use the term picnic loosely these days and include almost any outdoor event, such as company potlucks or barbecues. Either way, the most important consideration is the venue.
Corporate Picnic DJ’s Top Venues
With its beautiful landscape, Toronto is a great place for corporate picnics. The city has public parks, waterfront picnic locations, forested recreational spots and prime parks from which you can take your pick.
Choosing the right venue is the key to setting the right ambiance from the moment your first guests arrive. When you look at venues, consider ease of access and parking, access to picnic tables, the quality of the scenery and the amount of privacy you require in the public park.
Of course, having a corporate picnic DJ from Surround Sound DJ welcome your guests will go a long way toward setting the right atmosphere.
Here are some of the best venues:
- Sherbourne Common is a treatment facility that doubles as a grassy park, spanning two city blocks along the waterfront.
- Toronto Zoo is a great venue for corporate picnics that welcome the whole family.
- Sugar Beach is a one-of-a-kind urban beach, complete with grassy hills, bright umbrellas and even a promenade.
If you are looking for something a little more formal, you may opt for a restaurant with outdoor seating areas, such as large patios or lawns where you can set up tables.
Please Note: Surround Sound DJ is in no way affiliated with these venues, and we ask that clients kindly arrange any permits required to host picnics and use DJ services in their preferred location.
