Turn your employee recognition programs into a night people talk about on Monday, with names called on a real stage and a room that cheers. We write the run of show with you, so on the night you only hand out the awards.
An award said out loud in front of colleagues stays with a person longer than a badge in an app.
Your company may already have the everyday side: a kudos channel, an Employee of the Month email, a points catalog. What's often missing is the moment when the whole team stops and looks at one person. That moment is the event we build. It can be an annual awards night, a quarterly celebration or a lunch for service milestones at five, ten and twenty years.
A live event also gives your employee engagement programs something to aim at. People know the date, they know there will be a stage, and they know their manager will say their name. If you want a broader thank-you for the whole staff, see our employee appreciation events.
You decide who gets recognized and why. We turn that list into an evening with a clear order and no dead time. Here are employee recognition program ideas we build into one night.
Sales teams compete all year. We give the result a public finish: the final ranking on screen, the top performers on stage and the next year's goal announced the same night.
One team plans, builds and runs the evening, so you don't brief five vendors.
You'll see the price for your exact evening before you commit. We don't keep a price list. Every event gets a custom quote.
These events show how we work with HR and people teams on the day: a prize to award, a crowd to move and a program to keep on time.
This is recognition in contest form. Capital Group set ten prize places for a racing challenge on the 55th floor: a racing helmet for first and trophies for the next nine. The ranking stayed on a screen between two cockpits all afternoon, so everyone knew who was in the running.
Los Angeles, CA
For an outdoor employee celebration on a city plaza, we ran five interactive stations, including a branded AI photo booth, and the full sound system for music and announcements. Capital Group has booked us for three events.
Los Angeles, CA
Parker Aerospace opened its campus to employees and their families. About 500 guests were expected, and our two flight simulators had a queue from about 9 AM.
Irvine, CA
These shots show the stage moments and the contests around them.
Your venue gets our documents early, so load-in doesn't wait on an email.
Awards nights go flat for a few simple reasons. Here's what each one costs and what we do instead.
Too many names in a row.
Forty awards read back to back lose the room by the tenth. We split categories into short rounds with music, food or a contest between them.
Nobody can hear.
A hotel ballroom mic at the podium doesn't reach the back tables. We place speakers along the seating and test from the last row.
Winners find out from a list.
If the photo isn't on screen and the name isn't spoken clearly, the moment is gone. Each name gets a slide, music and a photo spot.
Remote staff left out.
People in the field watch a frozen stream or nothing at all. We plan a camera and a stream for them from the start.
The program runs late.
Dinner service and speeches collide. One person on our side calls every cue.
You'll know who does what from the first message to the last award.
You stay with your guests. Our team handles the stage.
Event lead. Plans with you and the venue and stays your contact on the night.
Show caller. Holds the script and cues each speaker, slide and song.
AV technician. Runs sound, microphones and screens.
Operators. One at each interactive station, briefing guests and keeping the line moving.
The same team runs your evening in any city.
Two bases
We have two bases: Los Angeles and our Orlando office and warehouse. Our equipment and specialists travel to events nationwide, from Florida and the East Coast to the West, and we arrange transport, setup and staffing together. If your company holds one awards night per region, we can run each of them with the same format.
Orlando office: 310 N Orange Ave, STE. 201, Orlando, FL 32801No. We don't sell points software or a rewards catalog. We run the live events that your recognition program leads up to.
Every event gets a custom quote. It depends on guest count, venue, AV and the stations you add. Send the date and city to get yours.
