Christmas party in Prague
For many companies, the Christmas party is a chance to thank employees for the whole year, to meet up outside the office and simply enjoy an evening together. But every year, corporate Christmas parties bring the same question: Where should we take the team this year so that it is not just another dinner?
Prague offers dozens of restaurants, bars and event spaces. But if you are looking for a venue for a company party that offers something extra, you do not have to stay seated at a table with refreshments. At Pilsner Urquell: The Original Beer Experience you can combine a festive evening, good food and drink with an interactive programme and real experiences.
Right in the centre of Prague, in a newly renovated Art Nouveau building, you can create a Christmas party, a company event or a team building session exactly as you imagine it. Whether you are planning an intimate gathering for a smaller team or a large corporate event, a variety of spaces and programmes are available and can be combined to suit your needs.
A Christmas party as a shared experience
We all know the classic company party script: arrival, a toast, dinner, a speech and then free entertainment. But why not take the programme one step further?
It is the experience that can turn an ordinary company party into a shared memory. And it does not have to mean forced team games or competitions. It is enough to give your colleagues the chance to discover, try or learn something together.
One of the options is The Original Tour, an experiential exhibition that guides visitors through the story of Pilsner Urquell from its history to the present day. The interactive exhibition works with audiovisual technology, the story of the beer, its ingredients and the brewing process, and a beer tasting is not missing either.
And if you would like to extend the experience even further, you can choose, for example, the Tapster Academy, where participants learn the techniques of proper beer tapping under the guidance of experienced tapsters. At the tapster academy, the tapsters will teach you how to pour all three styles of Pilsner beer: Hladinka, Mlíko and Šnyt.
From the experience to beer gastronomy
A successful company party is of course not only about the programme, but also about good food and drink. That is why we also offer catering for corporate events, with a selection of dishes that suit both an informal get-together and a more festive evening.
The menu can be adapted to the type of event and to the chosen space, so that the refreshments fit naturally into the whole programme. Throughout the evening, guests can enjoy their food together with a perfectly poured Pilsner Urquell, whether you are planning a classic dinner, a buffet or refreshments served during the evening.
For smaller and more intimate groups, another interesting addition to the programme is the Beer Sommelier Dinner. It combines Czech cuisine with carefully selected beers and offers a slightly different perspective on gastronomy and on beer itself. You can give the party a more festive form and at the same time offer guests a programme that is not only about sitting down to a meal.
It is precisely this combination of a programme and the time spent together afterwards that makes it possible to put together a tailor-made corporate Christmas party. Some teams may prefer an interactive experience, others gastronomy or a more intimate programme. The advantage is that the individual parts of the evening can be adapted to the number of guests and to the character of the whole event.
Space for a small team and for the whole company
One of the most important decisions when planning a company event is of course the choice of space. Pilsner Urquell: The Original Beer Experience offers several options, so there is no need to adapt the number of guests to the space – the individual venues can be chosen according to the size and type of the party you are planning.
Beer Hall: a large company party in the centre of Prague
Beer Hall is an iconic restaurant with a capacity of up to 250 people. The space is dominated by a large central bar, which creates a lively atmosphere and allows smooth service. The space also includes a raised stage and two large screens.
Beer Hall is therefore suitable not only for a classic Christmas party, but also for company presentations, speeches and other accompanying programmes. If you are looking for a venue for a company party in Prague for a larger number of guests, it offers plenty of flexibility for the most varied types of events.
Pilsner Hall: a versatile space for 20 to 80 guests
Pilsner Hall offers a capacity of 20–80 people and, thanks to its location between Hladinka Bar and Brewer's Bar, it can be combined with other spaces. It can therefore work on its own for a smaller company gathering, or become part of a larger event.
It is an interesting choice for companies looking for a company event in Prague with a flexible layout that want to adapt the programme to a specific number of guests.
Brewer's Bar: an intimate company party with a view
For a smaller team there is Brewer's Bar with a capacity of 15–30 people. This premium space offers a view of Wenceslas Square, privacy and stylish surroundings dominated by an elegant golden 360° bar.
Here you can enrich the programme with a Beer Sommelier Dinner, and the space can also be connected with Pilsner Hall. Brewer's Bar can therefore be a suitable choice for a more intimate company Christmas party, a client meeting or a smaller team celebration.
Hladinka Bar: when you want more privacy
The smallest of the spaces, Hladinka Bar, offers a capacity of up to 12 people. The cosy private lounge is ideal for smaller gatherings, informal business meetings or as part of a larger programme.
This is also where you can hold the Tapster Academy. An ordinary company get-together can easily turn into a small team experience, during which colleagues learn something new and of course taste the result as well.
When you want the party to really work
When planning a Christmas party for employees, the space itself is not the only thing that matters. How the individual parts of the evening follow one another is just as important.
You can start, for example, with The Original Tour, continue with time together and dinner in Beer Hall and end the evening with free entertainment. A smaller team can choose a more intimate space and add the Tapster Academy or a Beer Sommelier Dinner. For a larger event, Beer Hall can offer enough space for a presentation, for the formal part and for the social part of the evening that follows.
The location is another advantage. Pilsner Urquell: The Original Beer Experience is located at 28. října 377/13, just a few minutes' walk from Wenceslas Square and other places in the centre of Prague.
Take advice from those who have already experienced a company event here
Companies that have held their events here confirm that this is not just a nice space on paper.
Andrea Toušková from CNC, for example, appreciated the professional direction of the gala evening, from the technical set-up through the organisation to the service. Jakub Hoffman from ASAHI highlighted the generous capacity, the spacious cloakroom and the several taps, thanks to which no queues formed during their large corporate events.
Martina Kurtulíková from AXIANS also had a positive experience and appreciated the atmosphere of the spaces, the smooth cooperation and the helpfulness of the event team. Viktor Tecl from QERKO then highlighted the professional approach, the communication, the willingness to deal with details, the refreshments and the environment.
These experiences show that a corporate event is not only about the space itself. The organisation, the service and the ability to adapt the event to a company's specific ideas are just as important.
This year it does not have to be just another company dinner
If you are looking for a Christmas party in Prague this year, try to look at it a little differently. It does not have to be just the end of the working year at a table. It can be an opportunity for the whole team to meet outside the office, to experience something together and to set their work roles aside for a while.
At Pilsner Urquell: The Original Beer Experience you can combine a space for a company event, refreshments, a programme and a team building experience in one place. From The Original Tour through the Tapster Academy to beer gastronomy, you can put together an evening to match the size of your team, the atmosphere and what you expect from a company party.
