- 10 suggestions for your next Christmas party
Theme: Festive, Christmas, Christmas party, Christmas music, Live music, Tips and tricks, Entertainment
The Christmas party is the highlight of the year for many workplaces and friends - the party where people get together for good food, fun activities and a great dance floor. Are you wearing your planning hat this year and looking for Ideas to make your party perfect? So take a look - here are 10 creative suggestions on how to create the perfect evening with food, decorations, games and not least live music.
1. Create the right atmosphere with a theme
A consistent theme will make your Christmas party memorable. Try a classic Christmas Eve with fir trees, red tablecloths and gingerbread - or go all in on a Winter Wonderland theme with white, silver and lots of lights. A theme creates atmosphere and makes it easy to choose decorations, menu and music that work well together.
2. Plan a delicious Christmas lunch menu
None at all Christmas party Without good food! Classics like herring, liver pate and roast pork are the norm - but give it a twist. Consider small delicious dishes such as mini sandwiches or Christmas tapas. The food means a lot to the Christmas party, and guests remember good food!
3. Create a festive atmosphere with multi-stage music
Music doesn't just have to be for dancing. Start slowly with a pianist or acoustic duo during dinner to create warmth and cosiness. After dessert, switch things up with a singer or saxophonist playing familiar Christmas songs. This allows the music to follow the natural rhythm of the party and create variation.
4. Create a fun music quiz
A music quiz is always a hit! Divide your guests into teams and test their knowledge of Christmas hits, Danish classics and famous 80s songs. A quiz is a great way to create laughter and camaraderie - and works perfectly as a little break between courses.
5. Decorate with personality
Decorations set the mood. Create a cosy atmosphere with candles, Christmas branches and small details that reflect your workplace or group of friends. Consider including a photo corner with fun Santa hats, tinsel and fun signs for plenty of great photos to remember the evening by.
6. Create a dress code or costume
A simple way to get the laughs and atmosphere going is a dress code! Try “ugly Christmas sweaters”, “glamour Christmas” or “elf party”. It breaks the ice and makes everyone turn up with a smile and you have the opportunity to set the mood before the guests arrive!
7. Create a musical highlight in the middle of the evening
Surprise your guests with a musical experience in the middle of the party. For example, a short live performance or a Santa band parade that unexpectedly gets the party going. It could be a singer interpreting a few beautiful Christmas carols or a band playing an acoustic version of a popular song. This type of performance creates a wow effect and gives guests a unique memory of the evening.
8. Activity: Guess a colleague
Play a fun game where you guess fun facts about each other. “Who ate 12 risalamande in 2019?” or “Who played in a band?”. It creates laughter and good conversations, and you get to know each other better!
9. Hold an awards ceremony
Create small awards such as “Elf of the Year”, “Best Dancer” or “Laugh of the Christmas Party”. Hand out prizes such as chocolate, wine or small gifts. Awarding prizes energises and builds community - and makes the party more personal.
10. End the night with dancing and atmosphere
When the food is eaten and the games are over, the dance floor needs to be filled. Here again, live music is a strong choice. A Limunt band can tailor the repertoire to match your guests - from modern pop to classic hits. The music will lift the mood and ensure the Christmas party will be talked about long afterwards. A DJ can pick up where the band left off and create a dynamic end to the Christmas party.

The most frequently asked questions for us!
The name Limunt originated as a contraction of the words Tove Music Entertainment. We have booked music since 2016 through the concepts Jazzkollektivet, Popkollektivet, Strygerkollektivet etc., but decided in 2022 to bring the activity under Limunt and create a better coherence and clarity of our many different offers.
We handpick our musicians from the great Danish, Swedish, Norwegian and German talent pool. In the administration, we all have a background as professional musicians in a wide range of genres. Through our large network, the Danish conservatories, jam sessions throughout the country and by constantly keeping a finger on the pulse of the Danish music scene, we can ensure a high level every time. We make a virtue of onboarding each individual musician so that expectations are aligned from the start. The musicians should do what they do best: play great music - then Limunt handles all the administration around each performance.
Payment will fall after your event. You will receive an invoice from our administration.
In most cases, it is possible to extend the playing time if you do not want the music to stop at the agreed time. However, as we only book professional musicians, there may be circumstances where this is not possible, for example if the musicians have another job later in the day, have an early job the next day or a voice that can't cope any longer. If you want to make sure you have the option to book an extra set of music on the day, we recommend that you arrange this with your Limunt contact so that both you and the musicians are aware of the option.
The prices we quote are in most cases inclusive of transport (to land bridges), VAT and engineering (up to 100 people).
We customise each specific offer - booking everything from a single solo musician playing a single song to live music over several days for larger events. Try our price calculator or contact us for a no-obligation quote.
We provide substitutes in case of illness, so you don't lose the music for your event. We have built up good procedures with our many musicians and have an action plan in case of illness. Our large catalogue of musicians means that in almost all cases we can find a talented replacement in a very short time.
It's hard to give a clear answer, as we book solo musicians, traditional party bands and full orchestras of 9-10 people. A traditional band of 3-5 people should have at least 3×4 meters to stand on. A solo musician can manage on 3×2 meters. However, there are many factors that come into play when it comes to space - so it's best to have a chat with your Limunt contact. A concrete example where the above rule does not quite apply is when booking a party band: here we at Limunt always recommend placing the music in the same room as the bar, as this way you gather the activity and the party in one place - and get more people on the dance floor! If there are not quite 3×4 meters to stand on, we still recommend placing the band at the bar, even if the musicians need to sit a little close, to ensure the good party!
Typically in sets of either 2 x 45 minutes or 3 x 45 minutes. But it all depends on the function of the music: whether it's background music, a beautiful feature or party music to get the party started. We provide everything from a single heartfelt song for the wedding to music for 10 hours during a larger event.
You are always welcome to make suggestions for the repertoire - that way we get to know your taste and try to include everything possible. However, we cannot guarantee to fulfil all your wishes. We are often in dialogue with customers who are very unsure about the repertoire - and we are here to help. By booking more than 500 jobs annually, we know what works for different events. Our professional musicians are also good at reading the audience on the day, which means that changes can be made to the setlist during the performance.
When booking an event with 1-3 songs for e.g. a wedding, we take a dialogue about what is possible - and in most cases we can meet your wishes.
The jazz concept Jazzkollektivet was what started it all in 2016. Then followed Popkollektivet, Strygerkollektivet etc. In 2022 we decided to bring all our concepts and booking together on this new site!
