Winter is coming. And so are the holiday parties.
“Are there more holiday parties this year? Absolutely – for every event planner,” said Tye Conner, special events manager for Epic Party Team in Surprise.
That apparently holds true nationwide, with almost 76% of U.S. companies planning to hold a holiday party this year, according to a survey by Chicago-based Challenger, Gray & Christmas Inc.
The business and outplacing firm said that is the highest level it has seen in its annual survey since 2016, when 80% of companies held holiday events.
