Questions
Company summer picnic FAQs
Do I need a permit for a company picnic in a Chicago park?
Usually yes for large groups, tents, amplified sound or alcohol. Apply to the Chicago Park District at least 30 days ahead.
What is the best layout for a corporate gala?
72-inch rounds of ten facing a stage, with the bar and photo moment at the back so the programme isn't interrupted.
Do you supply AV for company events?
We can add PA systems, wireless mics, projectors, screens, podiums and TVs from our partners' catalogs. For a full production crew, tell us the scope and we'll quote it.
Can I rent everything for a corporate event in one order?
Yes. Pick the rentals from this page or the planner and send one free quote. We book them with Chicago-area rental partners and list delivery, setup, a damage waiver and sales tax line by line before you pay anything.
