Corporate holiday parties are evolving. In 2025, numerous options outside of just a restaurant abound – think, creating immersive, memorable experiences that teams will talk about long after the decorations are packed away. Companies are leaning into personalization, interactive engagement, and unique venues that make employees feel celebrated in style.
At Oracle Park and its surrounding venues, Giants Enterprises is at the forefront of these trends. With exclusive spaces, unforgettable views, and one-of-a-kind enhancements, Oracle Park holiday events redefine what it means to celebrate.
1. Immersive Activities
Twenty-first century employees want more than a sit-down meal; they want to participate. That’s why interactive experiences are one of the biggest trends in 2025 holiday planning.
At Oracle Park, the options are endless. Guests can take a swing in the Major League batting tunnels, the very same ones where Giants players train. Others might step onto the pitcher’s mound in the outfield bullpen to clock their pitch speed and see their name on a live leaderboard. Add in scoreboard activations, from custom logos to hashtag walls, and you’ve got a party that channels a festive fantasy baseball camp with your colleagues.
Even Lou Seal, the Giants’ zany mascot, can make an appearance to liven up the dance floor or join in photos. It’s all designed to make your event unforgettable.
2. Shareable Social Media Moments & Personalized Keepsakes
Another trend shaping 2025 is the rise of custom photo and gifting experiences. Teams don’t just want to attend an event; they want to remember it, post it, and bring a piece of it home.
Oracle Park delivers on the social sharing front with branded photo booths and roaming photographers, including a fan-favorite activation where each guest gets their very own baseball trading card. For groups that want to take things further, specialty Hands on History tours let employees model authentic World Series rings, swing game-used bats, and touch pieces of baseball history.
When it’s time for farewell gifts, think outside the standard swag bag. Giants Enterprises assists companies in creating calligraphy baseballs, custom bats with company logos, and personalized jerseys displayed in the clubhouse lockers.
3. Flexible Formats
In 2025, corporate holiday events are increasingly mixing formats: part reception, part dinner, part experience. Flexibility is key, and Oracle Park’s venues make it seamless.
Picture this:
- Dinner-focused Flow (4 hours): Guests arrive for cocktails and light bites (garlic fries, hot dogs in tinfoil for a playful touch). A seated dinner features a buffet inspired by San Francisco’s culturally diverse neighborhoods. Then cap off your night with ballpark tours and batting cages for a final toast.
- Reception-style Flow (4 hours): The night begins with drinks and photo ops, shifts into group activities like batting tunnels or scoreboard games, and builds toward a lively DJ-led dance floor, with a surprise Lou Seal cameo for the ultimate finale.
These structured experiences guarantee that your guests feel entertained from arrival to farewell.
4. Venues with Distinct Vibes
One of the strongest 2025 trends is finding a venue that matches your company’s personality. Giants Enterprises offers a range of spaces, each with its own holiday vibe:
- Club Level: Elevated and interactive, with panoramic Bay views and the best scoreboard access.
- Gotham Club: A cozy, speakeasy-style hideaway with a vintage billiards table, two bowling lanes, holiday trees, dark wood, and exclusivity.
- Giants Clubhouse Dinner: Premium, behind-the-scenes access where custom jerseys in lockers and seamless batting cage transitions wow guests.
- Dugout & Warning Track: Field-level magic with heaters, fire pits, and s’mores for a cozy yet immersive experience.
- Pier 48: A 200,000-sq.-ft. industrial canvas for large, customizable events.
No matter your team size or style, Oracle Park has a venue that can be designed just for you.
