New year fever is in the air and as an Event Manager, your success is in the turnout and crowd at your party.
How can you as an event planner or an Event Manager organize a mind-blowing party for all age groups?
We will help you answer this!
Here are some key points to take care before you start planning for your target set of audience
Your target audience will help you plan and strategize all of your organizing and marketing activities.
A party for all ages is one statement that all party hosts pride in. However, every age demands a different mood & facility at the party.
A. 18 to 30 years
Price
This crowd is price sensitive as they mostly live on pocket money or have just started earning, either way, they are hard on cash. Keep it low and save the stags. Stag entry can be made at par with the rest of the cover charges for at 20, finding a partner may be a little too hard! This could well be your selling point!
Music
STICK TO THE THEME! If there is a specific theme you have picked, allow your music to suit that theme and not mix it with other categories of music.
For a casual party
Contemporary music, rock, pop & a mix of Bollywood. Dhol is the trending part of parties lately and adding multiple dhols along with the right mix of house music will be a great hit amongst youngsters!
Artist
The DJ & MC have to be the CHOSEN ONE! Literally. Pick the best top names to help you gather the right crowd.
Sound & Light
The sound and light equipment needs to be of the latest technology for them to even think of booking your party.
Decor
The trend of themes is here! Add in the special element of a specific theme to give your party the oomph it needs.
Food & Alcohol
Light food- preferably chats and other finger foods. Alcohol – Beer & Breezer generation, they prefer only these!
Get Home Safe
Drivers on call is a great advantage to this. Most people arrange for drivers when they plan or take a cab. So it’s best that a transport deck is arranged to help people get back home.

Drink responsibly, party responsibly.
