Just like your virtual meetings, you can host a fun virtual happy hour over any video conferencing platform of your choice.
Hosting a corporate Zoom happy hour requires a video conferencing platform, time, goodies, and an organized program. Trust us when we say it can be an overwhelming activity. That's why it's always a wise idea to involve the happy hour pros at Confetti in your planning.
Fun is whatever you make it out to be, so verify your team's idea of fun and implement it. For example, a teammate who drinks alcoholic beverages will have a different view of fun from non-drinkers.
The number of participants at your Zoom happy hour will depend on the event or experience you're planning. Also, remember that Zoom limits the number of persons on a call depending on your subscription plan. The maximum number is 1,000 team members, and that's only possible with the "Large Meetings" add-on plan.
There's no better way to evaluate your Zoom happy hour's success than asking for feedback. Feedback will help you determine how fun and engaging your event was. It'll also ensure that you know all you need to do to make the next one more exciting.
