Corporate Christmas event for your employees

Corporate Christmas entertainment can take three forms: close-up magic during the cocktail hour or dinner, an interactive magic and mentalism show, or a combination of both.
Harry Covert tailors every performance to the flow of your evening and the profile of your guests. Your employees don’t just watch the entertainment; their choices, reactions, and interactions become the very substance of the performance.
Performances can be delivered in French or English and are suitable for events in Annecy, Geneva, Lyon, Paris, and throughout France and Switzerland.

A CHRISTMAS party that your employees truly experience

Magic and mentalism have a particularly useful feature during a company party: they create conversations.

An effect experienced by a few people quickly becomes the topic of the neighboring group. Guests compare their perceptions, look for an explanation, and talk about what they just witnessed. The entertainment does not overshadow the evening: it naturally triggers exchanges between participants.

Harry Covert's approach is based on voluntary and benevolent participation. An employee can make a choice, think of a word, or take part in an experiment, without ever being put in a difficult position or made to look ridiculous.

Everyone is valued, whether they are a manager, a client, a partner, or a newcomer. The evening thus leaves a truly collective memory, built from what the guests experienced together.

CLOSE-UP FOR EMPLOYEES


Close-up is a type of magic performed at close range, just inches from the guests, sometimes directly between their hands.

Harry circulates among groups or from table to table during a cocktail, aperitif, or dinner. Each interaction lasts a few minutes and brings together a small number of participants.
This format is particularly well-suited for staggered arrivals. While guests mingle, the close-up magic breaks the ice, sparks initial conversations, and brings colleagues who don't know each other yet closer together.

The entertainment integrates into the existing flow without imposing a stage or interrupting conversations. It can be presented in French or English depending on the people met.

MAGIC AND MENTALISM SHOW

The show brings all employees together around a key shared moment.

Modern magic, mentalism, interaction, and humor blend into a performance where guests become participants. Their choices, their words, and their reactions influence what unfolds on stage.

The show can last from 20 to 60 minutes depending on your evening's schedule. It can be placed after a cocktail, between dinner courses, after speeches, or as a closing to the event.

The performance is adapted to the number of participants, the room layout, and available equipment. It can be presented in French or English.

CLOSE-UP AND SHOW

The combined package accompanies several moments of your evening.
Close-up first welcomes guests during the cocktail hour, gradually setting the mood. Then, the show brings the whole room together around a shared experience.

The continuity is based on a consistent universe, tone, and a single point of contact, from the first exchange to the last round of applause.

The setup is built according to your schedule, dinner seating, any speeches, number of participants, and venue constraints.

Entertainment that fits the rhythm of your evening

A year-end party may include staggered arrivals, a cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, an award ceremony, or several transition periods. The entertainment must find its place in this schedule without slowing it down.

Close-up magic accompanies informal moments and guests moving around. The show creates a shared event when the whole room is available. The combined formula allows you to link these different times together into a single experience.

Performance times, movement in the room, number of tables, and technical needs are validated in advance with Harry. This preparation allows you to preserve the flow of service, speeches, and other scheduled events.

A Christmas party for a large international group


A large international group in the agri-food sector entrusted Harry Covert with the entertainment for their Christmas party at the Casino de Divonne-les-Bains. A reception bringing together over 200 employees and about a hundred children; the kind of evening where several generations mingle and where the entertainment must appeal to everyone.

It wasn't their first collaboration. A few months earlier, the same company had hired Harry for a party reserved for employees in the vineyards on the heights of Lake Geneva. Having a service provider return for the year-end event after an initial party speaks volumes about the trust placed in them.

"Friday, December 2nd, Harry hosted our company party with over 200 people and 102 children."
— Karine B.

From a small group to a large reception, the entertainment adapts to the number of guests and the flow of your evening. Describe your event, and Harry will propose the formula that fits.

Why choose Harry Covert?

Harry Covert has been a professional magician and mentalist since 2010. His experience has been built during cocktails, dinners, seminars, conventions, and corporate parties.

These environments require finding the right rhythm, adapting to ongoing conversations, and precisely respecting the scheduled times for service, speeches, or other interventions.

His hallmark remains participation. Employees are invited to take part in the experiences in a voluntary, respectful, and benevolent manner. No one is trapped or ridiculed: each participant is highlighted.

Does your company also invite families?

When the year-end party brings together employees with their children, parents, or loved ones, the format must cater to several generations.

"The Mysteries of Christmas" is a family-oriented, participatory magic show designed to bring children, parents, and grandparents together. It can be complemented by close-up magic before or after the performance and by a Santa Claus appearance integrated into the finale.

Frequently asked questions about corporate Christmas entertainment

What entertainment should I choose for a corporate Christmas party?

Three formats are possible: close-up during the cocktail hour or dinner, a participatory show, or a combination of both. Close-up accompanies conversations, while the show gathers the whole room around a key shared moment.

What is the difference between close-up and a show?

Close-up takes place right next to the guests, in small groups, and without a stage. The show brings all participants together for a shared performance of 20 to 60 minutes.

Can close-up and a show be combined?

Yes. Close-up can welcome guests during the cocktail hour, then the show can gather the whole room at the chosen time. This formula creates continuity throughout several parts of the evening.

How long does the entertainment last?

The duration of close-up depends on the number of participants and the flow of the cocktail hour or dinner. The show can last from 20 to 60 minutes. The total duration is defined according to the event's schedule.

How many employees can participate?

Close-up adapts just as well to a small committee as to a large reception by circulating between groups or tables. For the show, the capacity depends mainly on the room, visibility, and sound system.

Can the performance be presented in English?

Yes. Both close-up and the show can be presented in French or English. The format is therefore suitable for international teams and events bringing together foreign guests.

Can a message or reference to the company be integrated?

Customization can be studied according to your objective and the chosen format. It must be prepared in advance to fit naturally into the performance without turning the show into a commercial presentation.

What are the technical needs?

Close-up requires no stage installation. The show requires a visible performance space and, depending on the room, adapted sound and lighting. The configuration is validated before the event.

What budget should I plan for corporate Christmas entertainment?

The rate depends on the date, location, number of participants, chosen format, duration, and technical needs. This information allows us to establish a proposal adapted to the actual flow of your evening.

How far in advance should I book?

Year-end availability generally fills up quickly. It is best to check the date as soon as the venue and general schedule of the evening are known.
