The Christmas party season is always the busiest time of the year for Rockaoke. It’s the perfect chance for CEO’s to strut around a stage instead of the boardroom, before being blown away by ‘Malcolm from IT’ whose death defying performance of Rage Against The Machine instantly becomes company legend.

Last year alone we brought christmas party rock stardom to the likes of Google, Sky, Mercedes F1 team ( including Nico Rosberg ), Ernst & Young, ASOS, Nintendo, O2, Leeds United FC and many many more. Here’s a quick glimpse at some of the 50+ parties played in December 2015 by the original, all singing, all crazy dancing, totally rocking, full band Rockaoke.

This Christmas we’ve come up with a few new tricks to add even more Yuletide fun to your christmas party. You can either add them onto the beginning of your Rockaoke based event or as a stand alone booking.

The Rockaoke Mariachi Band

Get the party going early with a visit from our sing a long Mariachi Band. It could be during a sit down meal, around the office in the afternoon or at a drinks reception; the band will walk around the crowd, playing classic christmas party hits and encouraging revellers to warm up their vocal chords. This is the perfect starter to serving up full band Rockaoke as your main entertainment course.

Acoustaoke

Your venue maybe a bit short on space or the neighbours oddly get annoyed by live rock bands next door – so why not consider Acoustaoke?! This is a stripped down, zero emissions version of Rockaoke, using acoustic instruments and minimal sound equipment. Acoustaoke goes down a storm at private house parties but would also drop nicely into a communal work space for lunchtime fun or as part of pre dinner drinks. Christmas party song lists and elf hats provided as standard and don’t worry, it’s just as lively as it’s big brother Rockaoke. See proof below

Live Band Music Quiz – The Christmas Album

Using the hundreds of songs in their repertoire and a love of music trivia, Rockaoke have developed their own take on the traditional music quiz – and it’s perfect for any christmas party. Whether you opt for a few rounds during dinner or make it the main event, The Christmas Album provides festive rounds that mix a standard music quiz with ROCKAOKE madness. Test yourself with live intros / riffs, beat the night club singer, try to sing the next line or dare to take on the ROCKAOKE challenge. This has bamboozled contestants from the fields of Isle of Wight Festival to corporate events at Hard Rock Cafe.

“Rockaoke created a Live Musical Quiz for us at the Hard Rock Cafe last Christmas. It was perfectly pitched at our audience, with lots of relevant festive rounds which were both fun and interactive. The live rounds were great and the highlight had to be the sing the next line round which turned into a huge Bon Jovi sing-a-long at the end of the night – all in all, a great event” Faye Lewington – Senior Client Relationship Manager – BDO
