IATI Seguros

Some end-of-year parties follow the same script. But IATI Seguros wanted something different: a midday in Barcelona with their team, a proper activity to kick things off, and enough space to actually enjoy the day together.

We took care of everything from venue to music. This is how the day went.

‍

Finding the right venue in Barcelona

We found and rented a private space in the city centre with an outdoor terrace. It needed to work for an active team building, flow into a relaxed lunch, and then shift naturally into an afternoon with a DJ. It ticked all the boxes.

Live Cluedo as a Team Building

Before the food and the music, the team had a mystery to solve.

We ran a live Cluedo where everyone was split into teams and had to work together to figure out whodunit. Different suspects, hidden clues, and the kind of team effort that gets people talking, laughing and thinking on their feet.

It's one of those activities that looks simple but delivers something real. People who don't usually interact end up working side by side, getting competitive in the best way, and building a shared story that keeps coming up at the table later.

No screens. No slides. Just a good mystery to crack together.

Cocktail lunch, paella and open bar

Once the case was closed, it was time to eat.

Lunch was served cocktail style, starting with a spread of aperitivos that kept the energy up and the conversations going. Then came the paellas, cooked and served right there in the space. An open bar ran the whole time, making sure no glass stayed empty for long.

A DJ to close the afternoon

The afternoon ended how good parties should: with a DJ and a proper dancefloor.

Bringing live music into a midday event is a choice that says something. It says we're not rushing back to our desks. We're here, we're together, and we're making the most of it.

It worked. The energy shifted, people let loose, and what started as a work event finished as something much better.

End-of-year events that actually feel like a celebration

The IATI Seguros Winter Party is a good example of what happens when you move away from the standard format. With the right venue, a well-thought programme and activities that get people involved, the Christmas party becomes one of the highlights of the year.

At Gecko Events we take care of everything from start to finish, so the People team can walk in on the day and enjoy it alongside everyone else.
