Soaring into 2015!

Not entirely sure where 2014 went and now we seem to be headlong into 2015 – madness! Steel City Promotions would like to wish everyone a humongous Happy New Year – here’s to success and happiness over the coming year!

Now, a little flashback to the last few weeks of 2014 and what we got up to throughout the Christmas Party Season.  We left you all anticipating Winter Wonderlands, Great Gatsbys and 80’s themed entertainment – well let me tell you, these events did not disappoint and we soared through December in high Festive Spirits! 

We hired in a classic A Team van to kick start a superb 80’s themed event we did on Barracks – the guest of honour was whizzed to the front doors of the venue in true VIP style and welcomed into illuminous, mirror ball, 80’s madness! Plenty of twinkling Black Star Cloth transformed the venue space from officer’s mess to glitzy Christmas Party and we had a score of 80’s entertainment lined up for the guests to enjoy. Try Retro Arcade Games, 80’s themed Dancers and a Night Fever style LED Dance Floor so they could party the night away. Scores of themed props and room dressing from our ever expanding warehouse really added to the theme.

A Narnia themed event at a large venue in Sheffield was just stunning from start to finish.  An ambiguous entrance was made using just our Narnia Wardrobe – closed up tight for guests to wonder what was through the doors following their drinks reception.  The doors opened as the call to dinner came and awestruck guests were lead through a magical wintery tunnel filled with white drape, snow flocked trees and traditional lamp posts. Once through the tunnel, they were met by our beautiful Ice Queen Stilt Walker, a dusting of snow and their setting for the evening.  We created a magnificent stage set with the use of our ‘Frozen’ Bridge and snow flocked trees and a unique photo opportunity for guests using Winter themed backdrops, lamp posts and yet more trees; and of course, what Narnia themed event would be complete without Aslan the Lion! The photo opportunity was a great idea inspired by the clients wish for a photo booth – however with close to 1000 guests, a photo booth just didn’t seem a viable option. With the photo area we created, guests could pile in on mass, pose with the props and there wouldn’t be a bottle neck of people waiting. An idea that really did go down a storm!
 

Another event that we really need to tell you about was a recent Arabian themed event that we produced from start to finish.  From the bespoke marquee build to the décor that brought the theme to life and the entertainment that rocked the night, this event was a huge success and one to be very proud of.  I can’t really elaborate much more than this however here’s a sneaky pic that will hopefully tickle your tastebuds and get you thinking about this years annual party, launch, ball or event.

So, ahead to 2015 – the trends are coming in fast already as we see 007 themed launches already being planned for the back end of the year when ‘Spectre’ is released. More on this soon…if you’re planning any kind of event of the coming months, let us know…I’m sure we can help!
