A holiday party is one of those things that feels harder to plan than it actually is, especially at AMF, where a single booking covers the venue, the food, and the setup. If you are just starting your holiday party planning and want a clear path to getting it on the books, here is exactly how to plan a holiday party and book it, step by step.
Figure out the basics first
Planning a holiday party gets a lot easier once you sort three things: your rough date, your headcount, and the kind of gathering you have in mind. A smaller family or friends get-together might only need a lane reservation, while a bigger group calls for a dedicated event setup. Deciding these early points you to the right option and keeps the rest of the process simple.
Here is a holiday party planning tip worth remembering: lock in your date as soon as you can. The holiday stretch is the busiest time of year for the lanes, and the best dates fill quickly.
Booking, step by step
With the basics settled, the booking itself is quick. Here is how to do it:
Pick your setup. For a smaller group, begin a lane reservation. For a bigger celebration, look into a group event or a full holiday party package.
Choose your center and date with the Location Finder to find the AMF closest to you.
Plan the food. Check the menu so you can build the right food and drink options into your booking.
Confirm your holiday party reservation and get your date on the calendar.
Once it is booked, the center takes care of the setup, so you can relax and be a guest at your own party.
The best time to book your holiday party
During the holidays, timing makes all the difference. Holiday party reservations for the most popular dates go weeks ahead, so the earlier you book your holiday party, the more likely you are to land the date and time that work for your group. If your date is set, there is no reason to wait on your holiday party booking, since the calendar only gets tighter as the season goes on.
