Walking dinner after sport: how catering completes your corporate event
A tennis clinic is the activity. A walking dinner is the finishing touch that makes the difference. Here's how catering becomes the highlight of your event.
After an energetic tennis clinic on the court, there's nothing better than catching up together over a carefully curated walking dinner. The endorphins are still flowing, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the barrier to engaging with colleagues has disappeared. Catering isn't just an afterthought at a corporate event — it's the moment where connection deepens. Plan your corporate outing in Amstelveen or view all corporate events.
"The best conversation at a corporate event doesn't happen in the meeting room — it happens at the walking dinner."
Why catering makes the difference
A corporate event is judged on three moments: the activity, the atmosphere and the food. Great catering elevates a fun sports outing to an unforgettable experience. It's the moment where informal conversations take place, where hierarchy disappears and where relationships are strengthened — exactly what a corporate event should do.
- •Food creates an informal setting that stimulates conversation
- •After sport, the atmosphere is relaxed — the ideal moment for networking
- •Quality catering shows you invest in your team
- •A walking dinner combines dining with movement and networking
Walking dinner: the perfect format after sport
A walking dinner fits seamlessly after a sports programme. Your team moves freely, chooses from various dishes and chats about the rallies and matches. It's more informal than a sit-down dinner, yet more elegant than a standing buffet. The perfect middle ground for a corporate event.
- •4 to 7 courses — from amuse-bouche to dessert
- •Seasonal ingredients from local suppliers
- •Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options always available
- •Live cooking stations for an extra experience
From coffee break to full dinner
Not every event calls for a walking dinner. That's why we offer catering for every moment of the day. A luxury coffee reception on arrival, a healthy lunch between sessions, or a comprehensive buffet to close. Everything is custom-made by our hospitality team.
- •Welcome: coffee, tea, fresh pastries and smoothies
- •Lunch: salad bowls, wraps, soup and seasonal dishes
- •Drinks: Dutch bitterballen, sharing platters and hot & cold buffet
- •Dinner: walking dinner, sit-down or BBQ arrangement
Food & beverage as the upgrade to your event
We always advise our clients: invest in the catering. The difference between a good and a great corporate event often lies in the culinary programme. A walking dinner after sport transforms an afternoon of tennis into a complete evening programme that your team discusses for weeks.
