No it isn't weird at all. In fact tons of companies have had or will be having theirs in the coming days. This is pretty normal really as December can be chaotic and especially if your trying to book a place that holds lots of people.

nope, had one yesterday
haha, i started 2 days after the christmas party at brian jessel's.
everyone was suppose to head out to the showroom on thursday afternoon to hear the winning prize draw. was standing on the side with dinan and richard (sorry bro, dont know ur username) and was saying, if i happened to win, then the draw would have definiately been rigged! hahahaha
It was cool though, Alex from our shipping team won some tickets to the canucks. like near playoff time!!!

No. 5 Orange.
j/k. Usually someone's house. We did cruises and restaurants for a while, but it never worked out. It's a good excuse for some people to show off their house.

some cheap companies do it sooner, pay less for the ballroom
or maybe they didnt book on time, so they are stuck with earlier date.
another reason to have it sooner,,, (not in nov, thats too early) is people go on vacation close to 24th

the reason why businesses have staff parties this early is because they dropped the ball. period.
all the weekends in december at the x restaurants are already booked. try booking a staff party somewhere in december right now? if you find one you're one lucky bidness.
since whoever was in charge didn't bother to do this staff party early... you are stuck with a sunday night? staff party...
that's too bad.

How many of your companies actually refer to it as a "Christmas " party and not something PC like "End of the Year " party or some such?

If i remember correctly, when my mom worked at a restaurant 12 years ago. They had their Christmas/New Years party in mid January.
Plus my friend had his company Christmas dinner already on Nov 28. So its not weird to have company dinners really early before Christmas or really late after Christmas. After all Christmas is a time to spend with family.
My company dinner is on the 11th!

Who cares when it is, at least they're throwing a Christmas party at all. A lot of companies didn't have one last year nor will they this season.
