‘C’ is for Croxchella

No Glasto? No problem. At Croxley Park, Croxchella is coming to save the day.

Croxley Park’s Croxchella Festival event has been devised by the Activate team, which manages the Park’s events programme, focusing on 12 large events per year, working closely with the on-site team to develop concepts and oversee the delivery of each event.

Croxchella is designed to help employees, their friends and family, and the local community, get together in a celebration of summer. The mini-festival will take place on 31st July, when for one big day, Croxley Park will be transported to the Colorado Desert (home of the Coachella festival) for a festival-packed experience of music, dancing, eating, and chilling.

Open to all, the event will feature a giant Ferris wheel, glitz and glam in the form of glitter artists, airbrush artists, hair braiders, body marbling, live entertainment & DJs on the main stage, a silent disco, food trucks, Aperol Spritz Bar, giant festival flags and dressing, festival giveaways and so much more.

As guests flood into the festival field, giant colourful C-R-O-X-C-H-E-L-L-A letters will set the stage for this show-stopping and social-snapping festival, providing an Insta-worthy selfie-opportunity.

Giant 6m high silk flags will fly high above the bustling crowds and entertainment, creating a rainbow of colours and drawing attention from far away, helping revellers find their way to the festival grounds.

Our Emma Henson, Activate’s Place Marketing Manager, said:

“As our largest workplace engagement initiative yet, we’re excited to see Croxley Park buzzing with even more energy and joy. Our commitment to bringing workplaces to life continues to grow, with Croxchella being a shining example of how we create memorable experiences for communities.”

Building Community: the Workman way

At Workman, we are committed to creating an outstanding customer experience for occupiers and our Building Community campaign showcases the benefits that this commitment to the occupier experience can have.

A sense of place and togetherness creates community within buildings. This ethos has informed the development of our occupier engagement initiatives, which aim to bring people together across commercial property.

By raising the standard of occupier engagement, our property management style and creative approach deliver services that make Workman-managed properties much more than simply a desk and a chair.

Today’s commercial property must offer stimulating, social environments that support employees’ and customers’ physical and mental wellbeing in an environmentally responsible way.

Property management strategies should be designed to create communities where buildings add value to their end-users’ experience and environment, persuading them that the workplace is once again a thriving hub.

Our Building Community magazine has been produced to highlight the value of, and our expertise in, creating environments where occupiers want to stay. In it, we consider;

  • the role of technology in creating a great occupier experience,
  • why regularly seeking occupier feedback is vital, and how best to it with Real Service,
  • the role commercial destinations can play in creating positive social impact within their communities,
  • some of the most effective ways to build real communities within commercial locations.
