Looking to recognise and reward your team in a meaningful way? Our award ceremony services are designed to help you ignite passion and recognise the achievements of your team. With our creative approach and tailored solutions, we can help you create a memorable award event that will leave a lasting impression on your team.

Recognition and awards ceremonies can be as big or small as you require – from a simple online PowerPoint announcing your top employees to an all-singing, all-dancing evening event complete with comperes, awards and entertainment. If you want to go all in on your own MTV Music Awards or Oscars, we’ll do everything to arrange it!

memorable experiences

There’s lots to consider here: prizes, podiums, comperes, lighting, musical stings and entertainment. All of these help to create the right atmosphere for the awards section of your event.

With our award ceremony services, we can help with all of that and with dressing the room to create a suitably celebratory vibe. And we can take care of all the other details too – whether it’s branding, videos, acceptance speeches, envelopes or lifetime achievement awards.

Client Kudos

Our guests were delighted with the day of Highland Games, the team of maximilion was fantastic. I will recommend them 100%.

Horizons – TPG Scotland

Overall Maximillion were fantastic to work with, they were really flexible and happy to work within our event timings and budget. I had several planning calls with them in advance so felt safe in their hands.

Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

University of Edinburgh

Lee Hamill, Director of Finance

Thank you to Mike, Ross and Sandy from Maximillion for the team building in the afternoon, murder mystery that evening, Belbin Team Roles next morning, a fantastic team building session in the afternoon and, finally, a great barbecue that evening provided by Norton House. Although some of us were a bit slow of the mark the second day, the same positive attitude and enthusiasm from day one prevailed and I think we all got something out of it. It was clear to me that everyone was communicating and working together better by the end of the afternoon.

Abbot Risk Consulting

John Abbot, MD

Very well organised in the lead up and on the day of the event. Clear communication throughout! The team delivered a fantastic Highland Games event on the day that everyone enjoyed. Thanks to Mike, Rhys and the team!

TotalEnergies

Everything from start to finish was amazing and Jenny kept in constant contact – couldn’t fault Jenny or the company whatsoever. Organisation/Communication was 100% perfect.

White & Mackay

Fantastic day and really enabled people to get to know each other and have a laugh at the same time. Exactly the aim!

University of Edinburgh

With restrictions in place that curtailed our previous plans for the company’s 50th anniversary we were delighted to find a great alternative and a team well-equipped to deliver an event for such a significant milestone. The Maximillion team worked closely with us, making suggestions and sharing ideas to help make our virtual away day celebrations a real occasion. The feedback from the events was really positive and it was great to have a chance to get together in such a fun environment when all the teams have been working so hard over the past months.

Risk Refrigeration

Nadia Rae, Group HR Director

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. This is the second time using Maximillion and on both occasions they have made the event! So much fun and so engaging. The feedback from all who attended was this was a brilliant session. Huge thanks to all involved.

Abertay Housing Association

Maximillion was great! They were responsive and accommodating and we would definitely use them again.
