How We Planned HSF’s Carnival-Themed Company Picnic at El Segundo Recreation Park

We brought our full-service company picnic planning to El Segundo Recreation Park for a 300-guest event with the Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF), and it couldn’t have been a better fit. This carnival-themed company picnic had it all — classic carnival games, team-building activities, custom food stations, and seamless coordination from start to finish. El Segundo Recreation Park, right here in El Segundo, CA, is one of our favorite parks in Los Angeles County for corporate events. It offers the open space, coastal breeze, and shaded areas that make it ideal for hosting a high-energy, all-ages celebration.

Onsite Catering That Keeps Company Picnics at El Segundo Recreation Park Running Smoothly

From the themed tents to the efficient service, our company picnic food service brought delicious, fresh options to this large group gathering at El Segundo Recreation Park — keeping guests fueled for fun and games all day.

Soft Taco Bar – Fresh, Hot, and Prepared Onsite

​Our full-service company picnic catering at El Segundo Recreation Park featured an onsite build-your-own taco bar under a branded, tented food station designed to fit the carnival theme perfectly. Guests enjoyed four savory options — al pastor, chorizo, carne asada, and grilled chicken — all grilled fresh onsite by our professional catering team. Served with warm tortillas, traditional toppings, and house-made salsas, this setup delivered custom plates quickly and efficiently, ideal for a large group.

​Hot Dogs – Classic Carnival Favorites with a Twist

​Our all-beef hot dogs were served hot and fast from a branded carnival-themed tent with clear signage, part of our well-organized corporate picnic catering setup at El Segundo Recreation Park. The fully stocked condiment station kept guests coming back for more without slowing down the line.

Hamburgers – Juicy, Grilled to Perfection

​Alongside the hot dogs, our juicy Angus beef hamburgers were served from their own matching carnival-style food station. Both stations shared a convenient condiment bar featuring ketchup, mustard, relish, sauerkraut, chili, cheese, onions, and jalapeños — a perfect fit for the carnival vibe and a crowd-pleasing setup for any company picnic or corporate event.

​Beverage Stations – Keeping Everyone Hydrated

Our beverage stations at El Segundo Recreation Park were designed to keep everyone hydrated and satisfied throughout the day. Set up in branded tents matching the carnival theme, the stations offered a full selection of refreshing drinks including ice-cold lemonade, sweet tea, filtered water, and popular Spanish beverages like Jamaica and Horchata. Staffed by friendly servers, these stations kept the flow steady, ensuring guests never waited long to grab their favorite drink. Whether cooling off after games or enjoying some downtime, our beverage service was a key part of the full catering experience for this large company picnic.

The Ultimate Team-Building Centerpiece at El Segundo Recreation Park

For the Hispanic Scholarship Fund company picnic at El Segundo Recreation Park, our MEGA Field Day Games inflatable unit was the star attraction — a dynamic and versatile centerpiece designed for quick setup and endless fun. Unlike our traditional stage and backdrop setup, this inflatable masterpiece inflates quickly, letting us get right to the action with minimal delay.

This giant inflatable unit isn’t just eye-catching; it’s a multi-functional game station, backdrop, and photo zone all in one. With interchangeable wall coverings, we easily switch out from a variety of over 50 unique team-building field day games, tailoring the experience specifically for the 300 attendees and their interests.

The package includes:

• The impressive inflatable centerpiece hosting multiple games
• Two deluxe prize tables stocked with rewards for winners
• A high-energy, experienced host who leads, energizes, and engages the crowd
• A dedicated host booth with wireless mic for clear announcements and crowd interaction
• Surround sound satellite speakers strategically placed for perfect audio coverage throughout the field games area

​
In a 3-hour period, we custom-selected 12-20 games suited to the group’s demographics and energy, ensuring everyone from young adults to seasoned pros had a blast. The MEGA Field Day Games inflatable package isn’t just entertainment — it’s the glue that brings team building, competition, and excitement together to create lasting memories at corporate picnics in Los Angeles County.

Old Time Carnival Game Booths at El Segundo Recreation Park Company Picnic

No carnival company picnic at El Segundo Recreation Park is complete without the charm and energy of classic midway games — and we brought the full setup for this 300-guest corporate event. Our branded red-and-white carnival game booths added a nostalgic visual anchor to the picnic layout, drawing guests in for friendly competition and light-hearted fun.

Each booth featured timeless games like ring toss, bean bag throws, milk bottle knockdowns, and more — all professionally staffed and ready for action. Prizes were awarded at our custom prize tables, keeping the momentum high and encouraging participation from all age groups.
​
Positioned near the Fun Zone and MEGA Field Day Games area, the Carnival Booth Zone played a key role in our interactive, all-ages entertainment experience. As part of our full-service company picnic planning services, these booths are always a hit with corporate teams looking for crowd-pleasing activities that fit any theme and bring people together.

​Carnival Photo Booth Fun – Say Cheese at El Segundo Recreation Park

In the heart of our Fun Zone at El Segundo Recreation Park, guests found the perfect place to strike a pose and make memories — our Carnival Theme Photo Booth. Set under a custom-branded red-and-white tent clearly marked “PHOTO BOOTH,” this station became a non-stop magnet for smiles, team shots, and group fun throughout the company picnic.

We brought in a professional photographer, a bold carnival-style backdrop, and a full table of creative props — everything from oversized sunglasses to clown noses and cotton candy signs. Guests got unlimited photos with instant high-quality prints they could take home, giving them a personal keepsake from an unforgettable day.

This isn’t your average backdrop-in-a-corner setup. Our photo booth was a fully integrated part of the carnival theme company picnic experience, designed to be easy to find, fun to use, and visually aligned with the entire event layout. It's another example of how our full-service company picnic planning delivers not only entertainment, but interaction, branding, and long-lasting memories.

​Tables, Chairs & Layout That Work – Comfort Meets Style

Comfort matters when you’re hosting a full-scale company picnic at El Segundo Recreation Park — and our event layout made sure every guest had a place to sit, relax, and enjoy the day. We provided 60" round tables with eight folding chairs per table, set up to support easy conversation and maximum comfort for guests of all ages.

Every table was dressed in custom-fit red gingham covers, securely fastened so they stayed put even in breezy coastal weather. The look tied perfectly into the picnic’s carnival theme, creating visual consistency across the park grounds — and making every photo look sharp.

Our strategic layout placed tables within close proximity to the food service tents, beverage stations, and entertainment zones, allowing for smooth foot traffic and easy access to all the action. The seating design wasn't just functional — it was part of the overall event flow, helping guests stay connected to both the fun and their fellow coworkers.

With full-service company picnic planning, we don't just drop off tables and chairs — we design the entire seating experience to fit your space, guest count, and event vision. At this El Segundo event, it made all the difference.
