EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH
NGOC DANG
Congratulations to Ngoc Dang who is our LOLA employee of the month.
Ngoc has been working for LOLA as an ambassador for quite some time now and has had nothing but amazing feedback from every client she has ever worked with.
Just some of the many jobs Ngoc has excelled on have included James Blunt’s performance for Magic FM, private events for Chanel & Donna Karan and even the US Embassy!
Thanks Ngoc! Great job! A little something will be coming your way.
Also special mention to Stephanie Renwick and Luke (Hot Frosty) Deamer who have both also been ‘LOLA Stars’ this month and as a result we’re happy to offer a pay increase.
Well done guys!

LOLA takes off with Virgin Atlantic
HOSPITALITY STAFF FOR THE VIRGIN ATLANTIC CLUBHOUSE
A lucky team of LOLA Event Staff have had the pleasure of working with Virgin Atlantic at their award winning VIP Club House at Heathrow Airport.
Virgin approached LOLA with a very clear brief on the types of event staff they required. Crucial to the brief was that the staff matched the Virgin vision and the Virgin brand. Although, of course we all knew about the Virgin brand, we were blown away by the passion and commitment their team had to protecting the incredible product and service they provided. They hadn’t been voted World’s best Club House so many times for nothing!
We though we’d better impress.
We sent our finest 30 hospitality staff for selection. Ultimately the top 12 were chosen. These guys and gals had to have a mix of promotional staffing ability, hospitality experience and the ability to act as hosts and hostesses for Virgin’s many high profile and celebrity clients.
It has been a lot of fun so far and one of our promotional staff was even offered a role in a full time position with Virgin (which of course we were thrilled to support).
The Club House might be described as a ‘big boy’s playground. Constant fun, great service and hence, LOLA is looking forward to supplying our event staffing team there for many months to come.

Patek Philipe - WOW!
Since starting to send our regular staffing assistant out to Patek Phillipe – the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer in New Bond street, we’ve all been drooling over their amazing watches.
You know you’re dealing with some fancy equipment when the entire shop’s stock is kept in a vault!
Check out some beautiful time pieces at http://www.patek.com/
Pop in some time and hopefully a friendly LOLA face will be there to assist you.
LOLA at the Toy Fair
The LOLA promotions team has returned to its childhood and had a blast helping out at the Toy Fair.
Toy Fair is the only dedicated toy, game and hobby exhibition in the UK. The show is celebrating its 58th anniversary in 2011 from 25th-27th January, following its return to Olympia's Grand Hall in 2010.
Exhibitors - ranging from the large internationals to the new start up companies have been once again showcasing thousands of brand new toys, games and hobbies to the UK's largest gathering of toy industry professionals. And the LOLA promotional staff have been on hand to help promote the coolest new toys around.
Toy Fair provides visitors with a real overview and insight into a fun, innovative and exciting industry, as well as providing a great networking opportunity and the chance to touch, feel and experiment with the products of the future.
Most importantly, IT’S FUN!

LOLA Comedy Referees
Imagine you are a comedy referee giving out subtle alcohol advice before, during and after a local Dagenham FC match. Fun and cheeky but not overzealous, remember DON’T get in their faces, or annoy the supporters, maybe just some soft advice…..
This was a fun, slightly frightening task the LOLA Promotional Staff were contracted to do at last week’s big match.
The general message is that we understand that football fans enjoy a drink or two with the football, but try to drink in moderation, or do simple things to keep healthy, like having a night off the booze, missing a round or drinking some water (read the booklet for info).
Seems sensible, right? Good work LOLA lads you survived despite the uniform!

Tron Legacy after Party at the Tate Modern
LOLA Event Staff were dressed in some wild Tron-inspired outfits with Felix B, one of the duo who form Basement Jaxx pounding in their ears at the Tate Modern for the Tron Legacy after party.
Disney’s Tron: Legacy was always going to impress, and the production design and original soundtrack from Daft Punk did not disappoint. The LOLA staff really gave the huge crowd something to talk about as they looked glamorous and turned heads as usual. Our promotional models were dressed as characters from the movie and surrounded by multiple lasers which filled the gigantic space while the heavy bass of Basement Jaxx created a great party.
The room had Flynn’s Arcade set up where you could play the new Tron: Evolution on Xbox or go and have eye-lashes done like a Siren! And of course our promotional staff were on hand to assist guests with everything they needed.
Jeff Bridges, Olivia Wilde, and director, Joseph Kosinski were all at the party mingling with guests and occasionally even having a chat with some excited event staffing team members.
Well done to the Tate, Disney and of course our wonderful LOLA Event Staffing team on a great night’s work!

The Elton John AIDS Charity Ball 2010
The Elton John AIDS Foundation Winter Ball raised almost £590,000 for the Elton John AIDS Foundation last Saturday night and LOLA was there to help!
The LOLA Event Staffing and Promotional Staffing teams were very excited to be involved for the third year in a row with the The Elton John AIDS Foundation Winter Ball.
With Lily Allen sidelined and unable to perform, the man of the hour – Sir Elton himself stepped up to give a 45-minute set as part of the evening which involved a cocktail reception, dinner and auction in benefit of the Elton John AIDS Foundation. Guests were treated to some of his hits and a couple of new tracks from his latest album “The Union” with Leon Russell which has debuted at Number 3 on the Billboard Album Chart.
For the past 3 years our team of wonderful hosts and hostesses, event staff and promotional staff have wined and dined some of the world’s biggest celeb names on what they all regard as the best event of the year. Beginning with a manic make up and costume session and ending with very excited event staff and guests getting a special show from Sir Elton. The event was another roaring success this year for a very worthy cause.
