Written By Sara Iannacone

Budgeting and tracking expenses for your company retreat can be a major headache. Simplify with this all-inclusive, easy-to-use template (plus an example budget).

We recently shared how to make an offsite budget. Now that you’re diving in, you may be feeling a little overwhelmed. The good news? That’s totally normal. Offsite budgets are complicated—there’s no question about it.

But the even better news? We’ve created an all-inclusive company retreat budget template to help ease the complexity of offsite budgeting.

Our team of expert planners have helped many companies organize, brainstorm, and plan their budgets, as well as track them. We’ve taken that knowledge and turned it into a simple, downloadable resource.

How to use our company retreat budget template

Inside the template, you’ll find two tabs. One is a blank template ready for you to fill in. The second is a sample event budget that we’ve filled in with example figures so you can see what it looks like completed and examine helpful formulas to input into your own company offsite budget.

You may not need all the line items we’ve outlined, or you may need to customize it a bit, as each meeting is distinctly unique. The goal is to give you a jumping off point that will demystify the company offsite budgeting process and save you some time and effort creating a tracking document of your own.

Need some extra help? Get in touch with our offsite experts.

Instructions: open the template link, click “file,” and select “make a copy.”

DISCLAIMER: The figures in the budget template are completely random and not indicative of real BoomPop company retreat costs. If you do want expert help planning your company retreat, our team will work with you to create a retreat that’s on budget, every time.
