CHANEL is an iconic global leader in luxury, driven by a mission to create, develop, and distribute high-end creations across Fashion, Fragrance & Beauty, and Fine Jewellery. The House of CHANEL is deeply rooted in the history of savoir-faire and exceptional creation, which translates into a corporate culture where every detail, every experience, must reflect the highest standard of elegance and quality.
For this engagement, the internal team at CHANEL tasked Naboo with executing a Journée d'étude (Corporate Party) for a select group of participants. The ambition was precise: to secure a unique, private setting in the heart of Paris for a focused yet sophisticated social function, ensuring the atmosphere and the logistics were perfectly aligned with the brand's reputation for refined, uncomplicated luxury.
This required streamlined event management that could deliver a premium experience without friction. Naboo's role was to move beyond simple vendor booking to act as an extension of the CHANEL team, ensuring the chosen environment and services supported a productive and memorable corporate moment in an exclusive Parisian setting.
The successful planning of this corporate retreat demonstrates Naboo's ability to identify and secure unique, high-impact locations for companies aiming for strategic focus. Whether your team requires the prestige of an Executive Retreat or the tranquil setting of a Corporate Retreat in the Countryside, Naboo offers a curated platform to match your vision.

Les Maquereaux Rive Droite: The Perfect Setting
The successful execution of a high-value corporate event for a brand like CHANEL begins with an optimal location. Naboo identified Les Maquereaux Rive Droite in Paris as the ideal setting, specifically leveraging the Pont Supérieur (Upper Deck) to host the private function. Anchored centrally in the 4th arrondissement, this unique venue is a refined péniche (barge) that offers a panoramic, yet intimate, view of the Seine and the majestic Île Saint-Louis.
The venue's inherent qualities align seamlessly with the need for an elegant, executive retreat setting. Its "a quai" status provides the prestige of a floating venue without the logistical complexities of a cruise, while the top deck offers a bright, open, and modulable space. By choosing this location, the CHANEL team guaranteed their participants a dedicated, private environment for their evening, away from standard hotel ballrooms.
The selection of this unique, premium location, known for its high-quality, fresh, and house-made catering options, ensured the entire ambiance reflected the distinction and quality that the CHANEL brand embodies. This strategic choice simplified logistics while elevating the overall corporate party experience, demonstrating Naboo’s commitment to providing tailored, high-impact venue solutions.
CHANEL and their successful corporate party
For a company that defines global luxury, successful streamlined event management means executing a vision with complete precision and discretion. The event for CHANEL, a sophisticated corporate party for 30 participants, was scheduled for a single evening, a focused "cocktail dinatoire debout" (standing cocktail reception) in the heart of Paris. The primary challenge was translating the client's desire for a premium, non-traditional location into a flawless logistical reality, a core competency of Naboo's service model for executive retreat planning.
Naboo's comprehensive solution began with securing the exclusive privatization of the Pont Supérieur at Les Maquereaux Rive Droite. The planning ensured that every detail, from the 6 PM arrival to the 10 PM, was meticulously accounted for. This included the mandatory provision of a professional security agent for the evening, reflecting the high standards expected for any leadership summit or corporate function associated with a global luxury brand.
The catering was specified as a premium standing cocktail dinner paired with a selection of wine and beer, an elegant yet relaxed format that fosters genuine interaction and networking among the team. Naboo integrated the full service menu, including a set price per participant for both the cocktail and the beverage packages, simplifying the complex financial management into a clear, single-source quote.
The successful delivery hinged on Naboo’s ability to coordinate the unique elements of a péniche venue, from the specialized catering setup to the "accès au pont supérieur," all while providing the client with a single, clear point of contact through Naboo's event team.
The result was a sophisticated, high-impact corporate experience delivered on time and within budget, affirming Naboo's position as a trusted partner in high-stakes streamlined event management.
