Team Bonding Events for Every Budget
We know that coming together as a team is important and taking the time to strengthen bonds and build relationships has many benefits, yet we appreciate not everyone may have big budgets to spend on large extravagant events! But who said they need to be big extravagant events to be effective? Let’s take a closer look at your options, from DIY in-office options and virtual events to larger-scale hosted activities.
DIY In-Office Team Bonding Activities
These activities can enhance teamwork, communication, and overall office morale without needing to leave the workplace.
- Desk Makeover Challenge: Give each team a theme and a small budget to redecorate their workspaces. This encourages creativity and teamwork while making the office more vibrant. Desk decorating is a popular pre-Christmas activity or even an opportunity to embrace Pride Month, whilst also celebrating the end of the financial year.
- Lunch and Learn Sessions: Host informal workshops where employees can share their skills or hobbies. It’s a great way for team members to learn something new and bond over shared interests, without having to outsource a guest speaker.
- Board Game Tournaments: Set up a variety of board games around the office and have teams rotate through different stations. This can include classic games like Scrabble, and Monopoly, or even card games like Uno.
- Office Scavenger Hunt: Create a list of items or clues hidden around the office. Teams race to find all the items or solve all the clues within a set time. Even simpler, create an Easter egg or candy cane hunt, with one special egg/candy cane winning the finder an extra prize!
- Cook-Off Competitions: Host an office cook-off where teams prepare dishes based on a theme or ingredient, they then bring in their creations to the office, so everyone gets to enjoy the delicious results. A great theme for this is to bring a dish from the country you’re a descendant of.
Now, if it seems a lot easier to outsource the activities, that’s where we come in! Let’s explore some of our most popular hosted events and break down their starting prices for groups of up to 25 people.
From $650
- Virtual Events: Online events are a great cost-effective way to bring a team together. There are a variety of activities you can take part in from the comfort of your own home or office, regardless of where you may be located. From a Virtual Game Show or an Amazing Race, to more creative events such as Virtual Cocktail classes or Virtual Paint & Sip workshops
- Team Trivia: A classic activity, and for a good reason! Trivia is lots of fun, it’s easy to set up and it can be done from anywhere. Choose a theme that you’d like to challenge yourself with (maybe even have some questions related back to the company), or let us decide, then get ready to go head to head in a battle of the brains!
- GO Scavenger: A treasure-hunt-style course, which gets you out of the office and exploring the city around you. Individuals will work with their teammates to take photos, solve cryptic clues, crack codes and upload videos, all activities that promote collaboration, communication and creativity.
- Game Show: A hosted event that brings together all the best bits from your favourite TV game shows and lets you experience them first-hand! This hosted activity can be brought to your boardroom or another location of your choice, or we can organise a venue for you. The games and activities are highly interactive and engaging and have a strong focus on problem-solving and teamwork.
- Lego Legends: An innovative team bonding activity that pushes groups to excel in design thinking, problem-solving and quick execution. Inspired by “LEGO® Masters,” this event encourages teams to tap into their creativity and relive their childhood fun!
- Minute to Win It: An energetic event inspired by popular TV shows, featuring a series of quick, fun challenges that test creativity, communication and quick thinking. Perfect for groups of any size, this event can be held at your chosen venue and promises an exciting, fast-paced experience with tasks like Face the Cookie, Cup Stack, and Shamrock Shake.
- Task Master: A dynamic event involving a series of engaging tasks, from solving puzzles to completing physical challenges, that tests resourcefulness, problem-solving skills and cooperation. Expect fun challenges that require quick thinking, ingenuity and outside-of-the-box thinking, all wrapped up in a bit of friendly competition.
- Escape the Office: A fast-paced indoor team bonding activity where groups must solve puzzles and complete challenges to “escape” the room before time runs out. This event fosters creative thinking, problem-solving, communication, time management and teamwork, offering an exciting and competitive experience for teams of any size.
From $1500
- Mini Olympics: Designed to ignite competitive spirit and build gold-medal-worthy teamwork through diverse and inclusive challenges. With the ability to be set up at most parks or ovals, this fun-filled outdoor activity will have your team feeling like true champions, sprinting towards glory and diving into teamwork.
- Amazing Race: Our most popular event, featuring outdoor race-style challenges, gets team members stretching their legs, exploring their city and collaborating with their teammates to solve challenges along the way. Each pitstop will have activities to complete, from creative photo challenges to strategic building challenges and more, ensuring there is something for everyone to get involved in.
- Survivor: A fully hosted team competition set at a beach or a park, complete with tribal councils and strategic challenges. Ideal for teams seeking physical and mental competition, this event emphasises leadership as tribes compete through a series of strategic games to avoid elimination.
- Charity Events: Perfect for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) these events promote teamwork and a sense of altruism through activities like Charity Auctions, Trivia Events, Casino Nights and more. Charity events provide an opportunity for your team to support local causes whilst creating a memorable experience and raising funds for those in need.
- Paint & Sip: A relaxing and social session where colleagues or friends can create art while enjoying wine. Perfect for team building or social gatherings, this event promotes wellbeing and creativity in a no-fuss setting, whether held at our studio or your chosen venue.
