Add coloured ticket strips and bright yellow napkins into the mix to really bring your theme to life. Paired with circus themed team building games, this themed corporate away day will truly blow your teams minds.
3. Squad Games
Squad Game is an immersive team building event that has been based on the Korean TV sensation where the contestants battle it out in a series of playground style games in a bid to stay ‘alive’ and avoid ‘elimination’.
Played as teams (or squads), each game has a school yard craze as its core element, with the emphasis on fun as you pitch your skills head to head against the opposition.
Success in each game will be rewarded with a token place in your Squad’s Piggy Bank. The squad with the biggest piggy bank at the end of the activity will be crowned the champions.
Scrapheap Challenge is a collaborative outdoor event, which promotes both creativity and teamwork to create a shared outcome at the end of a fun-filled event.
It is designed to bring the group together, by pooling resources and ideas, in order to overcome the daunting task that is facing them!
This team building event will likely take some guests out of their comfort zone, with an amount of trial and error likely to challenge guests creativity and patience – which is where collaboration between the wider group will become crucial, as they swap both ideas and equipment to overcome the challenge ahead!
5. Wiped Out
Inspired by the popular game show ‘Total Wipeout’ this team building event can be thrown into your corporate away day to help challenge your teams to take on inflatables like no other!
Wiped Out is a lively, colourful, and competitive outdoor corporate event which will allow your guests to have lots of fun and leave in high spirits.
6. Missing Link
Missing Link tests time management skills, communication and cooperation, which emphasises the benefits of collective input and the power of teamwork.
As the teams interpret their briefs, they will soon realise that they must communicate and cooperate with, rather than compete against, the other teams in order to build their module. The module will then interconnect with that of the others to create the ‘Missing Link’.
With each team accused of committing a murder, there is an instant reason to solve this mystery, but with one opportunity to crack the clues and codes to identify the actual murderer and exonerate their team, will your employees survive and work well together under pressure?
After an initial briefing and introduction from our Event Manager, the scene is set and teams are each allocated their very own ‘crime scene’ comprising a kitchen sink and locked cupboards, which contain a variety of further props which may or may not assist with the task ahead.
Hold the door for our latest team building event that works outdoors in summer, and indoors when winter is coming. This team building activity can be held indoors or outdoors, making it the perfect activity whatever the weather.

Corporate away days can help to benefit a team in numerous ways, they provide teams with an opportunity to enhance their bonds and interact with one another outside of their normal working environment.
A corporate away day can help to break down department divides and barriers to communication that may exist in the workplace environment. Teams often find that they understand each other better and are more sympathetic towards their co-workers after participating in a corporate away day or team building activity.
When you are planning an away day or team building activity, you should try to consider what you want to get out of the day, the location the activity will take place in (ensuring that it is accessible to all team members), the balance between presentations, talks and fun activities, and setting a sustainable pace for the day that ensures you can fit everything in you wish to do without burning your team members out.
Corporate away days paired with team building activities can also help you to show that you care about your employee’s work-life balance. They can also be a useful way to recognize and celebrate your staff and reward them for all of their hard work.
