Top 11 In-Office Team Building Events
1. Betrayers In-Office Team Building Activity
Betrayers is an exciting indoor team building activity designed for most office spaces. It features a versatile layout and includes full theming and props to transform your office into an immersive setting.
In teams, participants face off in a series of action-packed and intriguing rounds, solving enigmatic riddles, cracking puzzles and scavenging for objects using an interactive map. The ticking clock adds an extra layer of excitement, but that’s not all – there’s an even bigger twist waiting for everyone…
Some of your teammates have secret agendas and are out to sabotage your efforts. The mission? Tackle the challenges and keep a keen eye on your teammates. At the end of this office team building event, you’ll get your chance to uncover the betrayers and seek some thrilling revenge during the suspenseful closing ceremony. If you’re the chosen one, will you play fair or do whatever it takes to win?
2. Master of the Tasks In-Office Team Building Activity
Get ready to laugh out loud with Master of the Tasks, a fun office team building activity that’s perfect for any space and adaptable for groups of 5 to 1,000 participants. We’ll transform your office into the perfect arena for endless fun, bringing everything to you, from props and materials to a PA system and a professional events team, complete with your own charismatic MC.
Teams will tackle a series of hilarious challenges, each judged by the Taskmaster.

The tasks may seem simple, but only one team will emerge as the ultimate Master of the Tasks!

In teams, you’ll have your own dedicated workstation where you’ll collaborate, follow instructions and assemble the equipment. The event layout is fully adaptable to fit your office space and accommodate the number of participants. Before the activities begin, a health and safety briefing will be provided to ensure everyone is safe.
After the office team building event, the GOTO Events team will deliver the items you’ve crafted to the nominated animal shelter. You’ll also receive photos and videos of the animals enjoying your creations, allowing you to see the real impact of your work.

6. Putt for a Purpose In-Office Team Building Activity
Putt for a Purpose is a unique idea for team building in the office that mixes mini-golf fun with a chance to collaborate on a charitable cause.

We can set up these holes to fit your office space, whether you prefer them all in one area or spread across multiple rooms. Our professional event crew will be on hand to ensure everything runs smoothly, complete with immersive theming and props.
After taking on fun and engaging team building challenges, each team gets materials like boxes, cans and packages from the food bank supply zone, along with other creative items. Teams use these to design and build their own mini-golf holes. Once all the holes are ready, everyone competes by navigating through the course and testing each other’s creations in a fun mini-golf competition.

We’ll turn your office into the Dragons Lair, where our host will welcome you and introduce the tycoon investors. You can nominate team members to join the panel or let our professional actors take on the role of judging the ideas.
After dividing your group into teams, they will receive the brief for the challenge. The task could involve creating an innovative invention or something connected to your business. From brainstorming ideas to researching, marketing and finance, teams will work together through every step of the process.
For the final challenge, each team will need to prepare a pitch to impress the investors. They’ll have a chance to rehearse before entering the room where the Dragons are waiting to hear their ideas. Will you convince the Dragons to invest or will they walk away?
