1. Polar Rescue Escape Room

During an arctic expedition, your group becomes separated from the guide. With a storm brewing, you hike for hours before finding a small hut. Inside, you find a radio and an explorer’s bag full of their belongings. But there is no power. Using the items you found, you must crack the code for the generator and power the radio to call for help. You have 60 minutes before the heavy snowfall makes the hut unreachable.

Virtual Christmas Parties FAQs

What is a virtual Christmas party?

A Virtual Christmas party is a fun online activity that brings remote teams together to celebrate the festive season through themed games, challenges or workshops. Everyone joins from their location, anywhere in the world, using their own devices. At GOTO Events, we offer a wide range of fun and engaging virtual Christmas team activities, all hosted in real-time by a professional MC.

Why organise a virtual Christmas party?

Many companies aim to unite their teams at Christmas to celebrate the season, reward hard work and enjoy a break from the usual routine. However, for remote or global teams, organising an in-person gathering can be both challenging and costly. Our virtual Christmas events offer the same level of fun and engagement as in-person celebrations, featuring festive themes, interactive activities and collaborative teamwork. Over time, these events can boost morale, strengthen relationships and foster a sense of unity, even when team members are spread across various locations.

How do virtual Christmas parties work?

It’s easy! Before your event, we'll provide you with all the necessary information, including a link for you and your team to join on the scheduled day. The event will take place on your chosen online meeting platform, whether that's Zoom, Teams, Google Meet or another. All events are hosted by a fun, upbeat compere who will run the show, keeping everyone entertained and engaged and ensuring the entire experience is smooth and enjoyable. Just like in-person team building events, participants are divided into mini teams to take on challenges and compete against each other.

How many people can take part in a virtual Christmas party?

The number of participants can vary based on the specific virtual Christmas team building activity you choose. We can accommodate groups of up to 1,000 people. Our app-based events can handle up to 250 participants in a single game, but we can run multiple games simultaneously to cater to larger groups.

What online meeting software do you use for remote team building events?

We can host your virtual Christmas party on the online meeting platform of your choice, including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex or Google Meet. While Zoom is our preferred platform due to its speed and reliability, we can easily adapt our virtual events to work seamlessly on the platform your company uses.

What technology do participants need at home for the virtual Christmas party?

To join a virtual team building event, participants need a stable internet connection and a device with a webcam, like a laptop or tablet. If the event requires our custom app, a smartphone is also necessary to download and use the app. Our live hosts and tech team are always on hand to ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Is a webcam required for the virtual Christmas team activities?

Yes, we strongly recommend using a webcam to ensure you get the most out of your virtual Christmas party experience. It enhances interaction and engagement, making the event more enjoyable for everyone.
