Top 10 indoor team building events in Milton Keynes

Still struggling to choose the right activity for your team? We’ve compiled our top 10 most popular indoor and outdoor team building activities in Milton Keynes to help narrow down your options for you!

1. Master the Task indoors

Based on the popular TV show, Master the Task really does require thinking outside the box! Your team will have to interpret the brief and come up with creative ways to complete the task at hand, all under the watchful eye of the ‘Task Master’, who will judge your success! This activity invites your team members to work together outside of their usual groups, drawing upon their critical thinking and puzzle-solving skills to come out on top.

2. Missing Link

Much like a giant version of the childhood favourite game ‘Mousetrap’, this collaborative event aims to get all teams to put together their own section of a ‘machine’ to create a chain reaction. Ultimately, it will help everyone feel included and like their contribution matters to the overall outcome. In Missing Link, every team member is a crucial cog in the success of the overall project!

3. Cocktail Making

A cocktail-making class is the perfect escape from day-to-day office life. It gives your employees the chance to let their hair down and get stuck into learning a new skill. It’s certain to get them laughing and bonding, and it may even develop a new passion for them to pursue outside the office with their colleagues.

4. Escape The Crime

If you’re looking for an immersive, unique team-building activity, why not try an incredibly popular crime-themed escape room? Aside from getting them chatting and bonding outside the office, an escape room is a great way to subtly build core skills. Your employees will be tasked with using their observation, problem-solving and communication skills to think outside the box and solve the crime together. This is also a great way to get those who would not normally share ideas talking and contributing to the overall success of the task.

5. Insights Discovery Profiling

Build confidence amongst your teams with our Insights Discovery Profiling. In this more traditional team building activity, you will learn about how to engage with others in your team from their unique personality ‘colours’. Similarly, it can help you find out how others can best communicate with you, as well as help you to better understand your customers. This makes it an invaluable experience that can increase employee confidence and workplace relationships tenfold.

6. Balloon Bonanza

This high-energy, creative challenge can be used to kick-start a conference, energise your delegates after lunch or create a fun finale! Our circus performers will guide guests through making a balloon dog and guitar before judging the interesting creations! Being involved in a shared activity will give your team members plenty to talk about, and their creations are sure to spark plenty of laughter and encouragement.

7. Bigger Picture

You could also bring out your team’s creative side with our Bigger Picture activity. Your employees will need to work together to recreate a picture using limited information; this can be tailored to suit your brand or any messages you want to get across. The activity helps to build on important skills, such as clear and accurate communication, encouraging employees to get involved and recognise the part they play in group tasks within and outside of the activity.

8. Body Percussion

Body percussion is an effective way of ensuring all your delegates get up, wake up and interact. This makes it a perfect start to any conference. This fun-filled musical session is delivered in a light-hearted manner that ensures everyone is well and truly invigorated. It can also help bring out your employees’ creative sides and get them coordinating to be in a rhythm with each other, both in and out of the activity.

9. Boomwhacker Blast

No musical skills are needed for this event! All guests will be quickly transformed from a group of musical novices into a pulsating beat. The Boomwhacker Blast is a fast-moving and energising rhythmic experience that uses brightly coloured musical tubes to get everyone smiling and having fun whilst they are working in sync.

10. Creative Challenges

Creative challenges are a selection of fun tasks designed to challenge your guests in a constructive, creative, and interactive session. Challenges could be creating drag cars to race, making balloon animals, or turning one of your colleagues into a clown! The challenges incorporate business outcomes and can be mixed to match your time frame and objectives.

Top 10 Outdoor Activities in Milton Keynes

1. GPS Treasure Hunt

A GPS treasure hunt is the perfect way to take in the contrasting urban and rural scenery in Milton Keynes. Your teams will work together to find the X that marks the spot, drawing on their observation and strategy skills. This is especially important when it comes to navigating around Milton Keynes’ infamous roundabouts!

2. Charity Bargain Hunt

A charity bargain hunt can be a great way for your team to support a good cause and take in the scenery, as they navigate around predetermined charity shops to find the best bargains. Once the time has run out, the teams will then donate their items to the chosen charity for the day. This will make your teams feel like a part of something bigger as they give back to charities in the local community, or your company’s chosen charity. The hunt itself encourages them to communicate and share ideas, and can be a great way to break the ice as they compare their finds.

3. Ninja Workout

Put your team’s fitness to the test and take advantage of Milton Keynes’ rural spaces with our competitive Ninja Workout game. Your team members will navigate a range of wacky obstacles, inspired by the TV game show, sharing laughter and encouraging each other along the way. This unique activity will be sure to get your employees talking and is a great way for them to blow off some steam.

4. Game Your Thrones Outdoors

Coupled with the acres of outdoor space at venues like Kingfisher Country Club, this game gives your team the perfect opportunity to live out their kingdom-conquering fantasy. Game your Thrones builds on your team’s out-of-the-box thinking, teamwork and communication skills as they work together to beat the opposition and take the Iron Throne.

5. Garden Games

If you’d like to enjoy your chosen venue’s sprawling grounds in a more peaceful way, Garden Games is a great option for you. Your team can play relaxing lawn games like croquet, or seek thrill and excitement from riding on a bucking bronco or a surf simulator. Whatever activities you choose, they’re sure to help break the ice and get your team talking and laughing together. We can even offer candy floss, popcorn, ice cream and a Pimms bike to give the event a fairground-like feel, so your employees can let their hair down and truly bond.

6. Cryptic Treasure Trail

If you’re looking for a more traditional treasure hunt, a Cryptic Treasure Hunt could be just the idea for exploring the Milton Keynes area. Your team will have to take it back to basics, drawing on their map-reading skills and teamwork to find their shared goal: the treasure. The hunt also consists of clues, designed to challenge their critical thinking skills and get them sharing ideas amongst themselves.

7. Master The Task Outdoors

Another creative way to use your Milton Keynes surroundings comes in the form of our spin on the hit game show, Master the Task. Your team will be given a series of challenges designed to draw upon their physical and mental skills, involving the whole team as they compete for prizes. The activity is designed to help build on desirable skills like teamwork, with the team having so much fun that they don’t realise they’re doing it!

8. Company Fun Days

Why not make a day of your team-building exercises with a Milton Keynes-based company fun day? You can plan activities and competitive games, with music and decorations to add a festive feel to the event. The activities will be suitable for both adults and children, so why not make it a family affair? We can even provide shows and entertainment, as well as catering. Ultimately, the goal of a company fun day is to create a day that brings your employees together; it will be sure to be an event they won’t forget.

9. School Sports

If you’re looking to take your team members back to their childhood whilst enjoying the grounds of our Milton Keynes venues, a school sports day is the perfect choice. They can space hop, three-legged race and relay their way to bonding as a team, competing to be the overall winner with plenty of laughs along the way.

10. Wiped Out

If you’re looking for a more extreme sports-based challenge, then our wacky Wiped Out obstacle course is perfect for you. This activity relies on your physical ability but is ultimately a zero-pressure, maximum-enjoyment activity that will be sure to get your teammates laughing and encouraging each other in no time!
