Top 10 Xmas Party Ideas For 2017
If your struggling for ideas for this years office Christmas party then take a look at some of our most popular events that you can do this year plus some other unique options that will surely be a hit.
1. Adventure Quest Adventure Quest is a combination of a scavenger hunt and an amazing race. Using an interactive app that uses GPS technology and image recognition functionality, teams will need to unlock a variety of challenges at gps activated hot spots strategically located around the city or location of your choice. They will be on the edge of their seat, as they answer questions, complete video and photo tasks, get hit with problem-solving and random on the spot challenges. This event can be run as a fully managed event or if budget is an issue, you could opt for a cost effective self-managed option. You can choose to end the event in any location meaning you could finish at a pub or restaurant to continue the festivities after your challenge.
2. Bike Build or Toys For Kids The Gift of Giving? Xmas is a time for giving so why not make a difference and build some bikes or some toys for some deserving kids. Imagine the smiling faces of these kids as they are presented with their brand new bike or some brand new toys as an early Xmas present. A truly heartfelt program that highlights the true meaning of Xmas and teamwork.
3. Lets Get Cooking – Masterchef Style! Let’s get cooking offers an opportunity to come together, to be creative and to share their culinary skills through a fun team based “Mystery Box” challenge. In the Let’s Get Cooking challenge teams will be required to create a dish for themselves and the judges out of the main ingredients supplied in their mystery boxes. This program is a great, fun event for all involved and the best thing is, that the teams get to sit down, socialise and enjoy good food and good company.
4. Barefoot Bowls A great way to unwind and celebrate! Barefoot bowls is a perfect event for any age or fitness levels and provides the perfect opportunity for socialising and fun in a relaxed setting. Afterwards enjoy some cheap drinks from the bar and order some food or organise a BBQ for an awesome xmas sundowner.
5. Survivor Can your team Outwit, Outplay and Outlast all others? With the Australian version of Survivor being televised right now, it’s the perfect opportunity to build that excitement and tell your team that they will be playing survivor. Whilst no individuals will be voted off, this team vs team event is sure to be a memorable event. Finish the day with a BBQ and drinks for a great finish to the day.
6. Scavenger Hunt An oldy but a fan favourite! You can’t go wrong with a scavenger hunt as it provides fun and enjoyment for all. If you have done a scavenger hunt before then try our new “Adventure Quest” program. One of the greatest things about a scavenger hunt is that it can start and finish in any location so why not finish your event at a bar or restaurant to celebrate with your team.
7. Win It In A Minute High Energy and Lots of Fun Teams will race the clock as they try and complete a series of 1 minute games. Its a fantastic fast paced event that provides lots of laughs and excitement. It can be conducted as a stand-alone program or could form part of a lunch or dinner type event.

Finish the day with a BBQ and drinks for a perfect finish to the day.
9. Amazing Race There are lots of twists and turns in the all famous Amazing Race. Like the TV show, teams will race around the city completing checkpoints with the ultimate goal of getting to the finish line first. Teams will have lots of fun as there are a variety of challenges that will test them throughout the race. Why not finish the race at a pub or restaurant to celebrate.
10. Pirates Of The Swan Set sail and enjoy the open water. For those that live in Western Australia, treat your team to a day on the Swan River. Boat cruises are very popular for end of year events but why not change it up this year and get your team to sail in Pirates of the Swan. In this exhilarating program teams will be hands on in sailing their boats around the Swan River in a quest to solve the Pirate code. This is a unique experience that will be remembered for a long time. Finish the day with a BBQ and drinks overlooking the magnificent Matilda Bay!
