Every year the same question arises: where to organise the company’s Christmas dinner and what to do? Although it’s an important tradition, many teams today are looking for more creative and memorable alternatives. After all, celebrating the festive season can (and should) go far beyond a meal with colleagues.
At Boost Events, we believe Christmas is the perfect time to innovate in corporate experiences and give your team a truly out-of-the-box team building.
1. Traditional dinners Vs. innovative experiences
The classic Christmas dinner is a moment of conviviality, but it often becomes predictable: you eat, drink, raise a toast, and then everyone heads home. While pleasant, it doesn’t necessarily create lasting memories or strengthen the bonds between colleagues.
On the other hand, creative team building activities allow you to:
- Break the routine and surprise the team;
- Stimulate cooperation through shared games and challenges;
- Create unique stories that will always be linked to the Christmas spirit.
2. Out-of-the-box Christmas team buildings
At Boost Events we have designed programmes that combine fun, mystery, and lots of interaction, perfect to turn a Christmas dinner into an unforgettable celebration:
-
Cluedo – Dinner with the Killer: A dinner turned into an investigation game, with actors, props, and a crime to solve. While enjoying the meal, participants take on roles, interrogate suspects, and join forces to discover the culprit.
-
Escape Hunt Dinner: Inspired by famous escape games, this programme combines the setting of a dinner with riddles, locks, and hidden clues. Your team will have to work together to solve the mystery before time runs out.
-
Who Killed Santa Claus: A festive and humorous version of the “Murder Mystery” concept, where the challenge is to find out who is responsible for Santa’s disappearance. Perfect for dynamic teams with a good sense of humour.
-
Taskmaster – Christmas Edition: Inspired by the popular TV format, participants face hilarious and creative challenges. From improvisation to imagination, every task is an opportunity to laugh, collaborate, and reinforce team spirit.
3. The benefits of celebrating christmas creatively
More than just a social gathering, these experiences bring real benefits to your team:
- Strengthening cohesion through collaborative challenges;
- Boost creativity with unexpected games;
- Create a shared memory that reinforces company culture;
- Break the routine and offer something different at a special time of year.
This year don’t stick to the traditional model. A dinner can be just the start of a memorable evening if combined with an immersive team building experience.
At Boost Events, we design Christmas programmes that bring together fun, interaction, and festive spirit, transforming your celebration into a unique memory. It’s time to surprise your team with a creative Christmas team building. Ready to plan the experience everyone will remember?
