Quiz Night Work Christmas Party Ideas

Some of the best Work Christmas Party ideas revolve around team building exercises and activities. Others encourage competitive play among colleagues – both are incredibly good fun. A Trivia Night (or Quiz Night) complemented by dinner and drinks is a fun and competitive means of teaming up against the other members of the staff! With different themed rounds covering different genres and testing your co-workers’ common knowledge, this competitive (and often ruthless) Christmas party idea is unique and a whole lot of fun.

If you’re planning on throwing a party with a theme, we can help! We can host and manage custom Trivia/Quiz nights according to theme! Christmas themed Game Show LIVE games would be incredibly fitting for a corporate Christmas function. With a unique character host and tailored questions and games involving different members of the team and company inside jokes you’ll be giving your guests a truly original and memorable Christmas experience like no other. Talk to us today about how we could adapt this idea for your work Christmas party event.

Workshops and other fun learning activities

If you’re after something fun to do during the day or leading into the early afternoon, get your crew involved in a workshop! There’s a wide array of skills and workshops available – so choosing an activity for your team of unique individuals is easy. Relax with some light-hearted fun seeing how your work mates portray a beautiful work of art in a painting or drawing workshop! Pottery courses are another uniquely fun activity that anyone can do. Another fun and often hilarious idea is taking your team to a music studio and recording a work Christmas album! Or maybe you’d like to take your colleagues on an authentic cultural journey through food and cooking! Italian Pizza making workshops, cocktail making workshops and cheese matching workshops are just some of the ideas that explore food and activity combined. Food is something everyone can get behind and has brought groups of people together since the dawn of time. Raise morale by experiencing something unique together as a team.

We can help with these too! We have a wide array of different workshops available. If there’s a unique workshop or activity that you’d like to experience with your company, we’d love to hear about it and help make it happen!
