Christmas Team Building Activities & Group Events
Bring your team together this holiday season with activities that are fast, fun, and easy to run. Whether your group is in the office, fully remote, or a mix of both, our holiday events are designed to be flexible, engaging, and stress-free.
How to plan a Christmas party that’s more than dinner and drinks
Dinner and drinks are fine, but they rarely get people talking beyond their own team. A hosted activity does. Here’s how to pick one in three steps.
1. Decide what the event is for
Is it a thank-you after a long year, a chance for new hires to meet everyone, or a straight celebration? A relaxed, chatty goal suits a quiz or a social. If your team likes to compete, go for an escape room or a scavenger hunt with a live leaderboard. And keep it inside work hours if you can, so it feels like a reward rather than one more thing in the calendar.
2. Pick a format that fits where your people are
- Everyone in the office: Office Games Holiday Edition runs in the space you’ve already got, with holiday photo and video challenges on people’s own phones.
- Everyone remote: Escape: Holiday Edition puts teams of 4 to 6 into five festive rooms of riddles and codes, with a Remote Host on video, in 45 minutes.
- A mix of both: choose something built for individual devices and one shared leaderboard, like The Winter Games, so remote colleagues aren’t just watching the office party through a webcam.
- Out and about: Festive Explorer is a holiday scavenger hunt around any downtown that starts and finishes at your office, venue or restaurant.
3. Choose an activity people will actually join in
Trivia is the easiest win, especially on Zoom. In Trivia Challenge: Festive Edition, a Remote Host takes teams through 12 holiday rounds in 45 minutes, and it works on Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet. For a longer session with photo, video and audio challenges, Team Quiz: Holiday Social runs for 75 minutes. Hosted beats DIY here. Someone else runs the scoring and keeps things moving, so the organizer gets to play too.
Christmas party ideas for teams in Toronto
December in Toronto calls for an indoor plan first. Office Games Holiday Edition runs in your own office, and Escape: Holiday Edition works in a meeting room as well as online. If your team’s keen to get outside before dinner, Festive Explorer can start at the office and finish at the restaurant you’ve booked, with our Wet Weather Guarantee behind it.
Virtual Christmas parties for teams across Canada
When your people are spread from Vancouver to Halifax, run the party online so everyone’s on the same leaderboard. A hosted 45-minute escape room or holiday quiz in the early afternoon Eastern time falls inside the working day across the country, and nobody has to travel in the busiest weeks of the year.

How much does holiday team building cost in Canada?
Our holiday activities start at $22 per person. Escape: Holiday Edition, Trivia Challenge: Festive Edition and Office Games Holiday Edition include the host, with a $440 minimum spend, so a team of 40 pays $880 plus tax. Activities that don’t include the host add $500 for a Remote Host or $1,400 for an Onsite Host, which comes with a higher minimum spend. You’ll see the exact price for your group size on every activity page.
What are good corporate holiday party ideas beyond dinner and drinks?
Give people something to do together before the food arrives. An escape room like Escape: Holiday Edition, a holiday scavenger hunt like Festive Explorer that finishes at the restaurant, or Office Games Holiday Edition in your own office all take 45 minutes to two hours. Teams get mixed up, there’s a winner to cheer, and dinner has something to talk about.
What are good virtual holiday party ideas for remote teams in Canada?
Pick a hosted activity that everyone plays on their own device, so colleagues from Vancouver to Halifax are on the same leaderboard. Escape: Holiday Edition is a 45-minute virtual escape room. Trivia Challenge: Festive Edition is a 45-minute holiday quiz. Team Quiz: Holiday Social runs for 75 minutes with photo, video and audio challenges. Book a slot in the early afternoon Eastern time and it’ll fall inside the working day right across the country.
What are fun holiday party games for adults at the office?
Office Games Holiday Edition turns the office into the venue: teams race through holiday photo and video challenges on their phones and climb a live leaderboard. It doesn’t need any kit or an extra room. For a quieter crowd, an in-person round of Escape: Holiday Edition or a holiday trivia session works well around the party itself. A gift swap or an ugly sweater contest costs next to nothing on top.
What are good holiday party ideas for a team in Toronto?
In December, start indoors. Office Games Holiday Edition runs in your own office, and Escape: Holiday Edition works in a meeting room or online, both in 45 minutes. If your team wants to get outside first, Festive Explorer is a holiday scavenger hunt on your own phones that can start at your office and finish at the restaurant you’ve booked. Our Toronto team building page covers routes such as the Distillery District and the Financial District.
What's a good holiday trivia game for a work party on Zoom?
Trivia Challenge: Festive Edition. A Remote Host runs it over Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet, splits everyone into teams of 4 to 6 in breakout rooms, and takes them through 12 holiday rounds in 45 minutes. Players answer on their own phones, so nobody’s squinting at a shared screen, and it works for up to 300 people. It’s $22 per person with the host included and a $440 minimum spend.
