How Starlight Amazing Race works
The Starlight Children’s Foundation believes that fun fights fear and wins every time. Our mission is to bring you some of the same magic in this Amazing Race style team building adventure. With Starlight themed challenges designed to bring out your inner child, this game is all about having fun while supporting Australia’s Children’s Charity.
The game begins with an entertaining Opening Ceremony hosted by one of our professional actor hosts. They explain the feel-good task of the day and get the group into teams. A giant hands-on puzzle is the first challenge you’ll be faced with, and then you’re off and racing.
Each team will need to decide the best route to take to complete each checkpoint. Along the way you’ll complete a creative Captain Starlight costume challenge, test your memory with our balloon animal flash card game, taste your way to victory with our Australiana food relay, and be tempted by our Secret Challenge envelope. And that’s just some of the fun!
Optional bonus challenges will see your team get up close and personal with the public in an attempt to earn bonus points. Add the elements of Lady Luck and a sneaky sabotage mission and we’ve just turned your next team building event into a game you can’t stop talking about. With a portion of your event cost being donated to Starlight, your team can play knowing you’re supporting a great charity at the same time.
Once teams have completed all their checkpoint challenges you make your way to the final destination. In our Closing Ceremony our hosts reveal the top placing teams for the Starlight themed checkpoint challenges, as well as any notable bonus points. It’s hard to know where you’re placed, bringing in all the suspense of a true Amazing Race.
Finally, the winning team is revealed and crowned victorious, receiving awesome medals to celebrate their much-deserved win. The Starlight Children’s Foundation Amazing Race is a corporate social responsibility event with big impact!
Why brands, teams, friends, and family can’t get enough of Great Race!
We used the Great Race once for a team building day and then just a few weeks later for a student engagement event because our crew had such a good time during our first booking! Brett was a legend at booking us in at pretty short notice both times and looked after all the details we requested! Zac was an excellent host on both occasions and all our participants both times had a blast, connected with each other and all around loved it! Highly recommend this company whose staff obviously love what they do and deliver a great experience!

A fantastic team building experience that everyone loved...all 140 of us! The hosts were charismatic and engaging, making it a super fun event. Our activities were built around our business and conference theme which made it very relative but in the most fun way! Thanks Great Race team!

We had an absolute blast from start to finish. The session was packed with fast-paced minigames, fun trivia rounds, and plenty of laughs that encouraged everyone to sometimes step outside their comfort zones in the best way possible. What stood out most was how inclusive and engaging the experience was – people of all personalities got involved and genuinely had a great time.

We had Great Race run an event for students and it was a huge success! We loved the challenges, the bonuses and the way everything was set up. Everyone had an incredible time, and it was just so much fun. Brett in particular helped us immensely with organizing the event. He was great at identifying exactly what we needed and was very friendly and approachable. Samm was the one who ran the event and she did so well! She was sweet and full of energy. Overall it was organized and executed incredibly well.

We used Great Race for an International Student event for our university, a fun way to explore their new home. The students who attended had an absolute ball, and many said it exceeded their expectations. Most students didn't know each other, but the interactive nature of the activity allowed them to engage easily. Brett and the team made it easy for us and organised everything for the day. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to organise a fun event that is a little bit different.

Just wanted to personally thank you for the session you and your team provided at the U@UNSW conference. It really met all our boxes and aligned with my debrief. Its especially refreshing to partner with an organisation who just get it without the need for micro-management. So… THANK YOU. I look forward to working with you guys again in the future.
