How Brain Olympics works
If your team loves solving riddles, completing puzzles, and battling it out with brainteasers, this Olympic-themed event will see them competing in a range of events as they try to snatch the gold medal.
The game begins at the Opening Ceremony, with clips from actual Olympic Games ceremonies displayed on an interactive presentation. Then it’s time for the first brain teaser ‘event’, where teams will need to sprint through a series of Wacky Word puzzles. Teamwork and communication is key here, with too many puzzles and not enough time, the teams that are able to work together effectively will win gold! Then it’s time for a Winter Olympics event… Hidden inside a recording of a famous ice skating performance are two different types of challenges: one that requires attention to detail, one that requires good riddle solving. Teams will need to divide their group into these two types of players and trust that each type will complete their side of the challenge correctly. This is a perfect lesson in delegation, trust and team cohesion.
Next, our Decathlon event will have teams solve 10 different riddles, brain teasers and puzzles. But with only 1 minute after each question, teamwork is key to earning the points needed to secure a win.
With the games drawing to a close, teams will be faced with one final hurdle: our Closing Ceremony observation challenge which is sure to spice up your life. A fun and entertaining way to round out the Brain Olympics, and a final chance for teams to earn points.
And then it’s time for a Closing Ceremony of our own, the moment all teams have been waiting for: the final awards ceremony! The winning team is revealed and stand proud in front of their competitors, claiming the victory and taking home the gold.
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.
