Work Christmas Party

Celebrate the Season with Fun & Festive Team Activities

The staff Christmas party is often the most anticipated work event of the year – a reward, a celebration, and a chance to wrap up the year with laughter and connection. The drinks might flow, but it’s the memories and the team bonding that really count.

Gone are the days when booking a bar tab and ordering a few pizzas would pass as a party plan. If you truly want to show your team how much they’re valued, it’s time to think outside the tinsel-covered box.

Isn’t it time your work Christmas party was something people actually look forward to? Something that everyone remembers, for all the right reasons.

At Great Race, we’ve transformed the traditional corporate Xmas party into something extraordinary: part celebration, part team experience, and entirely fun. Our creative game-design elves have been busy crafting inclusive, laugh-out-loud Christmas party activities that get everyone involved, even the office grinches.

Let’s celebrate the year that was with belly laughs, friendly competition, and a healthy dose of festive spirit. Browse our awesome range of group Christmas party ideas and plan a work Christmas event that everyone will talk about well into next year.

About Our Work Christmas Party Events

Building a cohesive team isn’t a one-off event, it’s a craft. Like perfecting a croquembouche, it takes layers, timing, and care.

We can’t promise to solve every team dynamic in a few hours, but we can promise a brilliant time together that brings people closer and boosts morale. Each event helps uncover hidden strengths and connections within your group, proving that even the smallest shared experiences can spark big shifts in how people collaborate.

These foundations of effective team building activities make our events memorable, meaningful, and genuinely unifying. With an exciting, festive lineup of work Christmas party activities for adults, we’ve got the perfect event to suit every team, every vibe, and every budget.

Whether you want to get outdoors, stay cosy indoors, or bring everyone together virtually, we’ll help you design a company Xmas party that delivers unforgettable moments.

Our themed games blend puzzles, challenges, and festive fun to bring out the laughter and teamwork that make the silly season so good. From cocktail-inspired trivia to hilarious outdoor adventures, we promise a celebration that exceeds expectations.

Want to combine your Christmas party with a Secret Santa or end-of-year awards? We can help you build that into your plan too.

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.

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.

Overall it was a perfect team day and all members of my team certainly enjoyed being out of the office and making their way around the city! Discovering new spots that they had not encountered previously, i.e. a couple of landmark around The Rocks. On behalf of everyone in the team, I would like to say Thank You very much for facilitating such a great day out for us… Cheers!

All the teams had SO much fun! We got some great feedback saying how much everyone enjoyed their day! The boys did an awesome job, and we’ll definitely be recommending you to others. Hopefully we can do a round two one day! Thanks for such a great day!

Our group absolutely enjoyed every part of the race. We experienced so much laughter, joy, banter and competitiveness. The fact that all of the challenges involved everyone, made it enjoyable. Our host Sam was THE BEST!!! She made the race exciting and made us all laugh especially at prize giving!! It’s been three days since the race and everyone’s still talking about it and are already talking about a rematch.
