Around The World
How well would your team do on a trip around the world? Pick a country, take on the challenge and earn as many points as you can. Expect trivia, funny photos, creative videos and plenty of laughs along the way.
A Team Building Trip Around the World
Around the World is a fast-paced team building activity where teams compete in challenges inspired by countries across the globe. Using our award winning app, you’ll travel from country to country, answering trivia and taking on photo, video and audio challenges to earn points.
One minute you could be singing an ABBA song in Sweden, the next pulling your best tequila face in Mexico or taking an upside-down team photo in Australia. It’s competitive, unpredictable and always good fun, with the best photos and videos saved for a showback before the winners are revealed.

How Around the World Works
Around the World is a fast-paced team building challenge where teams compete for points by completing trivia, photo, video and audio challenges inspired by countries across the globe. Everything is managed by our event manager, so your team can simply turn up, get involved and enjoy the competition.
Get Your Team Ready
After a quick briefing, teams choose a name, take a team selfie and join the game through our app. Your event manager explains how everything works before the competition begins.
Choose Your Countries
The world map is yours to explore. Pick a country, unlock its challenges and decide where your team wants to go next. In the in-person game, teams can tackle countries in any order.
Take On the Challenges
Test your knowledge with trivia, then get creative with photo, video and audio challenges. You could be filming a cheerleading routine in the USA, singing ABBA in Sweden or taking an upside-down team photo in Australia.
Compete for Points
Correct trivia answers earn points, but the creative challenges are worth even more. Your event manager scores the photos and videos as teams compete to climb the leaderboard before time runs out.
Showback & Winners
When time is up, everyone comes together for the showback. Your event manager reveals some of the best photos and videos from the game, usually to plenty of laughs, before showing the final leaderboard and announcing the winning team.
Why Choose Around the World for Team Building?
Around the World works particularly well when you need an activity that a mixed group can enjoy together. It combines competition, creativity and general knowledge, so different personalities have different ways to contribute. It can also be adapted to your group, venue and event format.
Something for Different Personalities
Not everyone enjoys the same type of team building. With trivia, photo, video and audio challenges in the same game, people can contribute in different ways, whether they are quick with an answer, full of ideas or happy to get the team laughing.
Great for International Teams
The country-based format is a natural fit for teams made up of different nationalities. It gets people talking about countries, cultures and experiences while giving colleagues plenty to laugh about together.
Works for 6 to 200+ People
Around the World works for small teams as well as large company events. Participants compete in teams of around 4 to 8, making it easy to involve a large group while keeping everyone part of a smaller team.
Flexible Around Your Event
Run it in-person, virtually or as a hybrid team building activity, with a typical duration of 60 to 120 minutes. For in-person events, the amount of movement can also be adapted to suit the space available at your venue.
Make the Game Your Own Want to bring your company into the experience? We can add your branding, company-specific questions and custom challenges to make the game more relevant to your team or event for an additional cost.

Event Formats
Choose the setup that works best for your team. Around the World can be fully managed at your venue, hosted remotely for a group together in one location, or run as an online team building activity for people joining from different locations.
Fully Managed In-Person
Our event manager comes to your office, hotel or venue with the iPads, runs the briefing and game, scores the creative challenges and finishes with the showback and results.
In-Person with Remote Host
Your team gets together in the same physical location while our event manager hosts the activity remotely. We take care of the briefing, game and results online while your teams compete together at the venue.
Virtual & Hybrid
Bring remote colleagues into the same game wherever they are based. Online participants play together in breakout rooms, while hybrid events combine remote teams with teams playing together in person.
