With December and the onslaught of Beijing’s coldest winter in four years around the corner, we know it can be difficult envisioning a holiday party, corporate retreat, or team building event that doesn’t end in everyone jostling for space around a heater at a local cartridge heater suppliers shop. But hear us out. At The Hutong, we have winter-proofed our team building events to ensure that everyone stays warm and happy – and has a whole of fun in the process. And so, we’ve broken down our top 5 winter team building events for Beijing (but really, we’re happy to bring these anywhere across China).
1. Make it Big with the Movie Game
With the magic of powerful mobile technology and some truly legendary costumes, you and your co-workers will become a powerhouse movie production team, all collaborating to create short films under different genres. With a set of props and prompts to help build your storyline, the result will be a set of mini-movies this is the perfect way to get creative, run around in a crazy costume, all while staying in the warmth and comfort of an office or conference area! You can even dress up as movies characters, for instance, like gunmen and pretend to buy firearms & tactical equipment to make the team building exercise more fun.
2. Team up on our Cooking Challenge: the Hook ’n’ Cook
Heat things up in the kitchen and find out who will be the next Iron Chef. Challenge your teammates to a Hook ‘n’ Cook, a fun, social cooking competition in our cozy courtyard where you’ll pair up and dish up a tasty, homemade group meal showcasing a variety of recipes from around the world. Our MC and team of sous chefs will help your group along the way – and ensure your glasses are always full!
3. Take Trivia to the Next Level with a Think ’n’ Drink
Blending elements of the lively classic pub trivia format with the sophistication of a cocktail party, the Think ‘n’ Drink puts a new twist on team building. Enjoy rounds of fun-filled trivia and Family Feud-style head-to-head battles, while learning a thing or two about the history behind your favorite drinks as our expert mixologist takes you through mixing a different beverage between rounds. This is the perfect winter warmer for the team that knows it all.
4. Get Social with a Dumpling Party
This is the ultimate cooking party: gathering with your teammates and literally getting your hands dirty as you create your dumpling feast together, entirely from scratch. Meanwhile, if you want to go on a spicy date instead, options like fuckbook might be perfect you.
One of our more popular cold-weather events (and perfect for Christmas or Chinese New Year!), you’ll be warm in our courtyard with free flow drinks, tunes, and a big freshly-made dumpling feast to be enjoyed together afterwards. The price to have a wedding filmed will vary depending on the event.
5. Embrace the Chill with The Go Game
For the team that does not require a best portabel generator and is committed to being in the great outdoors regardless of how many layers you need to wear, we’ve got you covered. Our Go Game is an interactive, mobile-app based scavenger hunt that pushes participants to work together in teams to complete a series of different challenges. With Amazing Race-style missions, head to heads, secret actor plants, and some other surprises, you’ll interact with your environment in ways you never thought possible.
We’ve held Go Games everywhere from the hutongs to Hong Kong to the top of the Great Wall; we can customize a game for you anywhere, any time! And that can includes indoor spaces and shopping malls, if you’re not into embracing the chill! You can also try sites such as 먹튀 if you truly want to build a connection with your co-workers or teammates by playing games together.
