Strengthen your team and department with a team-building event in Mannheim, the City of Squares
A1, B2, C3 – in Mannheim that’s not a puzzle, just an ordinary street address. Rather than conventional streets, the city centre is organised into rectangular blocks known as Quadrate, which gives Mannheim a style all of its own.
Perfect for puzzle fans who’d like to discover the City of Squares by tackling puzzles on an interactive iPad Rallye. Past Mannheim Palace and the Wasserturm (water tower) across the Paradeplatz to the Kapuzinerplanken, you explore the city’s planned baroque layout and solve exciting tasks that encourage team spirit, a good division of roles and creativity.
Where the Rhine and the Neckar meet, Mannheim has plenty of green spaces and riverbanks for sporty outdoor activities such as a raft-building event, a Drone Race or the 5-Kampf-Teamolympiade (five-event team Olympics). The Luisenpark, right next to the city centre, or the modern Jungbusch harbour make the perfect backdrop for an outdoor team event or your next summer party.
As a UNESCO City of Music and home of the band Söhne Mannheims, Mannheim brings together musical tradition, a lively cultural scene and modern ideas. Innovative venues such as the Jungbusch district, the SAP Arena or the Technoseum are a perfect fit for a quiz show, a Short Film Gala or a casino night. Creative activities such as team painting in our Kreativ-Werkstatt or the Domino Effect are ideally suited to these settings too. The result is a shared experience that gives motivation, team spirit and togetherness a lasting boost.
from €59Pick five challenges from a pool, such as the Mario Kart balloon hunt, Cube Challenge or pipeline building. Everyone chases points in changing teams, with medals, Crémant or a cup on request.
from €49Las Vegas without the risk: at authentic tables you bet, bluff and sweat it out with play money, playing roulette, poker, craps and blackjack.
from €59A large CRT television with an N64, a Carrera track and remote-controlled Mario Karts: across three challenges, teams go head to head in races that mix retro nostalgia with full-throttle action. The winning team gets to pop the corks.
from €49iPad, walkie-talkie and a virtual city map: teams hunt for points, complete tasks and answer questions about your company. Fifteen minutes before the end, the live scores disappear – and that’s when it gets really tense.
from €49Steer DJI drones through an obstacle course (touching an obstacle adds a time penalty), guide Sphero balls using an iPad and build a drone even though only half the team can see the instructions.
from €39Quizmaster, wireless buzzers and company-specific questions: teams guess their way through short rounds and funny video challenges. Points are paid out in sweets, but anyone who nibbles spoils their appetite for victory.
from €59Five winter challenges, from stacking giant presents to building a sleigh in Santa’s workshop: teams collect points towards the overall score, and everyone celebrates together at the awards ceremony, indoors or outdoors.
from €59Wheelbarrow course, hay bale run, milking contest and horseshoe throwing: teams collect points in proper farmyard challenges. The team with the most points takes the golden pitchfork home.
from €49Sandcastle building, a water relay and coconut boules: in small groups you go barefoot from station to station, to a soundtrack of summer hits. We bring the sun cream – safety first!
from €39Longbows with no sights and no technical gadgetry, four ways to compete and a balloon-shooting finale: after a briefing and some warm-up shots, even beginners hit the bullseye. Every team gets its own protective gear.
from €69Build your own cajóns from high-quality kits, then play rhythms in several parts as a team, guided by drum coaches. You can take your box drum home.
from €59Golf without a golf course: clubs in hand, you head over hill and dale, with team tasks such as the golf ball pipeline and ladder golf waiting along the way. In the end, the best team handicap wins.
from €39All the atmosphere of the pub, darts included: teams play 301 through a preliminary round and a knockout stage for the title of company darts champion, while a cheeky hosting team comments on every throw.
from €55Fly drones, send robotic balls racing each other or steer racing cars using an iPad: in this tournament, teams compete using VR, robotics and AI. You choose the stations.
from €35Every team builds its own section of a giant chain reaction out of dominoes, LEGO and Kapla planks. After the countdown, down it all goes – in the meeting room, the conference hotel or the office.
from €79Design a flag, christen your boat, start paddling: the teams race each other in dragon boats while a drummer sets the beat. The winning team gets Crémant, and the flags go on to decorate the canteen.
from €49Everyone gets a real djembe, and our drum coaches lead you step by step from a body percussion warm-up to the big final arrangement. Nobody needs any musical experience.
from €49The feel of curling, minus the ice: on mobile plastic lanes the teams slide their stocks towards the target – in a company building, a hotel or outdoors. Strategy, precision and plenty of cheering.
from €49Sherwood Forest by torchlight: after a short briefing from our trainers, even beginners pick up a longbow and take on the other teams.
from €99Time to clock off and join the video call: with the hosts broadcasting live from a real bar, everyone mixes two cocktails using the contents of the treat box, tries four craft beers and ticks off bingo numbers in between, until a cry of “BINGOOO” echoes through the call.
from €139We set up the stalls right on your company grounds: candied almonds, mulled wine and a winter BBQ, plus an Eisstock curling lane and archery by torchlight if you like.
from €69From wooden planks, hemp ropes, securing straps and barrels, the teams build their own raft, hoist the pirate flag and put on a show to christen it, then take to the water for the regatta.
from €49Soccer-Toss, Quiz-Ball and more: you choose the football activities from over a dozen challenges, and we build them into a tournament that runs from the preliminary rounds to the final – with a golden cup on request.
from €59Geocaching with an expedition rucksack: teams head out into your city in search of the secret of Christmas, solve puzzles and track down hiding places. Homemade Glühwein (hot mulled wine) keeps the cold at bay.
from €55Backpack, walkie-talkie and GPS device: teams hunt for hidden caches, solve puzzles based on their surroundings and tackle challenges together along the way, whether through the undergrowth or the urban jungle.
from €49Soft balls down long corridors, minigolf balls through the spa area, glowing balls in a darkened meeting room: six golf stations turn your office or hotel into a golf course. Do mind the coffee mug!
from €59Teams line up along six rods inside inflatable human table football arenas and play a tournament, with commentators, football hits and Mexican waves for company. The winners walk away with the golden cup.
from €49Frozen lake, snowball pipeline, guess the spice and Santa charades: all teams start at their stations at the same time and chase points. Santa hats are included.
from €49Build company cars, pull off an emergency operation in the Emergency Room or raise a tower: you put your course together from over 20 tasks. And the only way to get it done is together.
from €84The wooden kit lands in your home office, a live host talks you through building the insect hotels over a video call, and a beekeeper tells you about local flora and fauna. The package also includes seeds for a bee-friendly meadow.
from €49Your own table football championship: every team founds a club, name and all, then battles through the group stage and knockout rounds while commentators guide you through the tournament like a Saturday-night football show.
from €79Your very own table football table is built from a kit, then christened in a tournament. The fastest team to finish building gets to play at home in the opening match, and the tables can be donated afterwards.
from €49Each artists’ collective paints its own canvas around your theme. Then the canvases come together as one large artwork for your company – with a bird’s-eye drone photo, if conditions allow.
from €59The creative box with two canvases, acrylic paints in twelve colours and brushes arrives at home in advance, then everyone paints live on a video call, guided by a professional artist. An online exhibition of your artwork rounds it all off.
from €49Write the script, pick costumes and false beards, shoot, edit: every film crew makes its own short film with an iPad and a collection of props. At the end, all the films are screened at your very own film festival, nominations included.
from €35As a new Europol task force, the teams hunt a master thief: armed with an agent’s case, a puzzle box and a postcard under UV light, they solve puzzles against the clock – and must tread carefully, because their adversary is hot on their heels.
Whatever the occasion and the size of your team, Mannheim has the right venue for an unforgettable team event – from creative indoor workshops and exclusive events in historic surroundings to adventurous outdoor activities. Does your team enjoy exploring on foot? On an interactive iPad Rallye you discover the city centre laid out in squares, with sights such as Mannheim’s baroque palace or the television tower (Fernsehturm). Puzzles and challenges along the route encourage communication, teamwork and creative thinking in a playful way. If you’re looking for a historic backdrop for your team event, you’ll certainly find one in Mannheim. The baroque palace and the Alte Feuerwache (old fire station) offer fascinating spaces for indoor team events. How about a Short Film Gala in the palace’s magnificent Rittersaal (Knights’ Hall), or a Mario Kart event across the Ehrenhof? Mannheim has plenty to offer outdoor fans too. Whether a little way out on the banks of the Rhine and Neckar or close to the centre in the Luisenpark, this is where your team really gets moving. Sporty activities such as our raft-building event, archery, the 5-Kampf-Teamolympiade or the Drone Race make ideal additions to your summer team event. If you’re after sport and adrenaline, head for the Hockenheimring or the SAP Arena. In the home stadium of the Adler Mannheim and the Rhein-Neckar Löwen, teams get a taste of ambition, team spirit and plenty of action. Why not start your event with a sporty iPad Rallye through the stadium and finish with a darts tournament in the Sky Lounge?
Barockschloss Mannheim is one of the largest palaces in Europe. Where lavish celebrations and rustic knight-themed banquets once took place, you’ll now find a historic venue for your exclusive team event. A company party at Barockschloss Mannheim is certainly one to remember. The magnificent Rittersaal (Knights’ Hall) or the elegant Gartensaal (Garden Hall) are ideal for a quiz show, our Kreativ-Werkstatt or a Live Escape Game. Would you like to move part of your event outdoors? No problem! The Ehrenhof (main courtyard) is a wonderful spot for activities such as our Mario Kart Race, archery or a Drone Race.
The SAP Arena is the home of the handball club Rhein-Neckar Löwen and the ice hockey club Adler Mannheim. It’s an exceptional event venue for any team looking for a sporty experience. You can hold an interactive iPad Rallye through the arena – past stands, playing field and VIP hospitality boxes – or use exclusive lounges and hospitality boxes for company parties, workshops or conferences. And here’s another idea: a Casino Night in Mannheim.
At Christmas, the SAP Arena offers something special: play Eisstock curling, the Alpine cousin of curling, right on the ice where the Adler Mannheim usually train, then let the evening wind down with a Christmas quiz show in the Sky Lounge.
If you’re after adrenaline, excitement and thrills, the Hockenheimring is just the place. The legendary racetrack makes a thrilling event venue for your team. From the panoramic terrace of the south grandstand to the pit complex, your department or management team gets a close-up taste of motorsport. How about a fast-paced Soapbox Derby, a Mario Kart event or a Drone Race? All of these combine perfectly with the racetrack’s one-of-a-kind setting. A team event at the Hockenheimring brings your team closer together and gives everyone an exciting experience to remember long afterwards.
