Discover Wuppertal, build teamwork and bring your colleagues closer together
A tour of Wuppertal is a proper rollercoaster ride for any company – and not just because of its exciting and varied places for team events. Nestled in the Bergisches Land, this city of 360,000 people is fondly known as “Germany’s San Francisco”. That has a lot to do with its plateaus and valleys. But just like its American namesake, Wuppertal is famous for a very special way of getting around – the Schwebebahn, its suspension railway. In this remarkable city, even the journey between the many event venues becomes a highlight for your team. Impressive industrial history, historic architecture, countryside on the doorstep and a lively cultural scene all help make the city what it is.
Set off on a thrilling canoe trip along the Wupper, or a fast-paced team rally through the charming landscape of the Botanischer Garten (botanical garden). It gets just as adrenaline-fuelled with your very own soapbox derby – the city’s ups and downs make Wuppertal a particularly attractive place to hold one. Explore Wuppertal’s Old Town around the historic Luisenviertel, or take inspiration from cultural highlights such as the Historische Stadthalle, which also makes a perfect backdrop for your next conference or corporate event. The spacious Barmer Anlagen or the Skulpturenpark Waldfrieden offer a chance to unwind, or to try outdoor adventures that build teamwork and togetherness.
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 €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 €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 €49In the “Tower of Power”, a team builds a tower using a special crane rig, and the other tasks only work out when everyone pulls together. Every group has its own trainer and plans its strategy before trying it out.
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 €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 €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 €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 €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 €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 €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.
Wuppertal’s varied topography, cultural heritage and green cityscape are really reason enough for an outing together in the “cradle of industrialisation”. But alongside industrial history and nature, the city also has a huge range of exciting event venues to discover. You’re sure to find the right setting for your event here – whether it’s a team-building event, a conference or a Christmas party. The Historische Stadthalle impresses not only with its architecture but also guarantees stylish rooms for any team size and type of event. The Gräfrather Hof shines just as brightly, with an exclusive atmosphere and personal service for up to 200 guests. If you’re looking for a charming retreat on the edge of the city, the Waldhotel Eskeshof is the one to try. With nature close by and its traditional half-timbered architecture, it’s a peaceful, idyllic place to spend time together as a team. The Flemings Hotel and the Vienna House in the city centre, or the event venue Hevra Wuppertal with its outstanding food, are also ideal for your next corporate event. You can experience the city’s lively cultural scene up close at the Färberei: as a “centre for integration and inclusion”, it offers concerts, art exhibitions and cultural events.
No visit to Wuppertal is complete without a ride on the world-famous Schwebebahn. Better still, a ride on this extraordinary landmark fits perfectly into many of our events. On our exciting iPad Rallye, you explore the city on your own and take on a variety of challenges. Float as a team from one station to the next to solve our tricky puzzles and team challenges linked to each stop. But don’t worry! Re-enacting the legendary “Wuppersprung” (leap into the Wupper) of Tuffi the elephant is not on the programme.
Whether it’s our action-packed teamio 5-Kampf in the Barmer Anlagen, or more relaxed activities such as the Kreativ-Werkstatt (creative workshop) or Business-Yoga in the Landschaftspark Hardt, your team will find room here for getting active, having fun and recharging together. The Botanischer Garten, in the middle of the park, is especially worth a visit. Take in the rich variety of plants and a breathtaking setting, with views of the Villa Eller, the Orangerie (orangery) and the Elisenturm.
There’s plenty to love about the Waldhotel Eskeshof, from its rustic charm to its natural surroundings. It’s also the perfect destination for conferences, seminars, workshops and company parties of all kinds. Modern facilities, flexible room layouts and dining tailored to your group make this a venue we warmly recommend. Here, the idyllic surroundings of the Bergisches Land meet the down-to-earth atmosphere of the Ruhr area and turn your team event into something out of the ordinary.
