Why NewWave
Premium events, no nasty surprises.
There are hundreds of corporate event providers in the UK. Four things set NewWave apart, and they’re the four things organisers ask us about on the first call.
01
We'll look after you
Our office team looks after you through the planning, then a dedicated Event Manager is on site on the day to keep everything running properly.

Everything in one quote
No juggling suppliers. We bring your AV, hosts, kit, catering and venue into one clear quote, sorted from the first call.
03
Loads of event ideas
Team building, away days, Christmas parties and summer parties. We've got an event for every team, run by the people who planned it.
04
No nasty surprises
What we quote is what you pay. And if an activity won't suit your group, we'll tell you, because we'd rather get it spot on than just say yes.

FAQ
The bits people
ask before signing.
Can't see your question?
The easiest place to start is a quick call, usually about eight minutes. You don’t need to have it all figured out. Tell us roughly what you’re planning and we’ll talk you through what’s worth knowing. If we’re a good fit, brilliant. If not, you’ll still come away knowing more than you did.

What are corporate team building events and activities?
Corporate team building events and activities are hosted experiences that get people together outside the usual work routine. They can be competitive, creative, active, problem solving or just properly good fun. Most teams book them to help people talk, lift morale, reward staff, connect departments or give everyone a shared day they’ll actually remember.
What types of corporate team building activities do you offer?
We offer a wide range of corporate team building activities across the UK, including outdoor team building events, indoor team building activities, multi activity fun days, company away days, evening entertainment, charity and CSR events, wellness sessions, creative workshops, Christmas parties, inflatables, gameshows, race nights, casino nights and dragon boat racing. If you’ve got a venue, we can bring the event to you. If you haven’t, we’ll help point you in the right direction.
What are the best corporate team building events for work teams?
The best corporate team building event depends on your group size, venue, timings and what you want the day to do. For high energy groups, outdoor events like It’s a Knockout, sports days, dragon boat racing and multi activity fun days work well. For indoor or mixed ability groups, gameshows, murder mysteries, race nights, casino tables, creative workshops and challenge style events are strong choices. If you’re not sure, tell us your numbers, location and rough goal, and we’ll recommend the best fit.
How do I choose the right team building activity for my team?
Start with the basics: how many people are coming, where it’ll happen, how long you’ve got, whether you want indoor or outdoor, and whether the day is about fun, teamwork, celebration, CSR or problem solving. Then think about your team’s comfort levels. Not everyone wants something highly physical, and not every group wants anything too serious. We’ll help you narrow it down so the event suits the people in the room, not just the person booking it.
How many people can take part in your corporate team building events?
We can run corporate team building events for small teams, large departments and full company events. Some activities work best for smaller groups of around 10 to 30 people, while others can scale to hundreds or even 1,000+ participants with multiple activity zones, heats, rotations or hosted challenges. Tell us your expected numbers and we’ll recommend events that suit the size properly.
Do you run team building activities for small groups?
Yes. Small group team building activities can work brilliantly when you pick the right format. For smaller teams, we usually recommend interactive games, creative workshops, problem solving challenges, indoor activities, treasure hunts, food and drink experiences, or hosted competitive formats that don’t need huge numbers to feel lively.
Can you run corporate team building events for large groups?
Yes. Large group corporate team building events are one of the things we do best. For bigger teams, we can split guests into groups, rotate them around different activities, run tournament style formats, create activity zones or build a full multi activity day. We also provide the event team, kit, setup and structure needed to keep the day moving properly.
How much do corporate team building events cost?
The cost of a corporate team building event depends on the activity, group size, location, event duration, staffing, equipment, travel, venue requirements and whether you’d like extras such as catering, AV, branding or multiple activities. We’ll always quote around your brief so you can see what’s included before you book. No vague packages. No hidden surprises.
How long do team building activities usually last?
Most team building activities last between one and three hours, depending on the format. Short energisers can fit into a conference agenda, while larger outdoor events, multi activity days and company away days can run for half a day or a full day. We can build the timings around your agenda, venue access, lunch, dinner, awards or evening entertainment.
Can you bring the event to our office or venue?
Yes. Many of our corporate team building events and activities are fully mobile, so we can bring the hosts, equipment and event setup to your office, hotel, conference venue, sports field, outdoor space or hired venue. Some activities need more room, power, parking, water access or ceiling height than others, so we’ll check the practical bits before confirming the best options.
Can you help us find a venue?
Yes. If you don’t already have a venue, we can help you work out what type of space you need and suggest suitable venue options. The right venue depends on the activity, group size, location, budget and whether you need indoor space, outdoor grounds, catering, accommodation, parking or conference facilities.
Do you offer indoor team building activities?
Yes. Indoor team building activities work well in offices, hotels, conference centres, meeting rooms and winter events. Popular indoor formats include gameshows, murder mysteries, creative workshops, race nights, casino tables, quizzes, problem solving challenges, wellness sessions and conference energisers. They’re also a smart choice when you want something weather proof and accessible.
Do you offer outdoor team building events?
Yes. Outdoor team building events are ideal for summer parties, away days, company fun days and larger groups that need room to move. Options include It’s a Knockout, sports days, dragon boat racing, treasure hunts, target sports, inflatables, country pursuits, raft building and multi activity outdoor events. We’ll advise on space, timings, safety and weather planning before the day.
What happens if the weather is bad?
We plan outdoor events with the British weather in mind. Some activities can carry on in light rain, some can be adjusted, and some may need an indoor backup or alternative format if conditions are unsafe. If weather is a concern, we’ll recommend sensible options from the start rather than pretending every outdoor activity works in every condition.
Are your team building events suitable for all ages and abilities?
Yes, we can recommend inclusive team building activities for mixed ages, mixed fitness levels and different confidence levels. Not every event has to be physical. Many formats include creative, strategic, hosted or problem solving roles so everyone can contribute. Tell us about accessibility needs, mobility concerns or anything your team may be nervous about, and we’ll point you towards the right option.
Do people need any experience to take part?
No. Our corporate team building activities are built for normal work teams, not professional athletes, performers or puzzle champions. The hosts explain everything, keep the energy up and make sure people know what to do. Some events are more active than others, but we’ll always help you choose something suitable for your group.
Can the event be branded for our company?
Yes. Many events can be tailored with company branding, team names, branded scoreboards, themed rounds, bespoke questions, company messages, awards, colours or content linked to your event theme. The level of branding depends on the activity and how much notice we have, so it’s best to mention this early in the planning.
Can team building activities run alongside a conference, dinner or awards evening?
Yes. Team building activities can work as a morning energiser, afternoon breakout, post conference activity, evening entertainment or part of a full away day. We can also build events around dinner, awards, drinks receptions, Christmas parties and company celebrations so the activity fits the flow of the day rather than feeling bolted on.
How far in advance should we book a corporate team building event?
The earlier the better, especially for summer dates, Christmas parties, large groups, venue led events and anything that needs extra planning or branding. As a guide, six to eight weeks gives more choice, but we can often help with shorter notice depending on the activity, location and availability.
Do you provide the staff and equipment?
Yes. We provide the event team, hosts, equipment and setup needed for the activity you book. Depending on the event, this can include an Event Manager, activity instructors, AV, props, safety equipment, scoring, briefing and pack down. We’ll confirm exactly what’s included in your quote.
What areas of the UK do you cover?
We run corporate team building events and activities across the UK. Whether you’re planning an office event, conference activity, company away day, Christmas party, summer event or charity team building day, we can help build a format around your location, group size and venue.
What should people wear for a team building event?
It depends on the activity. For most indoor events, normal workwear or smart casual clothing is fine. For outdoor, active or water based events, we usually recommend comfortable clothing, flat shoes and weather appropriate layers. We’ll send clear guidance before the event so your team knows what to expect.
