As Leicester has a great variety of hotels, function rooms and conference spaces, there is a lot of choice for indoor team building options:

1. Indoor Crystal Challenge – An indoor version of our Crystal Challenge game, this fun and challenging activity is based on the hit TV show from the 1990s. Participants must take on challenges across 6 zones, collect as many crystals as possible to gain as much time as they can in the infamous dome. They must then collect as many golden tickets as possible to win the game. Great for team bonding, strategic thinking and team collaboration.
2. Indoor Soapbox Derby – Another indoor version, this time of our popular Soapbox Derby event. Employees are split into teams and presented with the task of building a soapbox car, capable of being raced. Working against the clock, participants must work together in preparation to race. Once teams are ready, they enter the race and the winners are crowned. Great fun, creative and relies on good team communication. 
3. The Lost Pages – This intriguing tabletop team building event requires participants to take on personas as they work through the diary of an explorer and decipher riddles to find keywords. They must then enter the keywords into their iPad to progress. Requires strong teamwork and strategic thinking – but also great fun!
