Team building in Barcelona

A gear with a missing piece is a machine that no longer works or performs as it should, and nobody wants that.

If your work group consists of more than one person, you already have a team, and information, coordination and a good atmosphere among all members are key to its proper functioning.

And how do you do this? With fluid communication and spending quality time together. It's not enough to have a good chat over your morning coffee; you need to interact with your colleagues and enjoy yourselves.

Team building activities aim to do just that: spend time outside the office, do something different, but share time and effort with your colleagues.

Here we bring you the best and most interesting team activities to do in the most cosmopolitan city in Europe: Barcelona.

Types of team building activities in Barcelona

There are many types of team building activities, from cooperative to competitive, and they all work because the key is the work and the good atmosphere they create.

Escape Room Barcelonés (from Barcelona)

Barcelonés is not just about the city, but also about the setting. There are many escape rooms in Barcelona, but some focus solely on team building and are set in early 20th-century Barcelona.

With several mysteries to solve, mixing intrigue with history, you can choose between collaborating with your colleagues or solving the puzzles competitively to find out which team can solve everything first.

Having a specialised company means that everything revolves around your comfort, knowing the importance of team building activities. So you won't be missing anything.

Gymkhana

We continue with the adventures, but Barcelona has to be experienced, felt, so there's nothing better than walking through its streets, parks and hidden corners.

A good example is one of the city's best-known treasure hunts, which takes place in Collserola Park, or Parc de Collserola. Starting from Baixador de Vallvidrera, you will have to solve challenges and tests to move on to the next one, in a fun challenge that will make you work as a team while enjoying the beauty and good weather of Barcelona.

If you drink, don't drive, but you can paint

Everything looks better with a glass of wine in your hand. It's the perfect pairing for good conversation, a snack, and even painting a picture. How about it?

One of this season's star team-building activities is precisely that: mixing wine with paintbrushes. And we can tell you right now that it's much better than it sounds or than you can imagine.

It's fun, interesting, and time flies by between sips and brushstrokes. Not only do you unleash your inner artist, but they come out swinging. A truly great plan.

Team dinner

Sharing a meal with your colleagues is always a good idea, especially after reading about the wine activity, which is sure to have whetted your appetite. But we offer you more than just dinner and good company.

In Barcelona, you can enjoy one of the most special dinners for companies in the whole country. That's right. No crowded restaurants, taverns or bars. No, here you can dine on the terrace of the Observatori Fabra, with the stars as your ceiling.

A welcome drink, good food, a great atmosphere, an unbeatable location and a little chat at the end to expand your knowledge over dessert. What the stars bring together, no marketing meeting should tear apart.

Cluedo in Barcelona

Our latest team-building activity is the most original thing you'll see in a long time, with the exception of dinner under the stars. Become an active part of one of the world's most famous board games. And no, we're not talking about entering Jumanji.

In Barcelona, you can take part in an immersive Cluedo game and try to figure out who the murderer is, where they committed the crime, and what weapon they used. A game of deduction, skill, and quick thinking, as well as lots of fun.

Afterwards, you can talk about how much fun you had and all your theories while enjoying a cocktail and some snacks. Sherlock Holmes deserves a break too, after all.
