Crystal Challenge Team Building Event
Inspired by the iconic Crystal Maze TV show. Teams compete across physical, mental, skill, and mystery zones to collect crystals, then battle it out in the legendary Crystal Dome finale. Available for groups of 10 to 5,000.
Navigate the Zones, Collect the Crystals
Crystal Challenge is one of Event Collection's most popular corporate team building events. Inspired by the classic TV format, it delivers the same mix of excitement, competition, and teamwork that made the original a household favourite, adapted for corporate groups of any size.
Hosted by our charismatic presenters, teams navigate through a series of challenge zones: physical, mental, skill, and mystery. Each zone tests different abilities, ensuring every participant gets a chance to contribute. Success earns crystals, which determine how much time each team gets in the grand finale.
The Crystal Dome is always the highlight. Teams enter the dome to grab as many gold tokens as possible before time runs out, a chaotic, hilarious, and utterly memorable climax that participants talk about long after the event.
The format can be tailored to your objectives, from a pure fun day to a development-focused session building specific workplace skills. Delivered across the UK, from Scotland to the south of England.
