Xmas Adventure Groningen
The Advent season is the ideal chance to offer the team an unforgettable experience. The CityHunters Xmas Adventure in Groningen delivers just that — an extraordinary team building event that combines camaraderie, fun and the festive spirit of this charismatic city. Participants will wander Groningen’s elegant streets solving clever puzzles together and taking part in a Xmas Scavenger Hunt. Armed with smartphones and the CityHunters app, the route leads to some of the city’s most striking spots without needing to step inside a single building.
A festive adventure in the heart of Groningen
Groningen, celebrated for its lively cultural life and intriguing past, provides the perfect backdrop for a team building experience. The outing can kick off at the City hall, a central meeting point that works brilliantly as the launchpad for a seasonal mission. Alternatively, groups can start elsewhere in the city centre for a more tailored route. Along the way, teams will encounter landmarks such as the Martinitoren, the majestic Martinikerk and the modern silhouette of Forum Groningen, each offering atmospheric settings for clues and challenges.
The city as the stage for the Scavenger Hunt
This team building event continues past the striking façade of the Groninger Museum and loops by Der Aa-kerk and the distinctive St. Joseph Cathedral, showcasing a blend of historic and contemporary architecture. The Synagogue and the Nieuwe Kerk add their own chapters to the route, while a nod to the Groninger Studentencorps Vindicat atque Polit recalls the city’s spirited student life. Taken together, these sites create a varied playground for an engaging Scavenger Hunt.
Solving puzzles together and boosting team spirit
During the Xmas Scavenger Hunt, participants will face creative tasks designed to spark collaboration and quick thinking. The multimedia CityHunters app guides teams from one challenge to the next as Groningen’s decorated streets provide festive stagecraft. This interactive experience is much more than a company outing — it’s a chance to strengthen communication and camaraderie across the team. Whether chosen as part of a company summer party, a department celebration or a company christmas party, the Xmas Adventure leaves a lasting impression.
Groningen — the perfect city for a team building event
Beyond its landmarks, Groningen is known for a vibrant food scene. After a successful team building event, teams can round off the day with local specialties and cosy cafés. Sampling regional treats makes for a delicious finale to the company outing and offers a relaxed moment to reflect on the day’s highlights together.
