Team-Building Activities Perth Teams Will Love

If you’re planning a team-building event in Perth, the first question is always the same: what are we actually going to do? The good news: there’s no shortage of activities ready to bring people together, whether your team thrives on problem-solving, creativity or just sharing a good laugh. 

Here’s a line-up of ideas from Team Days exclusives to uniquely Perth experiences.

Competitive & Fast-Paced Fun

• Amazing Race – Forget boring boardrooms and send your team racing through Perth’s streets and laneways. From Elizabeth Quay to Kings Park, this adventure combines puzzles, checkpoints and plenty of memorable moments.

• Survivor Challenge – Channel your inner reality TV star in outdoor challenges that test brains, brawn and teamwork. Perth’s parks and beaches make the perfect backdrop.

• Minute to Win It – Quick-fire challenges that get everyone up and about. Perfect if your team prefers a dose of high-energy fun without heading outdoors.

• Amazing Chase – A twist on the classic, this version gets your crew working through challenges that blend strategy, speed and just enough chaos to keep everyone guessing.

Creative & Out-of-the-Box

• Graffiti Art Workshop – Northbridge and Fremantle are famous for their street art, so why not let your team create some of their own? Guided by pros, you’ll spray, stencil and splash colour into something you can be proud of.

• Masterpiece Studio – Looking for something more collaborative? Turn your office into an art studio and work together on one giant painting. No skill required, just plenty of spirit (and maybe a smock or two).

• Brick Masters – LEGO isn’t just for kids. In this challenge, teams design and build bold creations; great for sparking creativity and a touch of friendly rivalry.

• Film Fest – Perth has no shortage of dramatic sunsets, but the real drama here is in your short films. Teams plan, shoot and star in their own mini-movie, Oscars-style awards included.

Social & Relaxed

• Pub Explorer – Perth’s small bar scene is buzzing, and this challenge turns it into a playground. Think scavenger hunt meets bar-hop, with trivia, puzzles and a cheeky drink or two along the way.

• Bingo Party – A fresh take on a classic game, complete with quirky hosts, laughs and plenty of unexpected twists.

• Gatsby Casino Night – Transform your venue into a 1920s casino and watch your colleagues roll the dice (with play money, of course). Perfect for end-of-year celebrations.

• Trivia Game Show – Forget the weekly pub quiz. This is trivia with a twist, incorporating movement, challenges and a few delightful surprises.

Uniquely Perth Experiences

• Cottesloe Beach Clean & Coffee – Mix team bonding with purpose by spending a morning tackling litter together, followed by a well-earned coffee at one of Cottesloe’s cafés.

• Kings Park Picnic & Challenges – One of the largest inner-city parks in the world is also the ultimate backdrop for a team picnic. Add in a few organised games and you’ve got yourself a full day of fun.

• Fremantle Food Crawl – With its buzzing markets, craft breweries and historic streets, Fremantle is perfect for a self-guided tasting adventure with your team.

• Swan River Kayak Relay – For a water-based (and more extreme) challenge, team up and paddle along the Swan with Perth’s skyline as your backdrop. Ideal for groups who want something more active.

• Rottnest Island Adventure Day – Hop on a ferry, hire bikes and spend the day spotting quokkas while cycling from bay to bay.

• Swan Valley Wine & Cheese Tour – A relaxed way to bond while sampling local wines, cheeses and chocolates.

• Perth Hills Bushwalk & BBQ – Lace up for a guided walk through the trails, then relax with a BBQ picnic.

Indoor Team-Building Venues in Perth

Sometimes the best team-building happens away from the elements, especially in summer when Perth’s heat can hit hard. Luckily, the city has plenty of indoor venues that set the stage for everything from creative workshops to big end-of-year celebrations.

Crown Perth

If you’re planning something polished, Crown Perth is a go-to. With multiple event spaces ranging from intimate meeting rooms to grand ballrooms, it’s perfect for activities like a Gatsby Casino Night or That Bingo Party. You get all the glamour plus onsite catering and easy transport access, which makes it a solid choice for larger teams.

Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre (PCEC)

Right on the river at Elizabeth Quay, the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre offers flexible event spaces that can host everything from a Minute to Win It challenge to a full-scale Film Fest production. Its central location makes it convenient, and the tech facilities mean you can plug-and-play without a hitch.

Art Gallery of Western Australia (AGWA)

For teams leaning into their creative side, the Art Gallery of Western Australia is more than just a gallery. With dedicated workshop spaces and striking surrounds, it’s an inspiring backdrop for a Team Building Masterpiece or even a Graffiti Art Workshop – either way, you're creating art together in a venue built to celebrate it.

Pan Pacific Perth

If your crew wants something social and sophisticated, Pan Pacific ticks all the boxes. Their function rooms are ideal for cocktail-style evenings or something more interactive like a trivia night. Plus, their in-house catering makes it easy to pair your activity with canapés and a drink or two.

Outdoor Team-Building Venues in Perth

When you’ve got almost year-round sunshine, it makes sense to take team-building outside. Perth has a mix of beaches, riverside spots and green spaces that give your activities fresh air, stunning backdrops and plenty of room to move.

Kings Park and Botanic Garden

Perth’s most famous outdoor spot (and one of the largest inner-city parks in the world) is a dream for team-building. With sprawling lawns and skyline views, Kings Park and Botanic Garden is ideal for a range of activities, or even as a laid-back checkpoint during an Amazing Race event. Teams can spread out, tackle challenges and finish the day with a picnic under the gum trees.

Cottesloe Beach

If your team prefers salty air and ocean views, Cottesloe is the obvious choice. Known for its turquoise water and iconic Indiana Tea House backdrop, it’s a beautiful setting for a Survivor Challenge, an environmental cleanup or a friendly beach sports Olympics.

Langley Park

Right on the Swan River foreshore, Langley Park gives you open space without leaving the CBD. It’s perfect for high-energy activities like The Amazing Chase or Minute to Win It (outdoor edition). The bonus? It’s just a short walk to Elizabeth Quay if you want to transition into post-event drinks.

Elizabeth Quay

For teams that want to combine activity with atmosphere, Elizabeth Quay delivers. With waterfront promenades, sculptures and plenty of public space, it works brilliantly as a starting or finishing point for a checkpoint-style challenge or a cruise along the Swan River. Its mix of city buzz and river calm gives you the best of both worlds.

Fremantle Esplanade Reserve

Freo has its own energy – creative, quirky and a little bit rebellious. The Esplanade Reserve, with its tall Norfolk pines and open lawns, makes a fantastic hub for group challenges like a trivia game show or foodie crawl. Add in a visit to the nearby markets or breweries, and you’ve got a full team day out.

Bringing Your Perth Team-Building Event to Life

Whether it’s racing through the laneways of Fremantle, painting a masterpiece together in Northbridge or simply soaking up the sunshine at Cottesloe Beach, Perth has a way of making team-building feel less like “work” and more like a shared adventure.

With its mix of indoor and outdoor venues, creative spaces and one-of-a-kind local experiences, you’ll never be short of ways to bring your team closer.
