Team Building Events for Large Groups – Case Study:
Before delivering a 1,500-person, two-day series of four programs for a national pizza franchise, we took time to learn about the company’s culture and the challenges that they face every day. We then visited their national headquarters, attended franchisee training meetings, and even made pizzas in their test kitchens! The experience really helped us to design and deliver rewarding programs for their team, which resulted in an effective team building event that the participants loved.We have the expertise, technology, and resources to deliver engaging team building activities for large groups, ensuring successful events for teams ranging from 1,000 to over 6,000 participants. If you’re seeking to engage and strengthen your team, choose Best Corporate Events—the leader in large group team building.

FAQs about Team Building for Large Groups
Can large group team building still feel personal and engaging?
Large group team building can absolutely feel personal, with the right planning. Key strategies to ensure a personal feeling for large groups include smaller group breakouts, shared goals, and integrated technology. Popular programs that incorporate a small group feel for a large group include scavenger hunts, team competitions, and charitable CSR. BEST tailors the experience to fit the unique needs and goals of every group to ensure maximum engagement and participation for even the largest groups.
How much time should we allocate for a large group team building event?
The amount of time required for a large group team building event depends on the event’s goals, the type of activity, and the group size. The most common time frame for our traditional team building programs is 2-3 hours, but we have designed half-day and full-day experiences to integrate with the flow of conference schedules and attendee logistics.
How do you divide large teams into smaller groups for team building activities?
Dividing large groups into smaller subgroups is essential to making the team building experience more personal and impactful. Sub teams can be formed through randomized, fun icebreakers, physical or prop-based exercises, or can be pre-determined for strategic purposes. The best method will depend on the event’s goals, time constraints, and team size.
