Corporate Team Building Solutions in Vancouver

Vancouver makes it easy to get a team together. The downtown core is a walkable peninsula where Gastown, Yaletown, and Coal Harbour sit a 10-to-25-minute walk apart, and venues here span a small boardroom on one end and a convention-centre ballroom built for thousands on the other. Outback has run team building for teams of every kind across Metro Vancouver, and we’ll help you manage the planning. With Outback, you’ll get:

  • Self-hosted, virtual, or fully facilitated events, indoors or out
  • Scalable team building activities designed to meet your goals
  • Local know-how with a national operation behind it

THE PAYOFF

Why Vancouver is Great for Team Building

The practical reasons Vancouver works when you need to get a team together.

Request a Quote
  1. Easy to Get Everyone There

    Downtown sits on a walkable peninsula, and Gastown, Yaletown, and Coal Harbour are all within a 10-to-25-minute walk of each other, so pulling a team together is simple.

  2. Indoor and Outdoor, Any Season

    Stanley Park’s seawall and VanDusen Botanical Garden for outdoor formats, and downtown venues like the Vancouver Convention Centre for everything else. Any time of year works.

  3. Venues for Any Group Size

    A boardroom of twenty or the Vancouver Convention Centre’s waterfront ballroom, which seats up to 6,000 theatre-style, and everything in between.

  4. A Downtown Built to Explore

    The compact peninsula core around Gastown and Yaletown is made for a scavenger hunt or city challenge on foot.

  5. Somewhere to Celebrate After

    Yaletown’s patios are steps from most downtown venues once the event wraps.

Customer Success Stories & Team Building Case Studies

Real results from real teams. Here is how Outback has helped companies build stronger cultures.

Finance 50+ people Virtual

BMO Bank of Montreal

BMO brought more than 50 employees together for a virtual event to reconnect a team that had grown distant. People were hesitant at first, but the format broke the ice fast and pulled everyone in. By the end, coworkers who rarely spoke were laughing and working together, and leadership had nothing but good things to say.

Technology Distributed team Virtual

Cisco

Cisco wanted to build real connection across a large team spread over several time zones. We ran a fully hosted virtual escape room that gave everyone a shared problem to solve. The energy was there right away, with people working the puzzle and celebrating together instead of feeling like a screen full of strangers.

Retail Company-wide In-Person

Loblaws

Loblaws wanted team building that would also give back. Through an Outback Cares charity event, employees worked side by side to assemble donations and raised $18,000 for a local cause. Morale went up as teams worked toward something that mattered, and the company made a real impact in the community.

Impressive and Inspiring!

Our team thoroughly enjoyed participating in both the Team Pursuit 2.0 and the Clue Murder Mystery activities. It was particularly gratifying to witness members from different teams—many meeting for the first time—come together and truly collaborate to tackle the challenges presented. The level of teamwork and communication required was impressive and inspiring.

Our team would highly recommend Outback Team Building & Training to any group seeking to enhance their collaborative experience.
