Mateusz was fantastic. he explained everything clearly and made the whole session engaging and easy to follow, even for those of us without any robotics background. The Lego kits were perfectly prepared, the instructions were very well organised, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Mateusz also helped us with setting up the robots and made sure everyone was involved and enjoying the process. The highlight was definitely the robot fight at the end, so much fun and lots of laughs! I highly recommend this workshop for any group activity, team-building event, or even just something different and exciting to try with friends. We had a brilliant time! + more

There were snacks and drinks for us as an added bonus. We booked as group from work for team building and IWD and we had the best time. It was a really inclusive activity that made us think and helped us learn a new skill, but was also really enjoyable and engaging. Thank you Maya. We will be back for future events. + more

Nono and Dylan from The Flower Factory were very friendly and kind and they facilitated a wonderful wreath workshop in our office for our coworkers to get into the festive mood. Everyone loved how straightforwardNono and Dylan from The Flower Factory were very friendly and kind and they facilitated a wonderful wreath workshop in our office for our coworkers to get into the festive mood. Everyone loved how straightforward it was and how quickly they could dig in decorating the wreaths. It helped that the wreaths were already pre-made so it saved time (this was organised during a work day around lunchtime) and that they were already beautifully shaped. Some coworkers expressed they liked that the wreaths were already pre-done, as it would have taken double the time if we had to do it ourselves. Nono and Dylan helped with demonstration, ribbon cutting and tying when requested and provided everyone with a big paper bag to bring their wreaths home. They also arrived on time to set up before the workshop began. We would happily have them come back next year. Only tiny bit of feedback: some people expressed they would have liked to see more different colours of decorations (such as the ribbons or baulbs etc), that said the quality of the decorations were all very good. + more

Team Activities London
Best team building activities in London for the whole team
London team building matters for real business reasons: according to Queens University of Charlotte, 75% of staff say teamwork and collaboration are crucial to corporate success. The best team building activities take your team out of the office and into a creative setting. Swap the scavenger hunt or escape room for a group pottery class in Nine Elms or a cocktail workshop in Hackney, and you'll see a different side to your colleagues without the forced icebreakers. From Streatham to the Strand, London's creators and crafters bring painting, pottery, terrarium making or even cooking and cocktail making to your team.
Just finished a big project or hit your goals for the quarter? Reward hard graft with an indulgent chocolate truffle workshop, a meditative paint pouring class, or a professional corporate cooking class for the foodies on the team.
5 best group activities for team building in London
Need concrete examples? These five London team building activities cover every type of group.
-
Cocktail masterclasses deliver an instant energy boost for the whole team. Try the Premium Cocktail Making Masterclass in Hackney (5.0 stars, from £45) – shaking, mixing and laughing together makes a brilliant post-work celebration.
-
Collaborative pasta making is a foodie team's dream session. The Fresh Pasta Class with Bottomless Prosecco on the Isle of Dogs (5.0 stars, from £70) has everyone rolling up their sleeves before sitting down to the feast they made together.
-
Kintsugi makes for a calmer, more focused team activity. The Kintsugi Class - Japanese Repair in Clapham (4.9 stars, from £50) teaches the ancient art of mending broken pottery with gold.
-
Candle making suits a mindful, low-key afternoon. At the Candle Making Class in Shoreditch (4.9 stars, from £48), everyone picks their own scent and pours a candle to take back to their desk.
-
Terrarium building gives the office a green upgrade. The Real-Plant Terrarium Making Workshop in Battersea (5.0 stars, from £65) has teams build a living centrepiece while getting hands-on with real plants.
Budget-friendly team building activities in London from £20
Team building doesn't need a big budget to make an impact. From £20 for the Hand Building Pottery Class in Shoreditch & Chelsea, London has plenty of wallet-friendly options that still deliver a proper shared experience.
-
A hands-on craft everyone can join, regardless of skill. Sessions like Sip and Paint Your Mug in Battersea (from £25) and Freestyle Clay Workshop in Woolwich (from £28) need zero experience.
-
All materials and tools provided. Budget sessions include everything needed, so there's nothing extra for the organiser to source or expense.
-
A take-home piece for every attendee. Even at the lower price points, the team leaves with something made, not just a shared memory.
-
Flexible group sizes. Cocktails and Pottery Paint in Wimbledon (from £25) takes groups of 12 to 30, so budget-friendly doesn't mean small-scale.
Add it up against a standard team lunch or pub trip, and a £20-£30 creative session is often the better-value choice – with a lot more to show for it afterwards.
How to plan creative team building activities in London
Creative team building works because it builds real skills – communication, cooperation, collaboration and leadership – while your team makes something together, whether that's a hand-built ceramic vase, a rug tufted in Camden Town, or a round of sushi. It works for every kind of team, from startup founders to sales teams and retail staff. Here's how to plan it:
- Pick a craft that matches your team's energy. High-energy groups suit a cocktail masterclass or paint pouring session; quieter teams often prefer pottery or kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics with gold.
- Check the guest range before booking. Sessions range from intimate 6-person private bookings to 500-guest venues – not to mention sessions that come to your office space – so match the class to your headcount.
- Choose in-person or remote. Office-based teams can book a class at a London studio or have a teacher come to you; distributed teams can join a live-streamed session with kits posted in advance.
- Let the teacher handle the logistics. All materials and tool introductions are provided on arrival, so nobody needs experience – your team just needs to show up.
How to book remote team building activities for your workplace
Remote and hybrid teams don't have to miss out. Our virtual team building activities deliver a DIY craft kit to each attendee ahead of a live-streamed session – think candle making, cake decorating or brush lettering – so distributed teams can create side by side over video call. It's a simple way to combat burnout and keep everyone included, wherever they're based.
The business case holds up too: PWC found that every £1 invested in workplace mental wellbeing returns £4.70 in improved productivity. Booking a remote team building session is as easy as picking a date, choosing a craft, and letting the kits do the rest – no need to coordinate a venue or worry about who's dialling in from home.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do team building activities cost in London?
Most sessions run £34-£85 per person, with mobile 'comes to you' options like Corporate Candle Making starting from £45.
Can we do team building remotely?
Yes – the Virtual Team Building Activities range delivers a craft kit to each attendee before a live-streamed session, like the Virtual Pottery Workshop.
Are team building activities good for introverts?
Yes – parallel-task formats like pottery or candle making let people focus on their own work rather than performative group icebreakers.
Can I book a private team building session?
Yes – mobile teachers run sessions at your office, like the Corporate Candle Making Experience, which takes 6-60 guests.
Do you cater for large corporate groups?
Yes – the Terrarium Making Workshop for Groups and Team Building takes up to 2,000 guests, and the Perfume Making Class in Whitechapel takes up to 500.
What are good team building ideas besides an escape room?
Rug tufting in Camden Town or kintsugi (the Japanese art of pottery repair) in Clapham give the same group-bonding effect without the gimmick.
Is there a group size limit for team building activities?
It varies by class – some private sessions start from 6 guests, like Corporate Candle Making, while others scale to 500+, like the Perfume Making Class in Whitechapel.
Which companies use ClassBento for team building?
Google, American Express and BCG are among the companies that have booked team building sessions through ClassBento.
