Author:

It’s August, and with more than half the year already behind us, now is the time to plan for one of the most important moments in the corporate calendar. Christmas is not only a time of celebration, but also one of the most strategic periods for team building activities.

This season presents a valuable opportunity for companies to strengthen team cohesion, boost morale and end the year on a high note. For event agencies, it’s also a peak business window where delivering impactful and original experiences is key.

Why Christmas Is a Top Moment for Team Building

The end of the year brings a need for reflection, celebration, and reconnection. Many companies use the holiday season to reward their teams with meaningful group experiences that combine fun, collaboration and recognition. A Christmas team building activity can improve employee engagement, reinforce values and set a positive tone for the year ahead.

What’s New in 2025: Trends to Watch

1. Custom Experiences Powered by AI

Video creted with Veo3

Artificial Intelligence is changing the way team building activities are built and experienced. Event planners can now use AI tools to create custom intros, video challenges and storylines using platforms like Sora and Veo 3.

How this connects with Mooveteam:

  • Add AI-generated welcome videos featuring characters like Santa or a company mascot
  • Create themed clues using generative images
  • Insert short films into challenge screens or reward moments

This type of content not only enhances storytelling but also increases engagement and the sense of personalization.

2. More Immersive Storytelling

Participants expect more than just games. They want a story. Mooveteam makes it easy to combine multimedia elements, GPS triggers, and interactive clues to build a narrative experience.

Popular themes include:

  • The Secret Santa Heist
  • Save the Elf Headquarters
  • Reindeer Rescue Mission

With fully branded interfaces, video content, and AR elements, these activities are immersive from start to finish.

3. Real-Time Control and Feedback

Mooveteam allows game managers to:

  • Monitor progress live
  • Push or remove challenges as needed
  • Send messages directly to participants
  • Rate submissions on the go
  • Share a recap slideshow with team photos and results immediately after the event

This ensures the game is not only fun but also smooth and professionally managed.
