Zing Events did an absolutely incredible job of delivering an ‘Escape Box’ team-building exercise to my group of 200(!) at one of our Spotify internal conferences. The attendees loved it. I would thoroughly recommend them for your team-building activities.
Whilst there are many companies with virtual gaming offerings – I could not find one with better Reviews – trusted by world class businesses too. ZING did not disappoint and exceeded expectations. OUTSTANDING.
Great ‘Escape the Box’ activity run by Zing to close our 3 day meeting in Dubai which consisted of 150 participants. Made for a very high energy and exciting finish.
We will definitely leverage them again in the future!
When it comes to team building activities, many businesses wonder whether they can claim the costs as a tax-deductible expense. While the specifics can vary depending on your location and circumstances, there are general guidelines that businesses in the UK can follow when determining whether team building activities are tax-deductible.
In most cases, team building activities can be considered a legitimate business expense. This is because they help improve employee performance, collaboration, and morale, all of which can have a direct impact on business success. HMRC typically allows businesses to deduct expenses that are “wholly and exclusively” for business purposes, and team building falls under this category as long as it is directly related to your company’s objectives.
Examples of tax-deductible team building activities include:
For your team building activities to be tax-deductible, they must meet certain criteria:
Yes, virtual team building activities can be tax-deductible if they serve a business purpose, just like in-person events. These activities help remote teams strengthen collaboration, improve communication, and boost productivity—benefits that directly support your business. Popular virtual options, such as online escape rooms or team challenges, meet the criteria if they focus on improving team dynamics and are not simply for socialising.
The key is ensuring the activity is work-related, aiming to improve team performance or employee development. So, virtual team building is both a valuable and tax-deductible investment for remote teams.
Here are some quick fire answers.
It’s important to note that not all team building events are automatically tax-deductible. If the event is primarily for socialising, rather than for work purposes, it may not qualify. However, if the event has a clear business purpose, such as a team building retreat that combines work-focused activities with leisure, it may still be considered deductible.
There’s often confusion between team building activities and entertainment. While expenses for entertainment (such as hosting a party or offering gifts) are generally not tax-deductible, activities that provide business benefits—such as team building workshops, problem-solving activities, or strategy sessions—are more likely to qualify.
Since tax laws can be complex and subject to change, it’s always a good idea to consult a tax advisor or accountant who can guide you based on your specific business needs. They can help you ensure that you’re claiming deductions appropriately and adhering to any relevant tax regulations.
