In a world of “we-do-it-all” event companies, finding a team building provider that actually specialises in team building can feel like trying to find a needle in a haystack. You Google, you scroll, and suddenly you’re on a website that offers everything from weddings to firework displays to llama hire (yes, really).
But if you’re organising a team building event for your workplace — one that’s fun and actually works — you want a provider that eats, sleeps and breathes team dynamics. That’s where Zing Events comes in.
We’re not your average events company dabbling in a bit of everything. We’re a dedicated team building provider — and that focus makes all the difference.
Team Building Is All We Do (And We Do It Exceptionally Well)
Let’s get one thing straight. Zing Events isn’t a wedding planner, a balloon arch specialist, or a “party DJ and magician for hire.” We are, unapologetically, 100% a team building provider. That’s our lane — and we stay in it.
While other companies bolt on team building as an afterthought, we’ve spent over a decade honing the craft. We’re the people behind activities like The Deceivers (inspired by The Traitors), Escape the Box, and our charity hit Putt a Hole in Hunger. We don’t just provide entertainment — we create experiences that bring teams together and build company culture that lasts beyond the event.
Why a Specialist Team Building Provider Beats a Jack-of-All-Trades
Here’s the thing: when you work with a team that specialises in team building (and nothing else), you get:
-
Expertise that’s laser-focused: We understand how teams tick — from PAs and marketing execs to finance heads and CEOs.
-
Proven results: We’ve delivered events for FTSE 500 giants, creative startups, and everything in between.
-
Purpose-led experiences: Every activity is built with collaboration, trust, communication, or innovation in mind — not just a quick laugh and a warm prosecco.
Team building isn’t just a checkbox. When done well, it has the power to transform how people work together — and that takes expertise, not a party planner on the side.
A Dedicated Team Building Provider Understands the Stakes
Let’s be honest: organising a team event is no small task. You’ve got different personalities, time constraints, dietary requirements, budgets, and “we’re too busy” objections to contend with.
That’s why working with a provider like Zing Events — where team building is the core product, not a bolt-on service — gives you peace of mind.
We know what works, what flops, and how to adapt fast. We’ve seen it all — from CEOs attempting the Egg Drop Challenge to the IT team cracking codes in under 3 minutes. And because it’s our entire business, we’ve built the infrastructure, content, and facilitators to make it seamless.
You’re Not Just Booking a Day Out — You’re Booking a Team Transformation
We get it. The word “team building” sometimes conjures up visions of trust falls, name games, or that one guy in accounts groaning, “Do I have to?”
But that’s why it matters who delivers it.
Zing’s events are designed to be fun, engaging, and surprisingly effective. Whether you’re looking to boost morale, onboard new team members, or just get people talking again, we’ve got an experience tailored for you — and it’s backed by a team that only does this kind of work.
Our facilitators aren’t part-time DJs or hired actors with a script. They’re full-time team building pros who know how to read a room, bring out the best in your people, and spark genuine connection.
Our Clients Choose Us Because We’re Not Distracted
Let’s put it this way: you wouldn’t hire a general handyman to carry out heart surgery, would you? So why trust your company’s culture to an events agency that moonlights in all sorts?
Clients like Google, HSBC, Meta, and Coca-Cola choose Zing because they know they’re getting a specialist team building provider — not someone juggling marquees and ice sculptures on the side.
Being focused means we innovate faster, deliver better, and care more about your outcome. Because this isn’t just a service. It’s our entire business.
What Kind of Team Building Activities Do We Offer?
Glad you asked. As a dedicated team building provider, our activity menu isn’t filled with filler. It’s packed with award-winning, tried-and-tested team experiences, including:
Activity | Description | Purpose |
---|---|---|

One Trick Pony? Yes Please.
We’re proud to be a one-trick pony. Because that trick — creating meaningful, unforgettable team building experiences — is a game-changer for our clients.
When you work with Zing, you’re not just ticking off a box on the annual calendar. You’re partnering with a team that’s obsessed with making work better, more connected, and (dare we say it) more enjoyable.
Final Thoughts: Pick a Partner Who Lives and Breathes Team Building
If you’re looking for a team building provider who knows the difference between an ice breaker and an eye roll, who listens to what you need, and who turns office teams into legends — that’s us.
We’ll never try to sell you party favours or wedding chair covers. We’ll just give you team building that works.
Because when you’re the master of one, that one thing gets pretty damn good.
FAQs About Choosing a Team Building Provider
What is a team building provider?
A team building provider is a company that specialises solely in designing and delivering activities that help improve communication, collaboration, trust, and morale within workplace teams. Unlike general event planners, they focus on outcomes that enhance company culture and team performance.
Why should I use a specialist team building provider instead of a general event company?
Specialist providers (like Zing Events!) focus exclusively on team building. That means more tailored activities, better facilitators, and events that actually deliver results — not just a quick laugh. It’s the difference between a one-size-fits-all party and a purpose-led experience that brings teams closer.
What makes Zing Events different from other team building companies?
We don’t dabble in weddings or birthday parties — team building is all we do. That focus means you get events that are expertly designed, properly facilitated, and built to deliver meaningful outcomes for your team. Plus, we’re fun. And we’ve got 600+ five-star reviews to prove it.
Do team building events really improve employee performance?
Yes — when done well. According to a study by the University of Central Florida, teams that participate in team building show improved performance by over 20%. The key is choosing a provider who understands the psychology of teams and creates activities with purpose.
Can Zing Events run activities remotely or in our office?
Absolutely. We’ve designed a range of in-office and virtual team building options, so whether your team’s remote, hybrid, or back in the office, we’ve got an activity to suit. No need for coach travel or awkward outdoor attire (unless you’re into that).
How much does a team building provider typically charge?
Prices vary based on group size, location, and activity type. But with Zing Events, we always provide transparent pricing and flexible packages to suit your needs — no hidden llama fees. (Unless you ask for a llama. Then we’ll talk.)
How far in advance should I book a team building event?
Ideally 4–6 weeks ahead, especially for larger groups or peak times like summer and Christmas. But we’ve also pulled off fantastic events with just a few days’ notice — so if you’re in a pinch, give us a call.
