How Pub Olympics works

What are the rules of Pub Olympics?

Your guests form teams and compete in each event under an umpire’s adjudication. Participants from each team vie with rivals from the others — giving the occasion a fun competitive edge.

Who is Pub Olympics for?

Pub Olympics works well with small corporate groups and can be scaled up for larger groups too. It’s ideal as an away-day, an accompaniment to a barbecue or an evening’s entertainment.

How long does Pub Olympics last?

Typically, Pub Olympics takes two hours — from briefing to prize-giving — but we can fit it into a one-hour format too.

What games are included in Pub Olympics?

We can supply just about any pub game imaginable in this evening team building event. Some favourites include:

Darts: Darts is a classic pub game that requires precision and accuracy. Players take turns throwing darts at a target, trying to score points by hitting specific areas on the board. It’s a game that requires focus and a steady hand.

Table Tennis: Wow your friends with deft touch, slight of hand and powerful spin as you ping pong the night away. An intense match-up or a casual knock about – you can choose!

Beer Pong: Beer Pong is a more modern addition to the Pub Olympics. It is a team-based game where players throw ping-pong balls across a table with the aim of landing them in cups filled with beer. It combines skill and a little bit of luck, making it a hit at parties and gatherings.

Trivia: Trivia games are perfect for testing general knowledge and quick thinking. Participants answer questions on a wide range of subjects to win prizes.

Table Tennis: Wow your friends with deft touch, slight of hand and powerful spin as you ping pong the night away. An intense match-up or a casual knock about – you can choose!

Table Football: The classic table-top soccer game to play one on one or team up with your colleagues in goals, defence, midfield and attack!

How much does Pub Olympics cost?

Depending on the package you choose, the price can vary for our Pub Olympics events. Get in touch with us to find out more.

I wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you and your team for organizing such a wonderful event. Everything was handled so thoughtfully and professionally. Scott was a great help on ground and client really appreciated the entire Highland games setup. Please share my gratitude with all the team members involved in Highland games. Thanks to you & Jenny for accommodating last minute requests and making sure it was delivered on time. Whenever we have an event in UK, we will make sure to contact you guys. Next time please try and meet us. Thanks from entire team Thomas Cook.

Massive thank you to Rhys & Mike for creating a professional and overall enjoyable experience for our team. Throughout the entire process they worked hard to ensure our values and needs were met on the day. The delivery of the events was incredibly well received and I can safely say I would be glad to book with Maximillion again.

Our guests were delighted with the day of Highland Games, the team of maximilion was fantastic. I will recommend them 100%.

Horizons – TPG Scotland

Just a note to say thanks for all your help with the Yamaha event last week. It went very well, and the client was very happy. I know she was a bit worried just because of experiences at other venues around the world where things have not gone according to plan. So for us to arrive and see it all set and ready to roll, put her mind at rest.

Spectra

We want to express our heartfelt gratitude for the fantastic murder mystery and DJ services the Maximillion team provided at our recent Renewables UK Seminar at Cameron House Hotel. It was an evening filled with excitement and entertainment, and Maximillion played a pivotal role in making it a memorable experience for all of us.

TotalEnergies

Thanks so much for all your help! The client was very happy. The planning stages were smooth and Rhys and the onsite team were wonderful too. We would recommend! Thank you

Conference Contacts

We had an absolutely fantastic time at our Teambuilding afternoon hosted by Maximillion Events at our Ayrshire premises. This is now the 3rd time we have used their services and will definitely be looking to use them again next year. Such a lovely and professional group of people to deal with!! We had various games with a bespoke package set up for a group of staff members with varying degree of mobility. We did carpet curling (indoors), giant jenga, connect 4, darts, air hockey to name but a few all being done outside near to our foodhall and “refreshments” area. It was perfect, everyone had a blast and the Maximillion team were a joy to work with. Thorough, professional, safety conscious and lots of fun. They looked to enjoy themselves watching us and our very competitive natures shine through. Thank you again to all at Maximillion – you made our day that extra special.

Thank you to Mike, Ross and Sandy from Maximillion for the team building in the afternoon, murder mystery that evening, Belbin Team Roles next morning, a fantastic team building session in the afternoon and, finally, a great barbecue that evening provided by Norton House. Although some of us were a bit slow of the mark the second day, the same positive attitude and enthusiasm from day one prevailed and I think we all got something out of it. It was clear to me that everyone was communicating and working together better by the end of the afternoon.
