Ingenious tasks, questionable tactics

Teams are set a series of deliberately odd tasks with simple rules and lots of creative freedom. The brief might be to move something, build something, or communicate something with no obvious way of doing it.

Points are awarded for flair as much as success, which is exactly the point. The tension between following the rules and finding a loophole is where the best moments happen.

Taskmaster runs in one venue, indoors or out, from 90 minutes to three hours, and suits groups of 4 to 100+. It is the format repeat clients ask us for most often.

Great for

  • Offsites and away days
  • Teams of 4 to 100+
  • Creative problem solvers

What to expect

  • Creative problem solving
  • Lots of laugh-out-loud moments
  • Run in one venue

How it runs on the day

Taskmaster starts with a conversation. After your enquiry we hold a discovery session to get to know your team and look at the space we have to work with, then send everyone the details before the event.

On the day our hosts are set up well before your start time. After a short briefing and team allocations, every team receives their first Taskmaster envelope at the same moment. Each task has a time limit, teams present their attempt to the Taskmaster, points are awarded for flair as much as success, and we finish with medals and the wooden spoon.

Available Australia wide, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, the Gold Coast and regional locations.

Questions about the Taskmaster

The things teams ask us before booking. Anything else, call 1300 044 197 or send an enquiry.

Plan on 1.5 – 3 hours. We build the running order around your program, so the Taskmaster can slot into a conference session, hold its own half day or stretch into a longer format.

Our standard range is 4 – 100+ participants, and we can stretch beyond that with extra hosts and waves. Everyone is placed in a team, so nobody is left watching.

Some challenges are physical and some are problem solving, so the group shares the load. We can weight the mix towards whichever suits your team.

It works in a single venue or outside, so you can choose based on the weather, the venue or how much movement you want on the day.

Send an enquiry with your date, headcount and location. We reply with a clear quote and a plan for the day, usually within one business day. Accepting the quote and paying a 30% deposit locks in your date.
