Archery Tag + BBQ event example

Airbnb Team Building Case Study in Singapore

This Airbnb team day paired a tournament-style Archery Tag session with a catered Sunday Roast BBQ finish, which makes it a strong example for organisers who want one high-energy activity followed by a more social close.

Event shape

Active first, social second

The day had a clean structure: play first, settle in later, and let the meal carry the second half of the bonding.

Why people remember it

One standout game plus one strong finish

Instead of overloading the schedule, the event gave the team one clear competitive moment and one clear social moment.

Best planning lesson

The finish matters as much as the game

A catered close can make the whole event feel more complete, especially when the opening activity is high energy.

What happened

A good example of an active session with a premium social finish

Airbnb hosted a team-building event with Cohesion in October, starting with an Archery Tag session before moving into a catered Sunday Roast BBQ.

The event had a clear shape: brief the team, run a tournament-style battle, announce a winning side, then let the group shift into food and conversation after the competitive portion.

That kind of structure still works well for organisers who want the day to feel lively without forcing the full session to stay intense from start to finish.

We had an awesome time bonding over Archery Tag and BBQ dinner. Well organised.

What the event included

  • October team-building event.
  • Archery Tag session with a basic bow-and-arrow handling brief before play.
  • Tournament-style battle with a winning team announced.
  • Sunday Roast BBQ finish after the activity session.
  • Premium meats were highlighted as part of the catering experience.

Why this format worked

Why this event shape still sells well

It gives the team two different ways to bond

The game creates fast shared energy, while the meal gives people more time to talk, decompress, and stay in the experience longer.

The activity has a clear rhythm

Archery Tag works well here because the team can learn the basics quickly, compete in a structured way, and then move on while the energy is still high.

The catering makes the day feel more complete

A stronger finish helps the event feel less like a standalone game session that ends the moment the equipment comes off.

Planning takeaways

What other organisers can take from this

1

Pair one active centrepiece with one social centrepiece

You do not always need multiple activities if the overall event still feels balanced.

2

Use the meal to extend the bonding window

If relationship-building matters, do not let the whole experience end the moment the game ends.

3

Choose a format that is easy to brief and easy to get into

That keeps the opening simple and leaves more room for the team to enjoy the second half of the event.
