Small Group Events
MPT has a range of events that are perfectly suited to smaller businesses and teams. You may have heard about companies with a large employee base that focus on creating a vibrant atmosphere at work by bringing everyone together as a team. You may see the merits involved here but think that this approach is only relevant for organisations of a certain size, as they can take advantage of their economies of scale. Let us reassure you that this doesn’t have to be the case! After all, small businesses are classified as those with 100 staff or less – and there’s literally thousands of them across Australia.

WHY SMALL GROUP EVENTS?
Team building and staff recognition are every bit as relevant for smaller businesses as they are for larger ones. Whether a start-up, long term small business, or family owned and operated, the benefits of team building are universal.
As a small business ourselves, we are ideally placed to create fantastic group activities for small teams, and we have crafted our offers with this in mind. We’ve worked with businesses of a range of sizes and pride ourselves on making sure that we listen to client requirements and tailor our approach accordingly. In other words, our smaller group events are not simply a micro version of larger offerings, but specifically crafted for you.

GROUP TEAM BUILDING ACTIVITIES
Many people like to unwind with a favourite cocktail at the end of a strenuous day. This is the opportunity for your people to learn how they can mix and make those concoctions from scratch, or even come up with something that is completely individual. These group bonding activities take place in a private function room in the company of an expert mixologist who will help your team stir up their masterpiece in short order. When they are ready to sit back and sip their creation, complete the evening with a dinner or a visit to a real cocktail bar instead.
HIDDEN BAR TOUR AND COCKTAIL MASTERCLASS
You’d be surprised at the secret places to be found in downtown Melbourne and this group team building activity helps you to uncover them. Start off in the Swamp Room hidden behind a nondescript door where you can read all about absinthe and enjoy a few taste tests, should you wish. Other cocktails and nibbles are also available. The next destination is “up top” at an exotic rooftop bar, where award-winning bartenders create some amazing cocktail experiences for you. As you marvel at the surroundings and the stunning view, the team will learn how to make their own cocktails and, importantly, how to put on a show as they do so. It’s then time for a competition to see who learned the most and who is a natural mixologist.
INDULGE IN THE BELLARINE PENINSULA
This is a winery tour with a difference in the up-and-coming Bellarine Peninsula. This group team activity bonding starts with a ferry ride where the team will enjoy morning tea before they board a bus to their destination. They’ll then enjoy some wine tasting in a magnificent environment followed by lunch and transfer to a second winery. The midday meal is made up of three courses and accompanied by a lengthy sojourn, music and beverage package. This is a great opportunity for them all to get to know each other in a quiet, ambient and relaxing atmosphere before heading back on the ferry to Melbourne.
What is more inspiring and relaxing than a boat cruise? This group activity features three hours aboard a luxurious vessel, specifically chartered for you and crewed by professionals. You can choose from a selection of canapés and beverage packages as you cruise the Yarra River or meander through Hobson’s Bay. If you like, you can choose your own soundtrack to be programmed into the onboard system for some entertainment or allow your staff to stroll outside to watch the sunset.
ENQUIRE NOW
From time to time, your team may need to solve some challenging issues at work and this small group activity will help them to do so. However, this type of challenge is even more daunting as they need to unmask a killer! A tongue-in-cheek murder mystery unfolds while your group is enjoying dinner at the venue of your choice or a specially chosen “eerie” location. They will be given some collateral to help them, including money to bribe others, notes about the characters and individual props. This activity may allow your team members to learn a lot more about their colleagues than they’d ever suspected…
OTWAY RANGES ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE
Your small group jumps aboard a luxury coach and departs Melbourne for the Otway Ranges. Here, they will undertake the first activity with a zip line experience, careening through the treetops of this spectacular rainforest, on the lookout for any indigenous species. This is followed by a degustation lunch, which is spread over five courses and expertly created by a local chef. It’s part of a premium bonding experience that is meant to reward your staff for all their hard work.
Who doesn’t like a slice of pizza at the end of a hard day’s work? If you’ve always wondered how this food is made, this challenge is the opportunity to find out. Your group members will exhibit a variety of different skills as they make decisions, become creative and work together as a team. They will need to perform these tasks very carefully if they are to produce the perfect pizza. It will all start with the dough before moving on to ingredients and the cooking process itself. Everyone gets to enjoy this culinary treat at the conclusion, washed down with a glass of wine.
Take over a private bowling alley situated in Melbourne’s CBD. This is an authentic venue with all the trimmings and your staff will even get to wear some golden bowling shoes as well. There will be time for some canapés and cocktails before the group will be divided into several teams and bowl to their heart’s content. The objective is to build up points and qualify for a grand finale, to choose the ultimate champion.
