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. 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.

The general comment today in the office is how amazing the event was and how much fun people had.

I just wanted to say thank you so much to you and your team for organising a truly memorable Christmas party for the JAA clan. We had a fabulous time and the activities and events you suggested really hit the spot in terms of being accessible, entertaining and fun. I would highly recommend you all for any corporate event in Scotland!

JAA

Ross and the team at Maximillion were an absolute pleasure to work with and played a HUGE part in the success of the Phoenix Leadership UnConference 2023! From the very beginning Maximillion embraced the relaxed feel of this year’s conference and helped bring our vision to life! From a bespoke centre stage to Lego figurines, beanbag seating to branded sticky notes – everything was planned and executed to the highest of standards and myself and the wider team could not be happier! Maximillion have delivered many events for Phoenix Group, they are an extended part of the team and we honestly couldn’t deliver the events like we do without them!

Phoenix Group

Sarah and her team have proved invaluable to the organisation of our flagship event held in London. We partner with leading physicians from across the world to bring the latest thinking in cardiology to the participants, who come from many countries. This requires a team that operates to a high standard and can offer an experience that all involved remember. A foundation of this is the attention to detail, and a drive to get it right – mostly hidden from all when working well, but very obvious if not done. I have no hesitation to recommend Sarah and her team if you have an event you wish to deliver a the highest standards. The Optima team sends all our thanks to them.

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

We held events running over two days. The Maximillion Gameshow which was fun and engaged all who attended the first evening event. During our away day we had Team Tops Trumps in the morning, again this was inclusive for all who were in attendance. Lastly during the afternoon of our away day we took part in Level-up which I have to say was great fun for all involved.

Resolis

Sarah and her team at Maximillion are professional in every way. The quality of events we have run over the last 3 years has been of the highest quality across a mixture of online and larger face-to-face events. You not only get a ‘can do’ attitude but also adaptability as circumstances change and ideas that improve what you are offering your delegates.

BSGAR

Maximillion was great! They were responsive and accommodating and we would definitely use them again.

Maritz.com

We thought the event was organised and ran extremely well. All of our staff had a fantastic time, great fun! Would recommend Maximillion.

Meraki Talent

Fantastic day and really enabled people to get to know each other and have a laugh at the same time. Exactly the aim!
