EVENT OVERVIEW

Gather the clan for your very own Highland Games!

Kilts will swirl, pipes will skirl and haggis will be hurled, all against a backdrop of breathtaking Scottish scenery! Choose from a suite of hearty activities — from axe throwing to gun dog displays. And when the last caber’s tossed, continue long into the night with a traditional Scottish dinner and ceilidh!

How Highland Games Works

What are the rules of Highland Games?

Your Highland Games can be a team competition that culminates in a tug of war. Or put on a Highland Fair for your guests to enjoy a wider range of activities to include demonstrations, workshops and have a go activities.

Who is Highland Games for?

Highland Games is for anyone who would enjoy Scottish-themed team-building in the great outdoors. It’s a fantastic way to celebrate Burns Night or St Andrew’s Day, and also works well throughout the year.

How long does Highland Games last?

Highland Games is a very flexible event and can be tailored to run for anywhere between 2 hours and a full day, depending on your requirements.

Very well organised in the lead up and on the day of the event. Clear communication throughout! The team delivered a fantastic Highland Games event on the day that everyone enjoyed. Thanks to Mike, Rhys and the team!

TotalEnergies

Jenny takes the time to understand our vision and goals for each event and consistently exceeded our expectations through close partnership and honest, transparent communications. Building a partnership that has become an extension of our core in-house team has resulted in innovative ideas, handling challenges with ease, and seamless event delivery from the whole team.

Vicki Sharpe, Head of Marketing

The Lego Serious play event was a great hit with all of our Scotframe participants. Such a great way to get everyone involved and really work as a team.

Scotframe

Overall Maximillion were fantastic to work with, they were really flexible and happy to work within our event timings and budget. I had several planning calls with them in advance so felt safe in their hands.

R3

Everything from start to finish was amazing and Jenny kept in constant contact – couldn’t fault Jenny or the company whatsoever. Organisation/Communication was 100% perfect.

White & Mackay

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

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.

John Abbot, MD

Mike and his team did a fantastic job on the run up to and on event day. With the quick turnaround of plans, there was clear communication before, during and after the event. Thank you to Mike and the Maximillion team!

People’s Postcode Lottery

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

Your team on the night for installation were on time, super efficient and gave clear guidance on usage of the games and when I called to say we’d finished early – returned quickly and dismantled with the same efficiency.
