We have a brand new video describing our team building/conference entertainment activity called Clap Happy. In a nutshell, we quickly create a multi-rhythm clapping orchestra that, ultimately, has a mini performance as a finale. Clap Happy still remains one of our most asked for events.

Abba in Albufeira: team singing in Portugal
We often receive enquiries from clients who are not really sure what team activity they want, and that’s absolutely fine.
