City Rally in Dortmund – Team Building, Sightseeing and Team Challenge in One
Our city rally in Dortmund combines exciting puzzles, modern technology and exploring the city together into a varied team event. In small teams, participants compete against each other and collect as many points as possible within the given time. A special highlight on your route: Signal Iduna Park.
Equipped with a tablet PC and our specially developed event app, the teams set off on a varied route through Dortmund. Along the way they discover not only well-known sights and historic squares, but also hidden corners that many visitors would otherwise miss.
At every station new challenges await: sometimes knowledge and logical thinking are required, sometimes creativity, skill or team spirit. The programme is rounded off with entertaining photo and video challenges that provide plenty of fun and unforgettable memories.
Because many tasks are tailored specifically to Dortmund, participants get to know the city in a playful way while experiencing an exciting competition with the other teams. Through clever route planning and good cooperation, additional points can be earned – here it’s not only the right answers that count, but also strategy and teamwork.
