How Your GPS City Rally in Magdeburg Works
- 1Welcome & Briefing
We meet at a central point in Magdeburg (e.g. Alter Markt, Cathedral Square or your venue). Our team guides welcome you, explain the tablets and the game rules. Teams are divided and equipped with equipment.
- 2Rally Start
Teams start at staggered times or simultaneously. The tablet guides you via GPS to the first station. Tasks await there: photo challenges at the Green Citadel, puzzles about Emperor Otto's history, creative tasks or team games. Collect points and move on to the next station!
- 3Discover & Experience
The route leads through Magdeburg's highlights: from the impressive cathedral to the colorful Green Citadel, along the Elbe promenade to the Magdeburg Rider. New challenges await at each station – and in between there's time for a view over the Elbe!
- 4Award Ceremony & Evaluation
All teams come together at the finish point. We evaluate the results, show the best photos and videos on the tablet and crown the winning team. Optional: transition to dinner together at Hasselbachplatz or on the Elbe waterfront!
New in our own game app: at the battle spots, two teams meet head-on and go directly against each other – either analogue on site or digitally in the app, whichever you prefer. the Alter Markt is a natural fit, because the routes converge there anyway. Where exactly the battle spots sit in Magdeburg is something we agree with you when planning the route.
