How to Choose an Event Planner

Handing part of an event to a planner makes most sense when the day needs structure: a program to run, groups to move, and people who don't know each other well to bring together. In Newcastle, the planners listed here specialise in exactly that kind of work, designing activities for workplaces, conferences and end-of-year gatherings.

Premier Team Building builds programs to a brief. Its Newcastle formats include a guided city bike tour, a scavenger hunt along the harbour foreshore and VR challenges at Toronto, and it scales from four people to 2,000-plus, from a 60-minute breakout to a retreat across several days. Afterwards you get a free report on how the team worked together, drawn from the facilitator's notes.

Pinnacle Team Events works out of Redhead in Lake Macquarie and is fully mobile: facilitators come to your office, a park or the venue you've already booked. It has more than 110 formats, from Amazing Race and Survivor to game shows, trivia and charity builds, from $50 per person.

Before you brief either one, have these ready:

Head count, and whether everyone takes part at once or in rotating teams
Where it happens: your office, a park or a function venue
How long you have, from half an hour to a full program
What the day is for – celebration, connection or skills
The rest of the plan, such as drinks or a Christmas lunch afterwards

Both companies travel across the city, Merewether and The Junction, Western Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. Pair the activity with somewhere to eat and drink afterwards from the venues list, or find more ideas on the team building page.

Premier Team Building: programs written around your brief, with a team report afterwards
