How do virtual and online experiences work?
Our simple booking process means that finding & booking a virtual experience couldn’t be easier. Our expert team has arranged thousands of virtual and hybrid events, and are also on hand to assist and advise you through every step of organizing and running your event.

What is a virtual experience and how do I arrange one?

Virtual experiences are designed for fully remote or distributed groups, to interact and build relationships with one another. 

Ideal for fully remote and hybrid teams, these experiences take place via a video conferencing platform such as Zoom, MS Teams, Webex or Google Meets. 

All of our virtual experiences are private so if you book an experience with us, it will only be your group who’s attending the event. 

The type of virtual virtual experiences can broadly be split into two types: 

How do I arrange a virtual experience without delivery?

Virtual experiences without delivery don’t require any packs or kits to be delivered to attendees ahead of a virtual event.

This means no address collection is required, making them the quickest and simplest virtual experiences to arrange.
