    Getting Snapsheet out into the city

    Jessica wanted a scavenger hunt that would get Snapsheet colleagues out exploring Chicago. The brief called for the same start and finish location, making the game easier to fit into the team's day. The team played a self-hosted Classic Adventure in the Millennium Park game zone, with team photos captured around the city.

    Planning team building in Chicago

    The practical details to settle before your team arrives.

    How long does a team building event in Chicago last?

    The scavenger hunt itself typically lasts 90 minutes. Plan on up to 3 hours for the full experience, including the kickoff and awards show afterward. Game Shows run for 90 minutes. Tell us about your meeting schedule or dinner plans so we can help the fun fit your day.

    What group sizes can you accommodate in Chicago?

    The practical minimum is usually 8 people or at least two teams, depending on the game. We also plan events for hundreds of guests and larger conferences. Share your expected headcount so we can confirm the right format, venue capacity, team sizes, and staffing.

    How much walking is involved, and can the event be adapted?

    Pick one game zone, such as Millennium Park or the Magnificent Mile, and confirm the walk from your meeting venue. A compact route helps when there is a fixed return time. Tell us about walking limits, stairs, or a need for seated alternatives.

    Can you help us find and secure a venue?

    Yes. If you would like help with the location, our venue coordinator can help you find and secure a venue that suits your group and event. Venue coordination is optional, so you can also use your own office, hotel, or meeting space. We will confirm the venue arrangements and any associated costs with you.

    What happens if the weather changes?

    If rain is in the forecast, we can switch your scavenger hunt to a 90-minute indoor Game Show with enough advance notice to secure a suitable venue and arrange the change. Our venue coordinator can help find and secure that space if you choose. Talk with your producer early to confirm availability, timing, and any changes to your package.

    What does The Go Game handle, and what does our team arrange?

    We help you choose the game and location, prepare the game content, and coordinate the event plan. With an on-site host, we lead the kickoff and awards show; self-hosted packages give your organizer a different role. You share your headcount, schedule, access needs, and company content. If you choose, our venue coordinator can also help you find and secure a venue. Your proposal confirms the hosting, venue arrangements, food and drinks, AV, prizes, and custom additions included in your event.
