I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! Is back on our tellies with a new season, featuring some ex-winners as well as some celebs who didn’t make it that far. From stomach-churning eating trials, high-pressure Bushtucker challenges, creepy crawlies, tight spaces, and that constant battle to win stars and keep camp fed (hello, rice and beans), it’s the perfect evening entertainment.

But what if your team could take on the challenge themselves?

Here are three team building events that capture the same wild spirit, teamwork, and “face your fears” adrenaline as the jungle. No flights to Australia required.

1. Let’s Get Ready To Jungle

Get as close as possible to the trials of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! with our Let’s Get Ready To Jungle team building event, brought straight to your location anywhere in the UK. Whether indoors or outdoors, your space is transformed into a jungle camp, ready for your very own Bushtucker Trials.

You’ll be split into teams and welcomed by your Jungle Host, who will guide you through the challenges, keep the energy high and make sure no one gets too comfortable. Surrounded by jungle props, eerie lighting, creeping cobwebs and the sounds of the jungle, you’ll feel fully immersed as you prepare to earn those all-important gold stars.

Teams go head-to-head in a series of nerve-racking trials and brain-busting challenges. Moving through each zone, you’ll compete to collect as many gold stars as possible for your camp.

Some trials will call for brave volunteers to step forward and face their fears, while others will test your whole team’s communication, coordination and quick thinking. Every star counts and only one team will come out on top.

The Trials

  • Gross Eat Trial: Just like a classic Bushtucker Trial, this is not for the faint-hearted. Lift the cloche and face a selection of edible insects and jungle “delicacies”, all for the chance to earn stars for your camp.
  • Hidden Buckets: Think you can handle what’s lurking beneath the surface? Blindfolded players must reach into buckets filled with slime, creepy crawlies and mystery textures to retrieve hidden stars
  • while the opposing team waits for their turn to steal the advantage.
  • Kiosk Keith: A nod to the famous camp kiosk. Answer correctly to earn rewards for your team, but get it wrong and you might leave empty-handed…
  • Lock Box Challenge: Work against the clock to crack the codes, solve the riddles and unlock the cages to release the stars. A true test of teamwork under pressure.
  • Blindfold Tent: Just like setting up camp in the jungle, communication is everything. Guide your blindfolded teammates to build the tent and get inside first to win the stars.
  • Live Animals Trial (optional): For those feeling brave enough, come face-to-face with live animals. Hold your nerve to earn stars. The longer you last, the more you’ll win.

As you battle through the trials, you’ll collect gold stars to add to your team’s pouch. Once all challenges are complete, the stars are counted and the winning team is crowned King or Queen of the Jungle, with 2nd and 3rd place also taking their spot on the podium.

2. Survival Island

Step away from everyday comforts and into your own version of camp with our Survival Island team building event, brought straight to your location anywhere in the UK. This experience throws your team into a real survival-style scenario, where quick thinking, teamwork and resilience all come into play.

Led by expert instructors, you’ll get a hands-on introduction to surviving in the wild, picking up practical skills while working together and adapting to your surroundings. Starting from a central basecamp, teams head out across different zones to take on a range of challenges, each designed to test a different survival skill.

The Trials

  • Knot Tying: Get hands-on with a few essential survival knots, learning how they work before putting your skills to the test under time pressure. You’ll finish with a team challenge using one long rope, where communication and coordination really matter.
  • Fire Lighting: Using materials like flint and steel, wire wool, cotton wool and even a 9V battery, you’ll work as a team to spark a flame and build it into a fire that actually lasts.
  • Water Purification: With a cut plastic bottle, cloth and natural materials like charcoal, sand and gravel, you’ll create your own filtration system and see who can turn the dirtiest water into the cleanest result.
  • Shelter Build: Using tarps, paracord, bamboo poles and tent pegs, your team will design and build a shelter to protect against the elements, then put it to the test to see if it holds up.
  • Stretcher Rescue: Using poles, rope, a survival bag and basic first aid supplies, you’ll build a stretcher and work together to carry a casualty through a marked course safely and efficiently.
  • Axe Throwing: After a quick demo, you’ll learn how to handle and throw an axe properly before stepping up to score as many points as you can.
  • Navigation: With a compass and a set of coordinates, you’ll head out to find checkpoints, keeping track of your direction and distance along the way.
  • Bug Eating Finale: A final test of nerve, lift the cloche and see what’s waiting for you… it could be a treat, or something a bit more challenging.

As the experience unfolds, points are collected across each activity, with instructors judging performance throughout. At the end, scores are totalled and the top team is crowned, having shown the strongest mix of teamwork, adaptability and survival instinct.

3. Totally Wipeout

Step into your own Celebrity Cyclone-inspired showdown with our Totally Wipeout team building event, a high-energy, outdoor experience packed with big inflatables, big laughs and plenty of wipeouts. Inspired by the iconic finale of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, this is your chance to skip the creepy crawlies and go straight for the action.

You’ll be split into teams and rotate through a series of larger-than-life inflatable challenges, going head-to-head to rack up as many points as possible. As you move through each activity, it’s all about speed, balance and not taking yourself too seriously. Some challenges are all-out races, others are head-to-head battles, but they all have one thing in common: staying on your feet is half the battle.

The Challenges

  • Big Red Balls: Take on the ultimate Wipeout classic. One by one, players must leap across a row of giant inflatable red balls without falling. Easier said than done! The further you make it, the more points you’ll earn for your team.
  • Bungee Run: Strap in and sprint as far as you can down your lane while fighting against the pull of the bungee. Place your Velcro markers as far along the track as possible before being launched back. The furthest distance wins.
  • Washing Machines: Dive into the foam-filled chaos and hunt for matching pairs of socks. One player enters at a time, grabbing a single sock per go and racing to hang it up before the next teammate jumps in.
  • Hungry Hippos: A human-sized version of the classic game. Attached to bungee cords, players charge forward to grab as many balls as they can from the centre before being pulled back. The more you collect, the better your score.
  • Gladiator Joust: Step up onto the podium and go head-to-head with an opponent, using foam jousts to knock them off balance. Last one standing wins the round.

As the rounds play out, points are collected across each challenge, building the competition as teams battle it out for the top spot. At the end, scores are totalled and the winners are crowned!
