Team Building

Take a break from the office and build some team spirit at the Pickering Museum Village.

Gather your crew and join us for a day filled with excitement at the Pickering Museum Village! Embark on an unforgettable journey across the museum grounds to complete fun and engaging challenges. Test your creativity, problem-solving skills, and teamwork by exploring the exhibits, completing creative challenges, and answering tricky questions. 

This is not your standard game of Capture the Flag. We've stepped up this classic outdoor game by combining it with laser tag. Did we mention you get to play this throughout the Museum Village? Find your competitive side and practice quick thinking and communication skills with your team.

Escape the Outbreak  

In the summer of 1854, the cholera epidemic swept through Canada. In this immersive escape room, players will be transported back in time and will be tasked with the most important role of all: finding a cure. Rumour has it that a government agent has stolen important research that may stop the epidemic in its tracks. Act quickly, before everyone’s time runs out, including your own!  

Escape the Cabin   

The year is 1837. The Upper Canada Rebellion has failed, and you and your rebel comrades are on the run from the local authorities. Remember – treason is a hanging crime these days. Thankfully, just as the militia are catching up, Mr. Smith offers you refuge in his cabin. What seems like a blessing at first quickly turns into a nightmare – once inside the cabin, you notice with dread that you have been tricked and locked inside. You and your group must escape the cabin and regain your freedom before Mr. Smith returns with the militia, and you go from rebels to prisoners. Good luck – your life may depend on it. 

Mystery of the Haunted Hotel  

You and your team are stranded at the museum, and the only open building is the hotel. But rumour says it’s haunted, and no one goes in there anymore. Solve puzzles and find clues to find out if it’s really haunted, or if someone is trying to keep people away for their own devious reason. It’s a combination escape room and mystery all rolled into one in this team adventure! 

Looking for a unique way to celebrate the season with your team or friends? Book a private Victorian Swag-Making workshop for festive fun and creative bonding! 

Your group will join a Museum Interpreter for a guided walk through our heritage site to harvest fresh cedar boughs, dogwood, and other natural accents. Then, gather together to craft beautiful holiday swags and learn how to make elegant ribbon bows. Each participant will create two stunning swags—perfect for decorating your home or gifting. 

This hands-on experience is completed outdoors, so remind your group to dress for the weather. We can accommodate up to 16 participants, making it ideal for workplace teams, social clubs, or friends looking for a memorable holiday outing.
