Reel Time Events got asked for an X factor style kilt dressing session to form a part of a mini indoor highland games.  The clients wanted some fun and interactive challenges that teams could compete in to collect the prizes.

With their conference being in Scotland this year, they thought that the highland games was a great theme.  The venue was the Barcelo Carlton, which does not have any adjoining fields, so indoor highland games it was!

As the group was predominantly ladies, we geared the activities for them.

In their 2.5 hours they

  • Learnt how to dress in an old style kilt, with supervision from 2 hairy warriors.
  • Made a pair of earrings in the jewellery workshop.
  • Learnt the basics of Mixology, and made themselves a whisky cocktail.
  • Learnt how to play the bagpipes
  • Had a highland fling and ceilidh dancing taster course to help with their gala dinner dancing!

With such a diverse range of Scottish activities, the guests all left feeling like they had picked up some very useful skills and information, at the same time as mixing with a great spectrum of Scottish culture.  Clan warriors, Pipe major, highland dancers, Scottish silversmith, one of Edinburghs top cocktail mixologists.

We also provided:

2 pipers for the groups formal evenings, at The Caves, and Edinburgh Castle.

1 VIP kilt outfit for the director of the company, who wanted to dress traditionally on the final evening.

Reel Time Events has a range of teambuilding challenges.  They can tailor an afternoon of activities to suit the needs of your guests, along with the constraints of your budget.
