This month, we’re highlighting Bankside activities to inspire your next ‘team building’ session. Whether you’re celebrating a company achievement, have an incentive afternoon or are looking to entertain, you can find something unique and interesting right on your doorstep.
Cocktail evening events at Hixter:
This year Mark’s Bar Bankside will be hosting a series of collaborations with their British drinks producers to create a calendar of events you won’t want to miss. The next event, on Tuesday 20 May, is a feature on Cotswold Distillery. Your team will enjoy a mini-dish menu of seasonal food paired to four Cotswold Distillery cocktails. This is a great post-work evening team activity, whether you’re welcoming new starters, or celebrating a company achievement, make sure to do it in style at Mark’s Bar.

Wine tasting at Bedales:
For the wine connoisseurs amongst the team, this group wine tasting package at Bedales is a fantastic experience. The tastings begin at £35 per person for an informal tasting of 5-6 wines with personality, tailored to your style. The session also includes artisan cheese & charcuterie from Borough Market to share. This activity would suit a smaller more intimate group, whether an incentive treat or client entertaining.
Italian bread baking masterclass at Macellaio RC:
You can find Macellaio RC tucked away in the cosy Old Union Yard Arches, Union Street. Enjoy a three course lunch or dinner with a twist. Get involved with a hands-on intimate class led by the Executive Chef and Head Baker in the Ligurian Bakery before tucking into the set menu. Suitable for bookings of 2-6 people and a great idea for a more interactive and demonstrative dining experience.
Private tour of Tate Modern
A great option for a larger group, and something for the culture and art fans. Choose from a general highlights tour or focus on a specific area of the collection. Alternatively, they can organise a tailor-made tour for your group on a theme of your choice. Work your way around while hearing the specific knowledge and anecdotes from an expert Tate guide. Why not consider a tour around the Andy Warhol exhibition open from March 12 – September 6.
