Funen is not called the garden of Denmark without reason. The island offers a mild climate, rolling landscapes and a density of historic manor houses and castles that is unmatched anywhere else in Denmark. While Zealand was historically dominated by large royal landholdings and state forests, Funen was divided into many earldoms with privately owned estates and manor houses. The result is an island packed with beautiful privately owned castles, park landscapes and manor houses that provide an extraordinary setting for team building in historic surroundings. Midgaard Event has been delivering experience-based events for companies since the year 2000, and we travel across all of Funen with activities that engage, challenge and unite.
Our concepts are designed to work anywhere on the island. In the castle park, at the conference centre, in the banquet hall or in the streets of the city. We adapt the activity to your location, number of participants and purpose.
Funen offers a rich selection of outdoor settings for team building. Privately owned castle parks with centuries of history, dense deciduous forests, dramatic coastlines and vibrant urban environments provide possibilities that are hard to find anywhere else in the country. We have outdoor activities that make active use of these surroundings and create experiences that are remembered long after the day is over.

CSI is an investigation game with professional actors that takes place in the streets and alleyways of the city. Participants investigate a dramatic crime mystery in a team competition, and everyone is active from the first clue to the final accusation. The game suits 10 to 150 participants and lasts 4 to 5 hours.
On Funen we particularly recommend four cities that lend themselves excellently as the setting for an intense investigation experience.
In Odense the game can be based around H.C. Andersen’s historic quarter with its narrow streets and low half-timbered houses that tell the story of the city’s past. The Odense river winds through the city creating natural transitions between urban spaces and green areas, and the historic city centre with the town hall and cathedral provides a strong and compelling setting for the investigation.
In Nyborg the historic city centre contains Nyborg Castle, one of Denmark’s oldest royal seats, and the medieval streets and trading squares that for many years were the centre of the realm. These are surroundings with a historic weight that provides a truly unique backdrop for a murder mystery.
In Svendborg the beautiful waterfront and old trading streets provide a vibrant and authentic setting for the investigation. With views over the South Funen Archipelago and the green islands on the horizon, it is a city that almost sets the scene for a dramatic crime story by itself.
In Middelfart the historic city centre and striking surroundings by the Little Belt and the bridge across the sound create a special atmosphere. The city’s maritime history and the scenic surroundings along the strait provide a different and compelling backdrop for an intense investigation game.
THE CHALLENGE is our adventure-based outdoor team building, where teams tackle a series of physical and mental challenges in competition against each other. It creates energy, laughter and a strong sense of community, and can be delivered across Funen for 6 to 720 participants.
Funen is rich in privately owned castle parks that are perfect for The Challenge. Egeskov Castle with its imposing Renaissance castle and extensive park is one of Denmark’s most spectacular castles and provides an extraordinary setting for a team building day in historic surroundings. Broholm Castle near Gudme offers a beautiful castle park with ancient forest and open lawns. Holckenhavn Castle near Nyborg is beautifully situated by the fjord with park landscapes that provide plenty of space for outdoor activities. Hvedholm Castle in Southwest Funen is surrounded by beautiful nature and ancient forests, and Harridslevgaard north of Odense provides easily accessible historic surroundings close to the island’s largest city.
If you prefer natural areas over castle parks, Svanninge Bakker in Southwest Funen offers a hilly and forested landscape that is unique for an island like Funen. Fruens Bøge near Odense is a classic and beautiful beech forest close to the city, and Bøjden Nor in Southwest Funen combines a coastal lake and coastal landscape in a peaceful natural area.
If you are looking for a completely different experience in nature, we have role-play based activities that create memories no one forgets. ROLE-PLAY: ALONG GANDALF’S PATHS sends teams out into the forest in an epic role-play universe with tactics, collaboration and action. ROLE-PLAY: FANTASY BATTLE combines strategy and combat in an outdoor team competition that challenges both mind and body. Funen’s many forests and natural areas provide perfect settings for both activities, and they suit groups from 8 to 400 participants.
With our mobile escape rooms we bring the experience directly to you, wherever on Funen you are based. We bring all equipment and set up on site, so you can focus on the experience.
OUTBREAK MOBILE ESCAPE ROOM is our most popular mobile concept for corporate events. Up to 120 participants split into teams play and compete simultaneously, while a live scoreboard keeps everyone engaged from start to finish. It is an ideal choice for conference days and corporate parties at Funen’s many conference centres, hotels and manor houses, and we set up before you arrive.
ESCAPE THE BOX is a 30-minute escape game for 4 to 1,000 participants that works almost anywhere. It is ideal as a highlight on a conference day, as a warm-up for a larger event, or as a standalone team building activity with high energy and plenty of momentum.

Funen is home to a large number of conference centres, hotels and manor houses that offer professional settings for corporate events. The historic surroundings at many of Funen’s castles and manor houses provide a truly special backdrop for indoor activities, and our concepts are designed to work in these settings independent of the weather.
A murder mystery is one of the most involving and entertaining team building activities we offer, and the historic settings at Funen’s manor houses and castles provide an almost perfect backdrop for a dramatic crime evening. All participants are active players from the first scene, and no one can hide in the background.
BARON BARTHOLDY’S MURDER MYSTERY DINNER brings 20 to 100 participants together around a dramatic dinner theatre performance with professional actors. THE TESTAMENT MURDER MYSTERY DINNER is an intimate murder mystery for 5 to 35 participants, where the group sits close to the action and must find the killer themselves. Both concepts can be delivered anywhere on Funen and can be combined with your choice of venue and catering.
A casino evening is the perfect after-dinner programme following a day of professional content or other activities. We bring professional casino equipment and trained dealers to your location on Funen, and make sure everyone feels welcome at the tables — regardless of whether they have played roulette before or not. Play is with fictitious chips, and the atmosphere is high from the first deal.

For groups looking for an indoor activity with high involvement and plenty of puzzle-solving, we offer GODFATHER CLUEDO and 007 CLUEDO. Both concepts bring 8 to 500 participants together around a shared investigation scenario, and are ideal for conference days and meeting days at Funen’s many conference centres and manor houses. TEAM 007 combines indoor and outdoor elements and suits 8 to 80 participants.
The most effective teams are not necessarily those with the most experienced employees, but those that have learned to work together, communicate precisely and make use of each other’s strengths. These are competencies that are not developed in the meeting room alone, but through shared experiences under real conditions. Read more about what TEAM BUILDING can do for your team.
Experience-based team building creates exactly these experiences. When the team works together to solve a mission under time pressure, situations arise that reveal and develop the collaboration dynamic in a way that is hard to replicate in a traditional exercise. Participants discover new sides of each other, roles are distributed naturally, and shared successes create a reference that is taken back to everyday life.
The effect is not limited to the activity day itself. The shared experiences, the funny moments and the surprising performances live on in the team’s culture and strengthen the informal cohesion that is the foundation of a well-functioning working community.
Our activities are designed with high involvement in mind and train competencies that are directly transferable to working life:
Communication under pressure is essential in all our concepts. Precise and effective communication is the difference between succeeding and running out of time.
Collaboration and trust arise naturally when everyone depends on each other to succeed in the mission.
Creative problem-solving is essential when solutions are not obvious and require thinking across disciplines and outside the box.
Roles and leadership take shape spontaneously when the team under time pressure figures out who coordinates, who acts and who thinks.
Community and humour are not a by-product. A team that has had fun and celebrated together performs better afterwards.
Funen is home to a wide range of conference centres, hotels and manor houses that offer professional settings for corporate events of all sizes. Midgaard Event has experience delivering team building that fits naturally into these settings, whether it is a short engaging highlight on a meeting day or a full-day event with several activities in beautiful historic surroundings.
Small groups (6-20 participants) get an intense and focused experience. A murder mystery at a manor house, a mobile escape room or an outdoor activity in one of Funen’s beautiful castle parks. We make sure the experience feels personal and not generic.
Medium-sized groups (20-60 participants) can combine mobile escape rooms with other activities and create a full day with variety and energy. Outbreak Mobile is designed precisely for this group size and works well at most conference centres and hotels.
Large groups (60+ participants) require logistics and experience. With Escape the Box, CSI and The Challenge we can put together a programme that works at the right scale and still feels involving for each individual participant, whether you are gathered at a conference centre in Odense, a manor house near Svendborg or a castle in Southwest Funen.
We come to you anywhere on Funen. Whether you are based in Odense, Svendborg, Nyborg, Middelfart or Assens, we set up at your location and ensure professional delivery from start to finish. You don’t need to think about transport, logistics or setup.
A typical team building activity with us lasts 1 to 5 hours depending on the concept. If you want a full-day arrangement, we are happy to put together a programme that combines several activities and optionally includes catering, lunch or dinner.
Midgaard Event delivers team building across the whole country. Here you will find inspiration for team building in other regions and cities.
