Team building activities in Dubai
A team building format where the team has to actually cooperate: five people at a time inside a 100 m² arena, one shared world, no screens between them. Packages from 2,000 AED with the venue closed to your group. Rated 5.0 by 400+ guests on Google.
The honest part
Most team building fails for the same reason.
People are put in a room and asked to behave differently than they do at work, while everyone knows it is an exercise. Nothing is at stake, so nobody drops the office version of themselves. What changes that is pressure people actually feel, and a task that cannot be finished alone. Our part is simple: for 25 to 30 minutes a team has one objective, no phones, and no way to sit it out quietly.
Two formats
Pull together, or play against each other.
Co-op missions
One objective, five people
The group survives or fails together. Someone has to call directions, someone has to watch the back, and it becomes obvious within a minute who does what naturally. Better for mixed teams and for groups that have just been put together.
PvP tournament
Department against department
Teams take turns on a rooftop battlefield and a scoreboard runs through the event. Better for groups that already know each other and want a winner by the end of the day.
Mixed
Co-op first, tournament after
What most companies pick. The first rounds are co-op so nobody is exposed early, then the mood shifts to competition once everyone is comfortable in the gear.
How a day runs
Nobody stands in a corridor waiting.
The arena holds five players at once, so a group of twenty does not play at the same time. That is not a limitation to work around, it is how the format works: while one squad is inside, the rest are in the lounge watching the live feed of what is happening to their colleagues, which is usually louder than the arena itself.
1
Arrival and coffee
The group lands in the 150 m² lounge: leather sofas, barista coffee, a PlayStation corner. Nobody is rushed into gear straight off the road.
2
Briefing
A Game Master explains the world, the controls and the rules of the round. This takes minutes, and no previous VR experience is assumed from anyone.
3
Squads rotate
Five at a time, 25 to 30 minutes each. Squads are set by you or drawn at random, and mixing departments is where the useful part of the day usually happens.
4
Food between rounds
Pizza and drinks come out in the lounge while the next squad gears up, so the eating is not a separate block at the end that half the group skips.
5
Results
Scores are on screen, and a tournament ends with a winning squad. It gives the organiser a natural closing moment without a speech.
Packages
Prices for the whole group, not per head.
Every package covers the VR sessions, the private arena and the catering. The venue is closed to your group for the whole duration: no strangers walking through, no queue behind you.
| Package | Guests | Duration | Price | Catering included |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Squad 10 | up to 10 | 1.5 hours | 2,000 AED | 2 pizzas, 1 drink per guest |
| Squad 15 | up to 15 | 2 hours | 3,000 AED | 3 pizzas, 1 drink per guest |
| Squad 20 | up to 20 | 3 hours | 4,000 AED | 4 pizzas, 1 drink per guest |
| Squad 25 | up to 25 | 3.5 hours | 5,000 AED | 5 pizzas, 1 drink per guest |
| Squad 30 | up to 30 | 4 hours | 6,000 AED | 6 pizzas, 1 drink per guest |
Two things worth saying plainly. Events are quoted as a package, so the 10% code that applies to ordinary bookings does not stack on top of these prices. And there is no prepayment: the booking holds without a card, and you settle at the venue or against an invoice.

We are in Goshi Warehouse City, Al Quoz Industrial Area 3, which puts the venue inside the city rather than an hour out of it. Parking inside the guarded complex is paid and there is free street parking outside; tell us on WhatsApp beforehand and we keep one free spot at the entrance for whoever brings the cake or the equipment. Everything is indoors and air-conditioned, which between June and September is the whole argument. See also our guide to indoor activities in Dubai.
Larger groups
More than 30 people.
Thirty is our own ceiling for one booking. Above that we coordinate with neighbouring venues inside the same complex, so a larger company splits across activities without anyone leaving the territory or getting back into a car. It needs advance notice and the quota is worked out case by case, so start that conversation early rather than a week before.
Proof
What a real corporate day looked like.
We wrote up one of them properly rather than turning it into a testimonial: how the squads were split, what worked, and the moment a colleague with no VR experience at all found a combat drone and took out an opponent with it.

Questions
Team building in Dubai: what organisers ask.
How many people can you take?
From 6 to 30 in one booking. The arena runs five players at a time and the rest of the group waits in the lounge, so a group of thirty rotates through in about four hours. Above thirty we arrange it together with neighbouring venues in the same complex, with notice.
How much does team building cost in Dubai at VR Point?
Packages start at 2,000 AED for up to ten guests and go to 6,000 AED for up to thirty. The price covers the VR sessions, the private arena and the catering. It is quoted for the group rather than per person, so the cost per head drops as the group grows.
Does anyone need VR experience?
No, and in practice most of a corporate group has never done it. A Game Master fits the gear, explains the controls and stays with the squad through the round. The gear is worn rather than held, so there is nothing to learn beyond walking and pointing.
What if someone cannot or does not want to play?
They stay in the lounge and watch the live feed, which is a real part of the event rather than a consolation. Nobody is counted out of the group, and the catering is per guest regardless of whether they enter the arena.
Can you invoice the company?
Yes. There is no prepayment to hold the date, and the event can be settled against an invoice rather than a card at the door. Tell us the billing details when you confirm the group size.
How far ahead should we book?
For up to fifteen guests a few days is usually enough. For twenty and above, give it a week or more, especially for evening slots and weekends. Groups over thirty need the longest lead time because other venues are involved.
What time of day works best for a work group?
We open at 10:00 and run to midnight, and to 02:00 on Friday and Saturday. Late afternoon into evening is the common choice because people come straight from the office and the day ends over food rather than in traffic.
Is it suitable in summer?
That is when most groups book it. The whole 250 m² is air-conditioned, so nothing about the plan depends on the weather outside.
Tell us the group size and the date.
We come back with a package and a slot. No prepayment, and an invoice if you need one.
