A recreational day to invigorate the whole team

A recreational day is at its best when it's a break from everyday routines – shared activities that recharge your batteries and boost well-being at work. When an activity suits the group's fitness levels and wishes, the day still feels good even at your desk.

Active Entertainment brings together TYHY-day activities in Helsinki, both indoors and outdoors. Plan your day with a single point of contact – we'll take care of the activities, schedule, and catering. Activities starting from 19€ per person.

Mihin virkistyspäivä sopii

A recreational day is organised to support employee wellbeing, mark a seasonal change, or reward the team for a job well done. Popular times are spring and early autumn, but weather-proof indoor activities work all year round. The aim is to give the group a shared, energising experience that supports resilience and team spirit.

Plan the day according to the group

  • Group wish. Do you want to move your body and challenge yourself, or calm down and enjoy some relaxed time together?
     
  • Condition and participants. The activity should be suitable for the entire group – including those who aren't seeking a physical challenge.
     
  • Duration and schedule. Weekdays are often suitable for groups, as there is peace and quiet. Refreshments help keep the day's rhythm together.
     
  • Inside or outside. The weather and season should be taken into account during the planning stage.

Activities for a recreational day

You can select one activity or combine several on the same day.
  • Laserareena – Laser tag designed for teams on a multi-level arena. A low barrier to entry suits everyone and brings playful togetherness to the day.
  • Hohtogolf – Relaxed and social mini-golf in a glowing indoor world. Works reliably all year round, whatever the weather.
  • Irti Maasta – indoor climbing, where auto-belays and beginner-friendly routes make it easy to get started. Guiding staff support success.

Korkee connects movement, nature and calming down in a controlled environment. Open May to October In Blueberry Land and Paloheinä.

  • Rope adventure with several difficulty levels – new this season, tree climbing and gloves are included in the price of the rope adventure.
  • Forest yoga for a peaceful, restorative day of recreation.
  • Geo-adventure to investigative and collaborative work.
Other townsIndoor activities like climbing and glow-in-the-dark mini-golf are also available in Tampere (Tullintori), and climbing in Raisio and Pori (packages according to the offer). High-altitude nature activities and Redi combination packages are in Helsinki.

Three timeline models

A ready-made framework makes planning easier. Here are three general models that can be applied according to the group and time usage:

  • Active afternoon (approx. 2 pm – 8 pm). Arrival and activity → break and snack → light competition → transition to dining → dinner and socialising. The activity brings energy, and the evening naturally winds down. Suitable for small to medium-sized groups.
  • All day (approx. 9 am to 6 pm). Morning coffee → team's shared portion → activity → lunch → unwinding → light programme → summing up the day. Combines business and recreation into the same day.
  • After work (noun, 4 p.m. – 9 p.m.). Shared activity → transition → refreshments and informal mingling → light entertainment. Compact and easy to implement on a weekday.
Tip: Book a little buffer time for transitions, so the schedule stays relaxed without feeling rushed.

Safety and practical considerations

Each activity follows its own brand's safety instructions, and groups will be given clear guidance. Activities may have participation requirements, for example, regarding age, so please ensure the chosen option is suitable for the entire group. Equipment will be organised according to the chosen activity, and for outdoor activities, it's advisable to remind participants to dress appropriately for the weather.
