Whether you work from home or you’re getting back into the swing of office life, it’s time to let your hair down — we’re talkin’ about you, bosses — for some team bonding experiences. We’ve gathered nine opportunities to plan for your next office outing and break up the monotony of work.

Team bonding

The Asheville Kitchen | Come together + make something delicious (we love the French macaroon class and the Chinese noodle workshop) when you book a private class with The Asheville Kitchen.

FOX-N-OTTER Adventure Escapes | Chose a theme and work together to escape in less than 60 minutes.

Bounty & Soul | Volunteer with this Black Mountain-based nonprofit + support its mission to increase community access to fresh produce and wellness education.

Fired Up! Creative Lounge | Book a team building party with this studio and try your teams’ hand at pottery painting, glass fusing, canvas painting, or pottery making.

AR Workshop Asheville | Come together with your team and make something you can take home at the end of the day — like a charcuterie board or a modern planter.

Friendly competition

Axeville | Incorporating axes into the workday isn’t only for wood workers and lumberjacks. Book a couple axe throwing lanes for your team or have Axeville’s mobile axe throwing unit come to you.

Sky Lanes Bowling | In our minds, bowling is the epitome of friendly competition. Invite your team out for a game or two + enjoy a bite at Sky Lanes’ grill.

The Track at Asheville | Host a staff event at this unique venue featuring sim racing — an unparalleled virtual racing experience.

Asheville Sports Club | Reserve one of this downtown spot’s pickleball or basketball courts + enjoy the menu of espresso drinks, beer, hard cider, wine, cocktails, and mocktails.
