Culinary Activities
COOKING
Bring teams together to cook using fresh ingredients from Hokkaido’s land and sea. The Hokkaido Cooking Challenge not only fosters closer bonds as teams share in delicious flavors and the fun of the experience, it also encourages creative thinking and communication through competition.
SWEETS
Surrounded by fruit orchards, dairy farms, and a booming agricultural industry, it’s no surprise that Sapporo is known as the “Kingdom of Sweets”. Get a hands on Sapporo sweets experience by making ice cream using straight-from-the-farm, fresh milk, or creating a unique Shiroi Koibito cookie, Hokkaido’s most popular souvenir.
Immersive Experience
SNOW ACTIVITY
This team-building program allows participants to enjoy Sapporo’s winter to the fullest. Teams of 5 or 6 take part in “snow flags” games, an active ice cream making experience, and finally everyone comes together to enjoy a barbeque. Great for improving team bonding!
ICE DINING BAR
Experience an “extremely cool” cocktail party, unique to winter in Hokkaido, surrounded by ice. Cheers with drinks served in ice glasses!
YOSAKOI
YOSAKOI Soran, the dance that whips Hokkaido into a frenzy. Even first-timers can join in, as teams compete in a dance-off that improves the members’ bonding skills. A fun-for-all, physical way of experiencing Hokkaido’s culture.
CULTURE
Get a glimpse of the Ainu culture and history through a performance of Ainu dancing, which has been designated as a national folklore asset, or dive deeper with a contemporary Ainu performance using traditional instruments, song, and dance.
Deep Dive into Sapporo
TREASURE
Odori Park is the heart of Sapporo City. In this team building activity groups will solve puzzles about Sapporo and Hokkaido and complete missions while exploring the central Odori area. A certain amount of flexible thinking is required to solve the puzzles, with a sense of accomplishment helping to strengthen team spirit.
NATURE
Just 40 minutes south of the city center lies a natural oasis, marked by the striking Mt. Hakkenzan. Here there is a 7-hectare fruit farm, complete with fishing pond, orchard, and BBQ area, as well as opportunities for outdoor activities such as fruit picking, horseback riding, and even an eco-focused team building program.
SHOPPING
Running parallel just a few blocks from Odori Park is another must-visit spot in Sapporo city, the Tanukikoji Shopping Arcade. The 150-year-old covered arcade is approximately 1-km-long, and is filled with around 200 different shops. Tanuki Vision allows event organizers to display personal messages on 6 large TV screens located throughout the arcade – a great opportunity to give participants a surprise as they shop!
LIGHT UP
Designed by the same architect as the famous Tokyo Tower, the Sapporo TV Tower is an iconic and beloved centerpiece of Sapporo city, proudly resting at the top of Odori Park. Why not light up the tower in the company color?
