Despite being one of the wettest Junes on record, this month has seen the success of numerous memorable events. The rain isn't curbing our enthusiasm, so why should it yours? If you still haven’t sourced entertainment for your summer party or September conference...…we have plenty of great ideas which will take the pressure off!

Up Close & Personal

This month we would like you to get better acquainted (or re-acquainted) with some of our lesser known team building and entertainment options. Firstly, the invaluable conference format - 'Court in the Act.' Then why not find out how we can create that extra special element to your party with our range of exciting themes? Finally, because we promise that summer is coming...... take a look at our team building options, 'Outdoor Pursuits' and 'Sailing Days.'

Court in the Act:
Tense court-room drama combines with hilarious comedy to transform a potentially dry, predictable conference into a dramatic presentation involving all the material you need to communicate to your team in a memorable way!

An entirely new, fresh and compelling way to present your conference! We write your entire conference in the form of a courtroom drama. We put one of your Directors in the Dock accused of causing Grievous Bodily Harm to your competition due to his brilliant business strategies. Your key-note speakers are witnesses, cross-examined by the prosecuting and defending barristers played by actors and the winners of incentives will be called into the dock and sentenced by the judge, also played by an actor.

Evidence can be presented in the form of questions, cross examination, physical exhibits, video evidence, slides, graphs, expert witnesses, etc. The jury might be 12 of your Regional Managers and they can ask questions on behalf of their regions, or the Judge can even decide to throw the whole matter out into the Public Gallery.
Themed Events:
Organising a memorable event, whether corporate or private can be tricky, especially with all the usual elements of a ‘do’ to remember and also worrying about the wow factor! A theme can provide the perfect solution and talking point. What’s best of all, we can do it all for you! We will source the best quality entertainment, the most suitable venue, menu, as well as the spectacular job of theming the party from top to toe! It’s not just for parties either, themes are a brilliant addition to family fun days, corporate away days and much more - the only limit is your imagination!

Kick open the wooden doors and enter of fast-paced world of cactus lassoing, shoot outs and bucking broncos –just watch out for that pesky tumbleweed. Or if that’s not your style, relax a bit more and enjoy fine Caribbean rum under the palm trees, whilst the sound of a steel band lures you towards the beach casino….
Sailing Days and Outdoor Pursuits:
From driving four wheel twin engine 'power steer' karts, to learning the medieval art of falconry, The PFE outdoor pursuit's team has everything for your team's day out. Set in the beautiful Surrey countryside, the possibilities are endless!

For the sailing days, we create the ultimate high performance sailing experience tailored to your team budget and guaranteed to revitalise and thrill. Sailing is quite simply the most effective sport at facilitating teambuilding. It encompasses all the key ingredients of good teamwork; planning, motivation, delegation, leadership and communication. We can provide a comprehensive two-day solution or an introductory one-day itinerary. Whatever your requirements, we will work with you to understand your needs and develop an appropriate training solution. Your event will take place on high-spec yachts, with commercially endorsed yacht masters and trained skippers to guide you safely through the experience.

Recent Successes

The months just seem to get busier and busier…but we aren’t complaining! We have graced several forests in Britain with our deafening vocal presence this month, as we kicked off a series of raucous Musical Interactive Shows. They certainly let their hair down in the air guitar rounds – we just hope they made it to the next morning’s session…more news to follow, there’s still one region to go! Then, after the impressive transformation of a factory floor into a stunning white marquee, we held a fantastic daytime TV Quiz show for an especially poignant celebration. Finally, a special mention and thank you to our exceptionally talented artists that have spun fire, papped guests paparazzi style, read minds and amazed guests with mind boggling magic at parties up and down the country.
