Our Themed Amazing Race is the Classic Amazing Race with one playful twist: the entire experience is brought to life through your chosen theme.

It has the same city-wide route, live checkpoints, point-scoring and mix of clever puzzles, ridiculous challenges and team competition, all reworked with a Blockbuster, Cowboy or Pirate spin. Dress up if your team wants to take the theme even further, or come as you are.

A live host kicks things off, explains the rules and hands each team a themed race kit. Choose your teams beforehand or leave the matchmaking to us. From there, teams follow clues across the city, tackling themed puzzles, creative tasks and hands-on challenges, with plenty of laugh-out-loud moments captured on camera.

Speed helps, but it won’t win the race on its own. Points are awarded for creativity, strategy and sharp thinking, so everyone has a chance to make their mark. You won’t need specialist knowledge of your theme to do well. We handle the route, supply the gear, staff the live checkpoints and stay in contact with teams throughout.

At the final pitstop, everyone reunites to tally the scores, crown the champions and hand out the medals. Office bragging rights included.

Choose your theme

Blockbuster: Step into the world of movies with film-inspired trivia, puzzles and creative challenges. Teams can dress as a favourite film, character or genre.

Cowboy: Give the race a Wild West twist with cowboy-themed clues and challenges. Hats and boots are encouraged, but entirely optional.

Pirate: Follow clues, complete swashbuckling challenges and race towards the final checkpoint in search of victory. Pirate crews and costumes are welcome.

Have your own theme in mind? Tell us about it in your enquiry and we can build a themed race just for you.

WHAT'S INCLUDED:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Duration: Approximately 2-3 hours.

How it runs: The format is similar to our Classic Amazing Race, with clues and challenges adapted to your chosen theme. Teams earn points at each checkpoint, and the fastest-scoring team wins, so crossing the finish line first does not guarantee victory.

Theme knowledge: No specialist knowledge is required. The theme shapes the clues and challenges, but teamwork, strategy and creativity still matter most.

Teams: Decide your teams in advance, or we can do it for you.

Dress-ups: Completely optional, but always encouraged. Dress to match your chosen theme, add a few accessories or come as you are.

Start and finish: Start at your office or a central CBD meeting point. Your final checkpoint can be near a restaurant, bar or venue organised by your group, so the celebrations can continue afterwards.

Group size: Our CBD races can accommodate groups of any size. Alternative locations are available for groups of fewer than 40 people.

Weather: Races go ahead in wet weather. If conditions look particularly challenging closer to the event, we’ll talk you through the flexible options available.
