It’s a thin line between enjoyable Christmas traditions and “haven’t we been doing this for about 100 years?” This year, forget the boring office party or being polite to Auntie Marge, and celebrate Christmas in style, with some wild and raucous adventures!

Founded in 2002, for over 20 years, Go Ape’s exciting forest adventures have been putting the screams, laughs, thumping hearts and sense of achievement to families, groups and parties. So where better to host a festive party with real altitude?

Combining paintball, laser tag, airsoft shooting and zombie experience in one huge military bunker-themed arena, Bunker 51’s immersive, non-stop action is the first of its kind in the UK. Already incredibly popular with big and little warriors alike, this unique venue offers a range of festive packages suited to groups of all sizes.

You’re guaranteed a party atmosphere at House of Holes, Derby's very own “adult” indoor crazy golf venue strictly for over-18s. Open afternoons till late 7 days a week, and dedicated to creating an informal social and party atmosphere, your group can take it from relaxed to wild, and anywhere in between.

If you fancy a Christmas get-together with a real breath of fresh air and rush of adrenaline, head to the Garry Bridge at Killiecrankie, near Pitlochry, where you’ll discover heart-pounding adventure in a uniquely stunning natural setting.
