2026 trends in team building: immersive experiences and nature

In 2026, the team building is taking a decidedly experiential and nature-oriented turn. Gone are the days of rigid or impersonal formats: companies are looking for places and activities that reconnect employees with each other, but also with their environment. At the heart of this evolution, immersive green getaways near Paris are emerging as the ideal alternative to traditional seminars.

At The Oasis House, we are seeing growing demand for formats that combine natural disconnection and high-tech workspaces, with tailor-made activities in unique venues that can be privatized.

Immersion and authenticity: the keys to team building in 2026

The world of team building is evolving to meet a dual need: reconnecting teams and offering them a break from their daily routine. In 2026, immersive experiences are booming. They allow teams to take a break, strengthen bonds, and foster engagement.

The most popular formats:

• Escape games with storylines set in the great outdoors
• Collaborative simulations (crisis management, innovation challenges)
• Immersive workshops focusing on taste, technique, or creativity

These experiences are offered in inspiring locations, far from traditional meeting rooms. Just one hour from Paris, The Oasis House offers private houseswith ergonomic and fully equipped workspaces: ultra-HD cameras for video conferencing, professional screens, stage lighting, designer furniture, and more.
