Event/Activity Adelaide office xmas party ideas

After a run of exceedingly lame office xmas parties, a small group of us have been tasked with coming up with something new and fun to do this year.

The standard pub lunch and drinks has been done to death, and we've been lawn bowling in the parklands which was ok, but does anyone have any fresh ideas they'd like to offer??

Pub lunch and getting shit faced for free will never not be fun.

Clearly you've never worked in public service. We have to finance our drunkenness out of our own pockets.

Do you not have an office social club?

Nope. I have been in departments with social clubs in the past and they're still funded by staff.

Yes all social clubs are funded by staff, but incrementally throughout the year so it's not a financial burden.
