🎲 Facilitation Games Night
Forget the standard conference networking session. This is a room full of facilitators let loose on eight of the best games, activities and experiences in the business — part play, part learning, entirely unforgettable.
No room for boredom
Facilitation Games Night is the evening we set aside for pure energy: a room full of games, tools and experiences that facilitators use to build trust, spark creativity and get groups moving — the same ones you'll want to steal for your own practice. Wander between tables, jump in wherever looks interesting, and leave with a toolkit (and a few new friends) you didn't have when you walked in.

Once Upon Align

Anyone Can Learn to Innovate
Pitch a product, race the clock, and watch a table full of facilitators turn instantly competitive. The Start-Up Game is a hands-on innovation simulation that makes the messy, iterative reality of building something new feel obvious in hindsight — and ridiculously fun in the moment. Expect fist-pumps, friendly rivalry, and a few ideas you'll want to take home.
Helping Hands
Most team activities end when the timer stops. This one ends with someone, somewhere, receiving a prosthetic hand your table built with their own two hands. Working in small teams, you'll assemble a real, functioning prosthetic hand — including a stretch where you try using only your non-dominant hand, just to feel a fraction of what daily life is like for an amputee. You'll decorate a carry case, write a letter to the recipient, and take a group photo to send along with the donation. Every hand goes to someone who needs it, 100% free, thanks to the program's corporate partners.
What's involved
- Assembling a real prosthetic hand — one-handed
- Decorating a carry case for the hand
- Writing a letter to the recipient
- A group photo to send with the donation
What you'll take away
- A firsthand sense of purpose-driven facilitation
- Real insight into designing for empathy and inclusion
- A concrete, shareable example of "meaning over metrics"
Camp Venture
Camp Venture turns community development into a shared adventure. Teams take on quests that mirror real-world challenges — communicating, collaborating and problem-solving their way from silos and deficits toward creativity and collective action. It's playful on the surface and genuinely purposeful underneath, the same combination that makes it a favourite in Soulgen's work with communities and organisations across Australia.

Once Upon Align
What happens when a group has to make sense of something together, but no one has the full picture? Once Upon Align is a playful team simulation that brings the invisible dynamics of collaboration into view. Working together against the clock, participants have to share perspectives, make decisions and create meaning from incomplete information.
It's fun in the moment, but the real value comes afterwards. The experience opens up a rich conversation about how teams actually work together — revealing strengths and friction points including groupthink, blind spots, whose voices get heard, and how well a group can harness different perspectives. A deceptively simple game with plenty to unpack.
Zombie Improv
No script. No plan. Just you, the group, and whatever happens next. Zombie Improv is a hilarious, high-energy improv game that keeps everyone on their feet — thinking fast, adapting in the moment, and building on each other's ideas with a firm "yes, and…". It's the kind of activity that gets a room laughing, loosens everyone up, and bonds a group faster than any icebreaker worksheet ever could.
