Indianapolis is the biggest city in Indiana, and it’s state capitol. You’ll find lots of culture here, including art galleries, history museums, and cool public art, and green spaces. But if you’re looking for some grand team building activities, Indianapolis has a ton to offer! You can also count on plenty of quality hotels in the downtown area. Any team playing at the Indiana Convention Center can take advantage of the guide of attractions and restaurants located near the center.

For racing fans in Indianapolis, the Dallara IndyCar Factory is a slice of heaven on earth, and for the rest of the crew, it’s just plain fascinating.

Head to the 23,000 square-foot Interactive Hall, a hands-on mecca for lovers of the world’s fastest sport. Sit behind the wheel of a real IndyCar as you compete with your teammates to see who can clock the fastest time on the state-of-the-art race simulators.

100 Acres Art & Nature Park

The Indianapolis Museum of Art is a world-class art museum that’s worth a visit for art lovers, but it’s the 100-acre space out back that draws kids from all over the city to explore woodlands, wetlands, meadows, and a 35-acre lake while encountering huge, interactive sculptures that invite you to climb, swing, balance, and play. Walk the water’s edge on Stratum Pier, stacked terraces made of green fiberglass and steel, and keep your eyes peeled for ginormous red map pins that tell you all about fascinating features of the landscape. A sculpture called Free Basket is a web of steel arcs you can shimmy up and balance on, a bright red and blue jungle gym of sorts with a basketball hoop smack in the middle. 4000 N Michigan Rd, Indianapolis, IN 46208

White River State Park

White River State Park sounds like a place you’d find outside the city, but it’s actually a 250-acre park smack in the middle of downtown Indianapolis. There’s a whole lot for your team to do here, including visiting the Indianapolis Zoo featuring savanna, forest, ocean, and desert landscapes and the 230 species of animals that call them home. The park is also home to the NCAA Hall of Champions, featuring two levels of interactive exhibits that celebrate all 23 NCAA sports and the student athletes who make them worth watching. Nearby Indiana State Museum shines a light on Indiana history and it’s here that you can catch a quick flick on the six-story IMAX screen. If it’s fresh air you’re looking for, rent a bike or a boat at Wheel Fun Rentals and pedal or paddle your way through the park to see the sights and get a little exercise. 801 W Washington St, Indianapolis, IN 46204

Rhythm! Discovery Center

This unique interactive museum is all about rhythm.

The Groove Space has a collection of hundreds of percussion instruments from around the world that you can play with your friends in an epic jam. Try out the practice rooms, where you can change the acoustics to hear what a cowbell sounds like in an echo chamber, or a gong in a cathedral. Claypool Court Building, 110 W Washington St A, Indianapolis, IN 46204

Eagle Creek Park

Eagle Creek Park is one of America’s largest city parks at 3,900 acres, and there’s a lot to do here. You won’t believe a park so large could be found in Indianapolis. Visit the Go Ape! Treetop Adventure and move through the canopy with the greatest of ease with the help of rope ladders, trapezes, swings, net bridges, and zip lines. The Eagle Creek Park Swimming Beach has lifeguards on duty, but if you’d rather play on the reservoir than in it, you can rent canoes, kayaks, paddle boats, and rowboats at the marina.

You can fish for crappie, walleye, bluegill, and largemouth bass at several favorite fishing spots, and numerous playgrounds offer plenty of opportunities for climbing, swinging, and running wild. Sixteen miles of trails lure nature-lovers through mature woods, open meadows, and past the reservoir and Lilly Lake, and shaded picnic spots dot the park in case you want to enjoy some takeout al fresco. Hanging out and having fun with your team while you’re traveling is a great way to bond. 7840 W 56th Street, Indianapolis, IN 46254
