Colmore Community Community Games

Community Games

The Colmore Community Games is an annual celebration of fun, teamwork, and friendly competition, bringing businesses from across the Colmore Business District together for a light-hearted sports day.

Inspired by classic school sports days, the Community Games provide a unique opportunity for teams to bond, build camaraderie, and enjoy a playful afternoon outside the office.

 

What to Expect

Teams from Colmore-based businesses compete in a variety of entertaining activities, including races, relays, and team challenges. Past events have featured:

  • Egg and Spoon Races
  • Sack Races
  • Tug of War
  • Caterpillar Relays
  • The Unicorn Derby

 

The event is designed for adults to embrace the spirit of fun competition while fostering teamwork, collaboration, and community connection across the District.

After the games, all participants are invited to a social gathering with drinks and nibbles to celebrate their efforts and network with colleagues from other businesses.

 

A Charitable Spin

The Community Games also support local charities and good causes across Birmingham, combining fun with a positive impact.

 

How to Take Part

Teams from Colmore-based businesses are encouraged to join. We run open calls when applications are open, giving businesses the chance to secure a place in the next event.
