If you think a gala dinner in a medieval castle, environmental volunteering, a laughter therapy workshop or a flash mob have little to do with a corporate event, it’s because you haven’t yet discovered The Green Vintage Events.
Based in Barcelona, this agency specialising in team-building activities and event planning shows that innovation, creativity and sustainability are not only compatible, but also essential when it comes to creating meaningful connections, emotions and lasting memories.
A love of nature and nostalgia for the past
The company’s name comes from these two concepts, and reflects the mission statement of Paula Bao and Gemma Oliveras, two entrepreneurs who decided to join forces in 2014 to transform the corporate events sector.
The Green Vintage Events designs and produces fully customised experiences tailored to the size and values of each company, with sustainability as a guiding principle throughout the entire process.
From planning to delivery, they work to minimise the environmental impact of every project by applying responsible practices and teaming up with local suppliers. This commitment goes beyond their business activity: they aim to be agents of change, working with charitable organisations and promoting social initiatives that have a tangible positive impact. All of these best practices have earned them the Destination Barcelona Commitment to Sustainable Tourism certificate.
Experiences that leave a lasting impression
The possibilities are as limitless as their clients’ imagination. Behind every initiative is a passionate multidisciplinary team that using its creativity and expertise to transform conferences and celebrations into unique and memorable experiences.
Team-building activities are another of their strengths. Convinced that team strength transcends office settings, they offer experiences designed to reinforce cohesion and communication, always through a fun, eco-friendly approach.
Their sustainable team-building proposals include environmental volunteering days, where participants help remove invasive plant species and deepen their understanding of local biodiversity through activities such as building nesting boxes to support ecosystem balance.
The programme is rounded out by creative and cultural activities, including trencadís mosaic workshops to stimulate collective creativity and batucada drumming sessions that highlight the power of working together as a group. It also includes socially focused initiatives, such as making toys for charitable organisations, and sporting options like beach Olympics and mountain orienteering challenges.
For teams seeking more intense challenges, The Green Vintage Events also offers adventure experiences such as survival raids that test participants’ physical and mental endurance in natural environments.
A vision for the future
The Green Vintage Events demonstrates that commitment, creativity and expertise not only help to build a better world, but also add value to the companies that embrace these values.
Their professional, values-driven teams work with clients to design tailor-made events that create lasting memories without doing lasting harm to the environment.
