Christmas Dinner
From BBQs by the beach to roast dinners with all the trimmings, food is at the heart of Christmas. In Christmas Dinner, teams roll up their sleeves to plan, prep, and plate up a festive feast, then sit down to share it together. Guided by our Head Chef and armed with a surprise pantry of ingredients, teams must collaborate under pressure to deliver a two-course culinary masterpiece. The reward? Good food, great laughs, and a shared celebration that tastes even better because your team made it together. Cook, connect, and let the festive flavours fly.
Years of PLAY

I’ve received a number of comments and compliments from staff who say that the MasterChef Challenge was great fun and the BEST team building activity they have participated in throughout there time at Mirvac..
Would thoroughly recommend using Corporate Challenge – very professional and very quick to put things in place so our event could go ahead at short notice.
Team thoroughly enjoyed the event working as a team and doing something fun.
All of the CCE staff involved were attentive, courteous and very helpful.
Anita was a pleasure to deal with, and we look forward to the next time we hold a team building event. All attendees were very high in praise of not only the venue, but also the professionalism of the CCE staff, who made this event fun. Thank you.
A great event that made everyone laugh and smile. The venue was perfect, food, setup, charity focus etc. All brilliant .. one of the best things our team has ever done. I loved the way we all could get involved.

How it Works
Yes chef
Christmas spirit starts in the kitchen. Teams arrive to meet their Corporate Challenge Events Head Chef and receive the day’s culinary mission: create a two-course festive meal using the surprise pantry on hand. You’ll be given access to key ingredients, cooking tools, and a blank slate to plan your perfect menu.
Ready set cook
But this is no leisurely bake-off, teams must strategise how to allocate time, resources, and responsibilities to keep the kitchen moving. From deciding on the perfect flavour combo to mastering plating under pressure, it’s a fast-paced experience that rewards clear communication, teamwork, and a sprinkle of creativity.
The Competition
Once the cooking clock runs out, dishes are presented to the judges, our Head Chef and special guests who score on presentation, taste, teamwork, and festive flair. There’s plenty of opportunity to showcase your team’s personality… especially if it ends up in dessert form.
Bon Appétit
With judging complete, the real joy begins: sitting down together to enjoy the shared feast your team just created. The kitchen may cool off, but the atmosphere is warm, full of laughter, and rich in shared achievement.
Christmas Dinner is more than a cooking challenge, it’s an edible celebration of teamwork, connection, and the magic of making something together.
