We’ve had a really fantastic year here at The Play Company.

We’ve worked on plenty of retrofits, new builds and maintenance jobs that have covered the world, it’s all been really hard work.

So to say “Thank You” to the team, we merged our End of Year Communications Event with our Festive Party, but what did we get upto?

We started the day with a presentation from the CEO, Elliott Myatt. Whom spoke about our good points ( and bad ) over 2024, looking at working on internal improvements for a more efficient and fun 2025.

Between the presentation, the team were served with multiple fun activities to get involved and interact with wider members of the team.

• We got all managers to be the ‘Best Snowman’, wrapping them up in toilet roll.
• We did a bingo where people had to find someone different to each question on the sheet.
• And we rounded it off with a BIG quiz.

What a night to remember! The Play Company International team swapped workwear for black tie as we attended The Nottys, a prestigious awards evening celebrating the very best in the industry. And guess what? We didn’t just attend—we walked away as winners!

The night was a whirlwind of excitement, starting with our team ( whom you can learn about here ) gathering together in our finest attire. It’s not every day we get to trade blueprints and brainstorming sessions for a red carpet and champagne flutes, but we embraced it in style.

As the awards were announced, we cheered and applauded the incredible achievements of other businesses—though let’s be honest, our table had a slight feeling of suspense. When Play Company International’s name was called, the room filled with our cheers (and maybe a little squeal from Claire and Eviee). Elliott took to the stage to accept the award on behalf of the entire team, delivering a heartfelt speech that reminded everyone why we do what we do: creating playful, innovative spaces that bring joy and excitement to communities around the world.

Every year, we love to show off some of the more recient deisgns, installs and creations that have come to fruition.

Whether it’s a retrofit, new build or Strike Arena. The passion we put into these designs is something we want to show off.
