5 ways to celebrate the end of the year with your colleagues in Luxembourg
December 10, 2025
The end of the year, with its traditional team meals, Christmas parties, and team-building activities, offers the perfect opportunity to reflect on the past months in a more relaxed atmosphere and finally press pause. Whether in our personal lives or at the office, taking time to unwind and sharing a common activity creates stronger bonds, allows us to get to know each other better, and goes beyond everyday interactions.
As a "Great Place to Work," Pluxee prioritizes the well-being of its teams. Because a positive office atmosphere also thrives on enjoyable moments spent outside of work, we've compiled 5 ideas to celebrate the end of 2025 with your colleagues in Luxembourg.
1. Get some fresh air and recharge your batteries
There's nothing like spending time outdoors to strengthen team cohesion. Being active in a natural environment improves concentration, social skills, and self-confidence. In Luxembourg, there's no shortage of opportunities for outdoor activities. Despite its small size, the country boasts astonishing and well-preserved biodiversity.
Recharging outdoors while engaging in a sporting activity—gentle or more intense—is an excellent way to strengthen bonds between colleagues. Nature invites serenity, reducing distractions and stress, and encourages mutual support while fostering spontaneous interactions.
Hiking, orienteering, mountain biking, treetop adventure courses… specialized organizations in Luxembourg offer numerous options for team-building experiences.
2. Let the show begin!
If you'd rather stay immersed in the magic of the holiday season, why not opt for a show? In December, let yourself be captivated by one of the performances of the Luxembourg Circus, set up on Place du Glacis for the Christmas festivities. The quality of the acts and the emotions evoked by the professional artists from around the world will undoubtedly leave you speechless!
Numerous concerts also enliven the city during this period, as they do every year: Christmas carols, candlelight festivities, jazz, gospel… there's something for everyone.
Why not extend this shared experience with your team over a drink or a delicious meal, using your Pluxee card?
3. A guided tour of the capital
Here's an ideal group activity. If you've never taken a guided tour of Luxembourg City, now's the perfect time to change that. Discover unusual places and listed buildings in the capital through various themed tours offered by the Luxembourg City Tourist Office.
For the holidays, special "Winterlights by Night" tours are organized. Lasting 1.5 hours, these tours will take you through the Upper Town, the train station area, to the Kinnekswiss ice rink, and into the tunnel of lights on Place des Martyrs, all accompanied by an official guide.
After your tour, end the day in style by gathering around the Christmas market for a complimentary drink.
4. Relaxation: discovering and tasting beers
If you've already explored Luxembourg City or prefer to stay warm, another guided experience awaits: a visit to the Brasserie Nationale du Luxembourg, home to Bofferding and Battin beers, in Bascharage. It's the largest brewery in the Grand Duchy, a family business with a history spanning 10 generations!
After a comprehensive tour of the facilities – tours are available in several languages – you'll enjoy an introduction to beer tasting and sample five different beers. A perfect way to unwind, in moderation of course.
5. Creation: a creative workshop
Creative hobbies are known for their relaxing, stress-reducing, and confidence-boosting properties. Art therapy offers a way to combine artistic creation with therapeutic goals. Some practices, like embroidery or knitting, are even akin to a form of meditation. Indeed, the artistic medium can help explore emotions and gain a better understanding of oneself. These benefits perfectly align with the objectives of a successful team-building event!
In Luxembourg, a multitude of art workshops allow everyone to find an activity that suits them, even those who don't necessarily have an artistic flair. Here are a few examples:
- Ceramics from our Gift partner Atelier Luxera (Luxembourg)
- Theatre, painting, modeling and clay sculpture (Cessange, Luxembourg)
- Kintsugi - Japanese ceramics (Luxembourg)
- Theater (Differdange)
- Sushi culinary workshop(Luxembourg) or cocktails (Kockelscheuer)
Whatever type of activity you choose to get together at the end of the year, the important thing is that it makes sense for your team, so you can close out the year on a positive and inspiring note. This will help you start 2026 with colleagues who share strong and genuine bonds!
