away day

Office bonding trip

An away day is a day when employees leave their usual workplace for meetings, training, or team-building activities at another location: The marketing team has an away day next Thursday.

In British football, an away day is when supporters travel to watch their team play at an opponent's ground.

Both senses share the idea of organized travel away from home base.
