Funny Games for New Year's corporate party, New Year's Eve

Game for adults. Mafia

Number of participants: from 10 people, you can play with less, but in this case the game quickly ends with the victory of the mafia.

Required Items: Card deck.

Game progress

The task of the game for civilians is to find out all the mafiosi who are hiding among honest people and neutralize them, and for the mafiosi - to kill all the inhabitants and seize the city in their hands. After that, the place of action is chosen, it can be the hometown of the players, the whole island of Sicily - the birthplace of the mafia, Palermo, Syracuse or another Sicilian city. Then each player tells about himself (i.e., invents a story for himself, the so-called legend). One can be a shopkeeper and sell spices and wine, the second chooses to serve in the police, the third is an official, the fourth is unemployed, and so on. After that, you need to divide all the participants into the mafia and honest citizens. To do this, the number of cards is selected from the deck according to the number of participants so that the number of red suits is 2 times the number of black ones, and 1 card is added - the king of hearts.

All selected cards are shuffled and distributed to the participants, the rest do not know which cards got to their neighbors. The host announces that night is falling in the city, all participants in the game close their eyes. Then follows the phrase: "The mafia is waking up." Only members of the mafia open their eyes, they look at each other and accurately remember all “their own”. After that, the leader says: “The mafia is falling asleep”, at this moment all participants in the game should be with their eyes closed. And, finally, with the onset of morning, everyone wakes up (all players open their eyes), after which the host says with a crushing look: “Citizens, a mafia has appeared among us. Be carefull".

Further, all the players, based on their guesses, the words from the legend of the participants, as well as on their facial expressions, gestures, express their assumptions about which of the players is the mafia, and after everyone has spoken, voting begins. Those who scored the most votes are “killed” by the players, after which the eliminated player shows his card, and everyone will find out if they killed an honest citizen or a real mafia.

On all subsequent nights, the mafia wakes up first, it decides which of the participants is the most dangerous to it, and kills him, then the Catani commissioner wakes up, he can once ask the host who, in his opinion, this or that participant, the mafia or an honest citizen. If the mafia manages to figure out the commissioner and kill him, he leaves his assumptions in a note. Any player designated by the Catani Commissioner is killed without a vote.

November 21, 2016

Starting with the first snowflakes slowly circling in the frosty air, we begin to wait for HIM! The most wonderful, most fabulous, incredible and fun holiday is the New Year!

There is no longer a single holiday, three months before which, friends would ask: “Well, what do you think about the New Year?”. Yes, this is exactly the day when the aliens are in a panic from an unknown signal from the Earth - “The new year is rushing towards us, soon everything will happen ..”, and the whole planet glows with bright lights and fireworks! It is from December 31 to January 1 at 23:59 that we all stand with glasses of bubble champagne in our hands and are happy to meet the new year and new emotions that will burst into our lives, and this, by the way, is an excellent reason to throw an unrealistically cool party !

It is impossible to imagine any party without the company of beloved friends. With them, at least International Pancake Day, at least celebrate Bastille Day - always fun and interesting! In order not to interrupt this wonderful tradition, you should thoroughly prepare for organizing the main party of the year!

An important part of the 2017 meeting is the entertainment program: games and competitions for the New Year for adults. They make you get to know each other better, make the team closer, and the evening more interesting, if you know what I mean 😉

website I am sure that almost all adults will take part in pranks with great pleasure, dance in a round dance, make a cool toast and compete in exciting contests! They can be different: playful, smart, dexterous and, of course, with erotic overtones. It all depends on the degree of looseness of the party guests.

We offer 12 fun games and contests to celebrate the New Year, which will make the party fun and memorable.

1. So it's about me!

Small paper bags are taken in which you can put souvenirs, sweets or any small items (batteries, condoms, a glass ...). Nominations are written on the packages:
- the longest-haired;
- the one who kissed the girl before everyone else;
- the one that kissed the guy before everyone else;
- the owner of underwear with the largest number of colors and shades;
- the strongest armwrestler;
- the lady with the highest heel;
- the most thrifty smoker (the one or the one who has the most cigarettes with him);
- the coolest rapper (the fastest to read poetry);
- the bluest eyes of 2017;
- the loudest laughter of 2017;
- the craziest act of 2016;
- the most unlucky (the one who did not get any of the holiday packages).

You can come up with your own nominations - the most suitable for your friends and family.

Ready-made packages with contents need to be hung on a Christmas tree. This can be done before the guests arrive, but then they will be discovered too early, most likely even before everyone has gathered. Therefore, it is best to do this right after midnight, when everyone goes to look at the balcony or outside to watch the New Year's fireworks. At this point, hang the packages on the tree. Than not original gifts for all those present.

The guests returning from the fireworks will notice the new Christmas tree decorations and start the competition…

2. What do you remember about the outgoing year?

Buy whatman paper in size A1 or A0. At the top, write in large letters “What do you remember about 2016”. To make the inscription look even and beautiful, print it on a printer using the New Year's font you like. You can stick photos of guests on whatman paper (for couples - use joint pictures). There should be space between photographs for drawings. It is even better if you order such a poster in a printing house.

Hang the poster on the wall or closet. Let everyone draw next to his photo the best event for him of the outgoing year. Someone will depict a palm tree, symbolizing a vacation in warm countries, someone will have a new car, and for someone it will be a child with a briefcase walking confidently to school for the first time.

You can make such collections of positive memories a tradition of your friendly company.

3. Coolest of all

We choose the main characters of the evening - Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. Those who wish to change into costumes, take thematic attributes: a beard, mittens, a staff, a bag with gifts, and introduce themselves to the public in turn. The most cheerful, charismatic and irresistible guy or girl will become Santa Claus. The choice is made by applause voting. Not only girls, but also brave guys can take part in the casting for the role of the Snow Maiden! A little powder, red lipstick and a wig with pigtails will turn a serious top manager into a sweet granddaughter of Santa Claus. A short fashion show in a skirt will determine who will become the queen of the party, even if she is with bristles.

4. Alphabet

Further, to warm up the guests of the party, it will be correct to hold a competition for the best toast in alphabetical order. The bottom line is this - everyone in turn says a toast with wishes, but not just like that, but it should begin with a specific letter. For example, the first with “A” - “The sweetest orange, the tastiest tangerine, good Santa Claus will bring you as a gift”, then to “B” - “Great hopes, beautiful dreams, rays of goodness, and a cute beaver! Congratulations on the New Year!”, “B” - “Santa Claus comes to the house, he brought us gifts: a soft bear, a delicious cake, a telephone and a moon rover, pasta, an orange, soap, a gingerbread and a dolphin.”

In such a cheerful manner, everyone makes their toasts, the author of the most original rhyme receives a prize.

An easier option - a wish consists of one or two words per dropped letter. For example: wish A active rest, b wealth, V ezania, G lamura, d money…

Especially lucky for those who get the letters Y, Y, b, b 🙂

5. Hello, sleepwalkers

Such a competition is best held when all the guests are already in a cheerful mood. One participant is seated on a chair, and now he plays the role of the main lunar base, others will depict moon rovers and asteroids flying by. To do this, you need to crawl on all fours around the room, saying: “Reception, Lunokhod-1 is calling the base”, “Lunokhod-2, we need refueling at the lunar base, the battery has run out.”

An asteroid periodically flies between spaceships at speed, and with the words “Banzai” tries to get into the lunar rover. There is only one rule in this game - do not laugh! At all! The one who gets a laugh in his mouth crawls to the base to receive a task.

It might look like this:

• remove two layers of skin from your lunokhod;
• pour 200 ml of fuel into Lunokhod 1;
• solder 3 new skin parts on Lunokhod-2;
• dock with Lunokhod-3;
• explore the environment in reverse mode, etc.

Whoever never laughs wins. Great mood guaranteed for everyone!

6. New Year's sculptor

Props for two sculptures:
— round balloons of various colors, 100 pieces;
- balloons round with a pattern of a face (smiley), 2-4 pieces;
- balloons for modeling (those from which clowns make dogs), pieces 50;
- double-sided tape, 2 pieces;
- threads, 2 spools;
- multi-colored markers.

We divide into two teams and start creating a festive sculpture. The choice of image is at the discretion of the organizer: Santa Claus, Snow Maiden, rooster (symbol of 2017), monkey (symbol of 2016), snowman or any other interesting character.

7. Pass it on

The good old match game will help the audience get to know each other better and loosen up a little. All guests stand in a circle, alternating - a guy, a girl. The match is cleaned of sulfur, the first participant takes it with his lips and passes it to the next. After the first round, the match is cut off by a few mm, and it goes to a new circle. The game ends when the participants have nothing to transfer, well, or at will.

8. News

Participants receive leaflets on which five words are written. According to them, in five minutes they must compose interesting news. Words from the card can be turned into any part of speech, for example:

• England, Chinese, axe, genetics, Malvina (English geneticists crossed the Chinese with an axe. But he refused to chop wood, but he cut out a wooden Malvina for Pinocchio - let the kid have fun until the knot is dry);
• Tula, flashlight, minibus, roofing material, camel;
• Zimbabwe, pan, sun, skis, toothbrush;
• Antarctica, soap, ostrich, bicycle, ear.

9. Associations

One person whispers a certain word into the ear of the next person, he passes a synonym or a word close in meaning to this word to his neighbor, and so on until the end. The last participant says the word aloud, and it is compared with the first, often at the end completely unrelated words are found, such as sea and olivier.

10. Slow motion

Everyone can take part in this game. In turn, each participant is given a task, which he must depict in slow motion:

• capture of Sparta;
• tearful declaration of love;
• fight with the invisible;
• escape from the tiger;
• pitching a tent;
• surfing, etc.

Whoever completes the task most creatively will receive a prize.

11. Alligator

Everyone likes the game of all times and peoples "Crocodile", regardless of age, preferences and other factors. But this is a festive crocodile, so let's call it "Alligator" today. The essence of this does not change: to show a phenomenon or object, without the help of words or sounds. Since the topic is known, it will be necessary to show tangerines, deer, Christmas decorations, firecrackers, garlands, etc.

12. Whose Santa Claus?

For some reason, everyone believes that Santa Claus comes from Lapland. The poor fellow annually in one night flies around all the children on the planet, delivers gifts to all the obedient, and magic pendals to the naughty. But is it?

Have you already thought of your loved ones? Read on for tips and ideas for Christmas gifts in the Year of the Pig.

Traditional entertainment for a fun company

On this New Year's Eve, it is worth transporting yourself to the world of childhood. It is necessary to arrange as many different competitions and games as possible, with the presentation of the most original gifts. This year, an unusual gift made by yourself is welcomed.

New Year costume

You can arrange a competition for the best New Year's costume, made in an hour. All the things that are at hand are used, colored paper, various accessories. This evening there is an opportunity to show all your creative possibilities, fantasies.

guess the word

Any of those present starts the game. He thinks of anything: an animal, a bird, a phenomenon, a vehicle, any character to his neighbor. And the task of the neighbor is to show those present the hidden word with gestures, facial expressions. It is allowed to nod yes or no to the answers given. The guessing person is guessed a word.

Table games for adults

If all of the above is great for general family leisure, then below are examples of fun for adults. These small games can be used both on their own and as a warm-up for any other competition.

1. "TV"- words are written on several pieces of paper, for example, “new”, “happiness”, “song”, and lowered into a hat. The driver takes out one of the words at random, and then all the players need to drink a glass as soon as the specified word is heard on TV. Missed - drink the penalty.
2. "Long story"- the driver begins some fictional story by saying two words. For example, "Once upon a time." The next participant at the table must continue the sentence with one word. The one who loses drinks - he could not continue the story with a word. Important - the whole story should fit in one sentence!
3. "Mega Battle"- a good game for large and not very familiar companies. The driver asks everyone a rather absurd question, for example, “which is tastier, fried bugs or spiders?”, After which it is proposed to decide the issue by voting. The point of view, for which more participants spontaneously voted, wins, while the losers drink.
4. "Pick up a bottle"- a very famous fun contest. An empty bottle is placed, preferably with a fairly wide neck, for example, from champagne, and a pen is tied to the participant's belt (on a thread or rope). To avoid a penalty, the player is supposed to hit the bottle with his pen without the help of hands in three minutes.

New entertainment for New Year's Eve

New Year is an occasion to get together with friends, have fun and play even for very adult people. A fun corporate party, a small company or a vacation with children - everywhere a fun game will come in handy. And, since the usual desktop "walkers" and traditional feasts are already a little tired, we present to your attention an overview of new entertainment!

Fanta in a new way

An old game that, nevertheless, can be diversified. You should write down several phrases-wishes in advance on different pieces of paper, which then the participants will take turns pulling out of the props you found at home. Everything will fit: a hat, a box, balloons (each with a note), and even a glass. Those who complete the task can receive a small prize-gift.

The game is famous, first of all, for being suitable for any company, as well as for its success, which directly depends on the author's sense of humor. For example, the indispensable success is enjoyed by:

• Group dances (with a choice of any desired participants from around the table) - a waltz, tango or ballet in a group performance of three, five or more people will fit perfectly.
• Come up with five rhymes for a compound word (for example, “button accordion”), or come up with a rhyme from ready-made rhymes (“complex” - “cakes”, “sausage sails”). The more unexpected the couple will be, the funnier the verse will turn out in the end.
• Name five films, replacing one of the words with the one that is written in the fanta (for example, “Girl with a Sausage Tattoo” or “Sausage Identification”).

The more unexpected the tasks are, the more fun the games will be. If alcohol and a feast are planned, it is better to choose a moment after a small libation, so that it is played with great enthusiasm. And, to give a New Year's mood, choose the following type of forfeits - where the turn to “drive” falls to the participant on whom the burning sparkler goes out.

If there are only two of you, and you have a romantic evening, then this is also a great reason to play New Year's forfeits, coming up with more incendiary and sharper ideas.

And also for a holiday party.

Homemade quests for the New Year's company

A fascinating and unusual solution to give all your friends New Year's surprises, hidden in secluded places in advance. The lack of space can be compensated by using your own imagination and connecting complications in the form of small tasks.

1. It is best to start with the task itself, so that everyone has time to join the game. Place the first pointer to the next clue in a prominent place, hide the second in a more unusual way (for example, by gluing it under a chair or bed).
2. Interactive assignments are best left in the middle of the quest. Let the participants do something funny enough, but not very difficult: for example, they will get rolled up from cotton wool or real (if you are celebrating in the country) snowballs into a bucket, make a Christmas tree from improvised materials, portray Santa Claus or sing a New Year's song.
3. The gift itself should be properly packaged, and if you're doing a themed quest, it's best if it also has a theme.

This pastime is great for both adults and children, who can participate in the “race” along with them. It is also entertainment for a couple who want a romantic, but original leisure.

Fairy tales: cool entertainment for the company for the New Year 2019

Despite the fact that this game is more suitable for children, adults who are pretty slacken by the table usually also perceive this game very favorably. Because - well, very funny!

To prepare, you will need to take any text of a famous fairy tale, for example, the following are perfect:

• "Kolobok";
• "Turnip";
• "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs";
• "The Tale of the Sleeping Princess"

The larger the company, the longer the fairy tale should be. In addition, you will have to work on its text: shorten it and add more space for adjectives. For example, "there was a (what?) princess".

It is played very simply - the number of required adjectives is counted, and then their number is divided equally among all participants. After writing the adjectives on a piece of paper, they are mixed up, and the driver, taking out pieces of paper in turn, begins his hilarious story. Success depends directly on the degree of absurdity of the chosen adjectives, as well as the charisma of the driver.

Movable funny contests for the New Year's party

If the guests are sitting at the table, it's time to stir them up with a few tasks. Prizes are optional, participants will recklessly participate anyway.

"He who wears a hat does not dance"- everyone dances, except for the participant in a hat (option - in a dressing gown, belt). He has no right to take part in the general fun until he throws (puts on) his accessory on any victim from the dance floor. That, in turn, she will look for a new "water".

"All the way around"- the players repeat the movements, but at the same time changing their meaning to a diametrically opposite one. For example, if the driver crouches, you need to jump; if he waves, keep your hands at your sides, etc. Who made a mistake - becomes "water".

"Repeat the move"- here you have to, on the contrary, repeat the movements. But on the other hand, the game involves a task for accuracy. The correctness of the execution of the movement is determined by the competent jury in the form of other guests.

Any games can become more interesting not only with prizes, but also with the addition of a driving costume - for example, a red Santa Claus cap, a tinsel scarf or a mask. Tasks should take into account the age and proximity of the company - avoid excessive vulgarity or complexity if you are not sure of success. Well, do not forget to stop to drink a traditional glass of champagne under the chimes and refresh yourself.

The holiday is best celebrated in a friendly, positive company, in the circle of the closest and dearest people. We decided on games and contests, there will be something to entertain and keep the company busy, let's take a look at how to decorate the house, what to wear. And what to cook for the holiday feast.

How to decorate a house for the New Year 2019

Observing the behavior of the Pig, it is better to decorate the Christmas tree and the room with accessories made by yourself. In the design, use bright colors - red, orange, yellow. From colored paper, you can create beautiful New Year's patterns to decorate the door, garlands that we collected in childhood, made from paper ribbons, are suitable.

The Christmas tree can be decorated with toys made of cones in the form of various animals, fruits, treated with a special varnish. Didn't buy a tree? It can be made independently from various materials: cardboard pasted over with rain, wire, wood. For children, taking part in the preparation of a big holiday will be a great pleasure and a good motivation to do good deeds.

What to wear?

The choice of clothing should be taken carefully. Women are advised to pay attention to the light and unusual cut of the dress, trouser suit. It is important that rich colors are present. Make your hairstyle unusual, and it will only emphasize your holiday outfit. Of the accessories, natural metals and stones are welcome.

Men should also look smart and bright. It is enough to put on a catchy tie, an elegant red hat or bandana, pin an orange bow to the shirt. Extravagant costumes are welcome this year. Let your image remain a vivid memory this New Year's Eve.

What to cook for the New Year of the Pig

There should be a large selection of different fruits on the table (bananas, apples, kiwi, grapes, oranges, tangerines, pineapple).

• It is better to use fish and seafood dishes. For meat lovers, cooked poultry and beef dishes are acceptable.
• The pig has a sweet tooth, therefore: cake, pie, cookies, sweets, various fruit desserts should be placed on the table.
• Any dish can be decorated with a figurine of a pig made of halves of olives, for example.

Task: to portray the leader's story with facial expressions and gestures. Actions must be done simultaneously by all team members.

“Every New Year, Santa Claus knocks to visit us with a whole bag of gifts. He gave dad (hat, comb, glasses). Let everyone show with their right hand how dad is (combing his hair, putting on a hat, trying on glasses). He gave his son (skates, skis, roller skates). Show how the son goes on (skiing, skating, rollerblading), but do not stop combing his hair. (Next, each new gift is a new movement added to the previous one.) He gave his mother a meat grinder - rotate it with your left hand. He brought his daughter as a gift (a bear, a doll, a dog), which claps her eyelashes and says “mom” (“woof”, “meow”), And he gave his grandmother a Chinese doodle who shakes his head.
