Unique Drinking Games for Festive Parties
The festive season is approaching and as the days grow shorter, the parties tend to get longer and merrier. This year, why not spice up your festive gatherings with some unique drinking games that will keep your guests entertained and engaged? From classic twists to new inventive challenges, these games are sure to bring laughter and joy to your celebrations. And with alcohol delivery services more accessible than ever, organising these games is as easy as clicking a button.
The Name Game
This game is a fantastic icebreaker and very simple to set up. Each guest receives a sticky note on their back with the name of a celebrity, historical figure, or character. The aim is for everyone to figure out the name on their back by asking yes-or-no questions to the others around the room. Each time a player gets a 'no' answer, they must take a sip of their drink. The fun comes from the hilarious questions and the sometimes even more hilarious guesses. This game gets people talking and moving around.
Christmas Movie Drinking Game
A Christmas movie night can be turned into an interactive drinking game that participants of all ages (over the legal drinking age, of course) can enjoy. Choose a few favourite Christmas movies and create a list of recurring themes or actions, such as someone saying ‘Santa’, a visible Christmas tree, or whenever a character drinks something. Each time the action happens, everyone takes a sip. Films like ‘Home Alone’, ‘Elf’, or ‘Love Actually’, are ideal for this game due to their repetitive and predictable, yet beloved, festive tropes.
Twelve Days of Christmas Relay
This game requires a bit of preparation but is well worth the effort for the competitive spirit it brings to the party. Set up twelve stations, each representing a day from the ‘Twelve Days of Christmas’ song, and at each station, a challenge or a type of drink. Participants split into teams and race to complete each day's challenge in order. Challenges can range from a trivia question about Christmas to singing a carol or even wrapping a present. Each challenge completed earns the team a drink, which they must consume before moving on to the next station. The first team to finish or the furthest along when the time runs out wins.
Santa Hat TV Night
This game is laid-back yet constantly amusing. Everyone must keep a Santa hat on the corner of the TV screen. Every time someone on the screen 'wears' the hat perfectly, everyone takes a drink. This game is great for background fun as it doesn't require much attention, but it delivers bursts of laughter throughout the evening. It’s ideal for longer gatherings and can be played with any TV show or film that fits the festive theme.
Secret Santa Sips
This game adds an element of mystery and surprise to the traditional Secret Santa. Instead of just giving gifts, why not turn the exchange into a game? Each gift comes with a mini-bottle of alcohol attached, and upon receiving their gift, the recipient must guess who their Secret Santa was. A correct guess means the Secret Santa drinks, a wrong guess means the recipient drinks. This game is a great way to carry out gift-giving with an added twist that keeps everyone on their toes.
Rudolph’s Red Nose
Rudolph’s Red Nose is a game that involves some dexterity, which can get hilariously challenging as the night goes on. Players take turns trying to stick red circular stickers onto one another’s noses without using their hands, only their noses (using a dab of honey or syrup to make the stickers adhere). Each miss requires a drink, and each successful stick earns the player the right to challenge someone else.
