How to have fun at a corporate party. Funny contests for colleagues for the New Year

New Year 2020 is approaching, when most enterprises hold corporate parties. As a rule, they are remembered not by how much was eaten and drunk at a gala dinner, but by what contests and games were held here. Such competitions, which diversify the program of the holiday, allow almost all employees of the company to prove themselves.

Guests will especially like contests with jokes for corporate parties for the New Year. Some competitions are of a gaming nature, others are arranged for ingenuity, and others for dexterity and speed.

When choosing participants in such competitions, try not to ignore any of those present. Don't forget to organize photography of fun competitions, and then your colleagues will remember the holiday for a long time.

Contests with jokes for a corporate party for 2020 New Year

Each participant in the table competition for the New Year's corporate party will have to say a toast that begins with a certain letter, for example:

  • Z - "Health to all those present in the New Year, to gather in 12 months at more than one corporate party!";
  • E - “If we don’t eat, then at least we’ll drink properly! Let's raise our glasses to that!"
  • and so on.

The winner will be the one who, according to the guests, will make the most cheerful or original toast.

Another New Year's competition at a corporate holiday will allow your colleagues to get to know each other better. Ask each person to say two true and one false statements about themselves. Let the company figure out what is true and what is fiction.

To participate in the next cool competition at a corporate party for the New Year, volunteers are given task cards.

Participants will have to walk in front of the tables as: a gorilla in a cage, a stork in a swamp, a chicken in the yard, a sparrow on the roof, a baby who has just learned to walk, a girl in a tight skirt with high heels, a woman with heavy bags, a sentry guarding a food warehouse, a guy in front of a stranger.

The task of the participants of the New Year's contest for the corporate party "Dress up the Christmas tree" is to do it blindfolded. They are taken to different ends of the room, blindfolded and untwisted. Whoever hangs the toy faster will be the winner. The rest of the guests can help the players with advice or, on the contrary, distract them.

The next competition is called "Funny Drawings". On a large sheet of cardboard, make holes for the hands. Participants of the competition will need to draw a Snow Maiden or Santa Claus with a brush, putting their hands through the holes. The winner will be the author of the most successful portrait.

New Year contests for corporate parties

At New Year's corporate parties, a competition is also a success, in which empty bottles are placed close to each other along with bottles of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks on the floor. Participants must throw a ring on the bottle from a distance of three meters. The number of throws per player must be limited. Drink bottles will be available as prizes.

"Long arms competition" is attended by several people who perform the task in turn. Competitors must place glasses with a drink on the floor at their feet and step as far as possible. And then take out your glass without changing the position of the feet and without touching the floor with your hands and knees.

Two people are participating in the next competition at a corporate party on the occasion of the upcoming New Year 2020. In the middle of the hall, two chairs are placed with their backs to each other. A lot of different things of a large size are placed nearby, for example, they can be soft or plastic toys.

The task of the participants is to collect things and put them on their chair. Whoever collects the most items is the winner.

Participants of another New Year's competition for a corporate party need to be extremely careful. An object is placed on a stool next to them. When the facilitator says "Five", they must take this thing. But the host can list different numbers: “One, two, three, four, five .... ten”; "one, two, three, four, five .... hundred." The one who is more attentive and takes the item first will win.

Another competition at the New Year's corporate holiday is called "Snow is spinning." To carry it out, you will need small pieces of cotton wool or paper “snowflakes”. They need to be distributed to everyone who wishes to participate in the competition.

This competition is good to hold at the beginning of the holiday. The team is divided into two teams. The host makes interesting and comic riddles. One correct answer - one step to the table. The distance for the location of the teams is selected depending on the number of participants. Approximate riddles for the competition may be as follows:
- what can be seen when a woman lifts her leg, the word is of 5 letters, starts with “p”, and ends with “a” (heel);
- a hairy head deftly fits on the cheek (toothbrush);
Who doesn't get their hair wet in the rain? (bald);
Why do goats have sad eyes? (because the husband is a goat);
- in one place he takes, and in another - he gives (ATM) and so on.

President's New Year's greetings

Each of the guests for a moment becomes the president of the country and each of them gets his 5 words for phantoms, which he must organically insert into his New Year's greetings. Words must be unusual to make congratulations funny, for example, crane, duck, Chinese, bananas, worm; airship, Turks, mole, broth, radish; goose, glass, peas, Kirkorov, teeth and so on. For the most cheerful and foldable congratulations, the president will receive a prize.

Everybody dance

Everyone who wants to participate. The presenter puts on a cheerful and moving song, or vice versa - slow and smooth. Participants will need to dance, but not just dance, but only with a certain part of the body. To do this, everyone chooses a card on which a specific part of the body will be written. For example, fingers, head, legs, buttocks, stomach and so on. As soon as the music begins to sound in the hall, the participants join the dance with their indicated part of the body. The most eccentric and artistic is awarded a prize.

Let's remember childhood

The chief or leader in this competition acts as Santa Claus, to whom the children - all employees in turn will tell their rhyme. Only now you need to come up with a poem yourself and do it in such a way that you get funny lines with a request to your boss, for example ^
Good Santa Claus - cotton beard,
Give us a salary increase in the new year.
Or like this:
Santa Claus, red nose,
Let's not work hard.
And so on. Which of the employees will prove to be the best and whose verse will be recognized as the best, Santa Claus promises to fulfill the desire of that.

Film, film, film

Guests are divided into teams with the same number of people and in 5 minutes of preparation each team must show their miniature from the Soviet film about the New Year, for example, "The Irony of Fate", "Magicians", "Gentlemen of Fortune", "Carnival Night" and so on . For the best performance, the team will receive a bottle of champagne or a kilo of tangerine.

Zodiac

Each of the participants is invited to pull out one card, on which the name of one of the signs of the horoscope will be written, i.e. Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces. The task of each will be to show with the help of gestures and facial expressions what kind of sign he got, the rest guess.

Ski meeting

The game can be played both for teams and for individual participants. The guests are late for an important meeting, but the roads, as luck would have it, are covered with snow. Therefore, you need to get on skis. Each participant receives two album sheets and two sticks. On the “start” command, the participants get on skis (on two landscape sheets: with one foot on one sheet, and the second on the other) and begin to move towards the goal in such a way that the sheets from under their feet do not disappear. The participant who arrives at the meeting the fastest will win.

Draw a New Year's boss

For the competition you will need a large paper (a piece of wallpaper) and a marker. Each of the participants in turn takes out their phantom, which indicates the specific detail of the boss that they must draw, such as the left eye, right arm, left ear, nose, shoulders, hat, suit, and so on. And each participant, in turn, with his eyes closed, goes to the paper and draws what he got, only the chef should be “New Year's”, that is, if the costume is drawing a Santa Claus costume, who will draw the face or chin must also draw Santa's beard Frost. Each employee must show not only his intuition and correctly position the parts of the body, but also complete the drawing with New Year's details: you can draw a sleigh, bells, a bag with gifts, and so on. A Picasso-style painting should please the boss.

Get rid of your significant other

Friends, anything happens at a corporate party and therefore it is better to think over various excuses for your soulmate in advance. Each of the participants takes out his phantom, which indicates a specific situation for which the participant must come up with the most fun excuse. For example, you have three lipstick marks on your shirt; you came home in men's shoes; you have a napkin in your pocket with a phone number and Natalie's name; you have a man's tie in your purse and so on. There is a prize for the funniest and most interesting excuse.

Santa Claus Corporation

Each participant gets a job for a few minutes in the corporation of Santa Claus, where gifts are wrapped. Each guest is given matchboxes, A4 sheets and a roll of adhesive tape. On the “start” command, the participants begin to pack gifts (wrap matchboxes in paper, as they wrap cabbage rolls and glue a strip of adhesive tape at the junction so that the gift does not unfold. The participant who can pack more gifts in a minute than the rest is recognized as the best helper of Santa Claus and an active employee of his corporation.

The upcoming 2019 is the year of the pig, so it’s better to prepare “mobile” and funny contests for corporate events. In such competitions, as a rule, several persons participate. The purpose of the competition is to cheer up among those present, highlight the most outstanding employee of the office. For the new year, you can prepare competitions, both qualifying, one-stage, and multi-stage.

What competitions are best held at a corporate party?

At the office New Year's party, it is better to hold contests in which most of those present will participate.

"Lunokhod"

The best outdoor game for adults and not sober people. Everyone stands in a circle, according to the counting rhyme the first one is selected and inside the circle he squats and seriously says: “I am Lunokhod 1”. Whoever laughed next - squats in a circle and walks, seriously saying: "I am Lunokhod 2." And so on…

"Who's Longer"

Two teams are formed and each must lay out a chain of clothes, taking off everything they please. Whoever has the longer chain, that team won. If the game is not held in the office, but in the club, first two participants are selected, and when they don’t have enough clothes for the chain, the audience is invited to help the participants, and anyone who wants to can continue the chain of the player they like.

"Who is cooler"

The game is played by men. Eggs are placed on the plate according to the number of participants. The host announces that the players must take turns breaking one egg on their foreheads, but one of them is raw, the rest are boiled, although in fact all the eggs are boiled. The tension builds with each successive egg. Preferably no more than five participants

"Who is superfluous"

Participants sit in a circle, the leader announces that they are in a balloon that is crashing. To avoid it, you need to throw one player off the ball. Participants begin to argue in turn, based on their profession and skills, why it should be left, after which a vote takes place. The one who is thrown off needs to drink a glass of vodka or cognac in one gulp.

"I blinded you from what was"

Each "Snow Maiden" chooses a "Santa Claus" for herself, and dresses him up in all possible ways using any means at hand: from Christmas tree decorations to cosmetics. Your Santa Claus must be presented to the public with the help of advertising, songs, proverbs, poems, etc.

"Sector Prize"

The box containing the prize is being prepared. Only one player is selected, who is invited to choose: a prize or N amount of money. And then it starts like on the TV program “Field of Miracles”, guests sitting nearby, friends, relatives and shouting “... a prize”, and the presenter offers to take the money. The leader's task is to keep the intrigue. Player selection can be done in different ways.

Contests for adults

hit the target

Items needed for the competition: empty bottles, rope (for each participant about 1 meter long) and pencil pens. A pencil or pen is tied at one end of the rope, and the other end of the rope is tucked into the belt. An empty bottle is placed on the floor in front of each participant. The goal is to hit the pen in the bottle.

"New Year's Turnip"

The number of participants is according to the number of characters in this famous fairy tale plus 1 presenter. The newly-minted actors need to remember their role: Turnip - alternately beats his knees with his palms, claps his hands, at the same time says: “Both-on!” Grandfather - rubs his hands: "Take-sir." Grandmother - threatens grandfather with her fist, says: "I would have killed!" Granddaughter - twitches her shoulders, says "I'm ready." The bug - scratches behind the ear, says: "Fleas tortured." Cat - shakes her hips "And I'm on my own." Mouse - shakes his head "Finished!" The host reads the classic text “Turnip”, and the heroes, having heard a mention of themselves, play their role: “Grandfather (“Tek-s”) planted a Turnip (“Oba-on”). Turnip has grown (“Oba-on!”) ​​Big-very big ... ”etc.

"The Forest Raised a Christmas Tree"

The roles are distributed by the participants of the corporate party and a song is already played to the music. It looks funny when adults get used to a children's song.

"Phrases-congratulations"

The host reminds that New Year's Eve is in full swing, and some can hardly remember the last letter of the alphabet. Guests are invited to fill their glasses and make a New Year's toast, but with one condition. Each person present begins the congratulation phrase with the letter A, and then alphabetically. For example: A - Absolutely happy to drink for the New Year! B - Be vigilant, the New Year is coming soon! B - Let's drink to the ladies! The winner is the one who came up with the funniest phrase.

Competitions for small companies

If a New Year's corporate party is held in an office that employs up to 30 people, then the following competitions can be held:

"Pass the parcel"

Necessary : prepare the package - take a piece of candy or a small toy and wrap it in many pieces of paper or newspaper. Everyone sits around the table and the host says: “We received the package, but I don’t know who it is for. Let's find out! The guests begin to pass the package to each other in a circle, unfolding one piece of paper. Whoever unfolds the last one gets the package.

"Stick your nose"

Necessary: ​​draw a funny face (without a nose) on a large piece of paper, separately mold a nose from plasticine. Attach the sheet to the wall. Players move back a few steps. Blindfold them in turn, approach the portrait and try to stick their nose in place. The one who sticks the nose more accurately wins.

Required: bottle caps. You need to blow on bottle caps so that they fly off as far as possible. Winner: the one whose cork flew the farthest.

"Real Santa Claus"

You will need: Lots of small unbreakable items: soft toys, books, boxes, etc. All items are stacked near the leader, the rest of the players depict Santa Clauses, among which we have to choose the real one. The facilitator takes turns handing out to the “grandfathers” one subject at a time. The player who did not hold and dropped any gift leaves the game. The one who turns out to be the most dexterous and does not drop anything is declared "the real Santa Claus" and receives a prize.

"Pioneers"

Necessary : Lots of balloons and markers. Each player receives a balloon and a marker. The host invites the players to "discover" a new planet. To do this, in a certain time you need to inflate your balloon and draw as many "residents" as possible on it. Whoever had more inhabitants after the expiration of time - he won.

"Ice cream"

The Snow Maiden's favorite delicacy is ice cream, so a competition for the name of the ice cream is announced. Everyone takes turns calling the types of ice cream, and whoever thinks for more than five seconds loses.

"That was my ball!!!"

Necessary : 2 balloons. The competition requires 2 participants. They are given one inflatable New Year's ball, which the presenter ties to the left leg of each participant. At the command of the leader, the participants try to crush the opponent's ball with their right foot. It is recommended to play in indoor shoes or sneakers (participants in tarpaulin boots or stilettos are not allowed to the competition). Winner: the one who quickly "pops" the opponent's ball with his foot.

"Christmas tree"

Required for the game : stool or chair - 1 piece, girl - 1 piece, clothespins. They are fastened on the girl's dress, the girl is put on a stool, 2 young men are selected from the company, who remove clothespins from her blindfolded. The one who removes the last clothespin, or the one who has more clothespins, removes the girl from the chair and kisses her as many times as he has clothespins. The game can be played in reverse, i.e. a guy stands on a stool.

"New Year's Song"

Necessary : hat and leaflets with words. The hat contains small pieces of paper on which is written a word associated with winter and the New Year. Each participant in turn takes out notes from a hat and sings a song - always New Year's or winter, in which there is a word written on his leaf!

"Dictionary tree"

In turn, they name the words in which the word FIR “grows”.
The main condition: words must be nouns in the nominative case. A participant who cannot say a word is out of the game.
Examples of "dictionary firs": Caramel, flute, snowstorm, potatoes, housewarming, Monday, etc.

"New Year's Erudite"

Guests at the table are divided into 2 teams. They are invited to take turns naming the names of feature films in which the main action takes place in winter or on New Year's Eve. Everyone takes turns calling. Winner: the one who most recently said the title of the movie.

"Wishes"

Each of the guests is given three pieces of paper, and in three versions he finishes the phrase - "next year I will definitely ...". The papers are folded into a hat, mixed and the hat starts in a circle. Each guest pulls out a piece of paper from the hat and reads the text aloud.

The napkin is torn into several pieces. On each piece we write the name of the prize. Between the opponents on the table we put a piece of napkin with the inscription down. At the command "Start!" opponents must pull the napkin towards themselves with the help of a cocktail tube. The second version of the game - a comic task is written on a napkin. In this case, the loser must complete the task.

Have you already started preparing contests for the new year 2020? Yesterday I decided to look for various games and contests for the new year, and I found many interesting ones that will help us enter the Year of the Rat with fun and joy.

How to prepare for competitions and games: fun and interesting competitions for the new year will help save even traditional New Year's family gatherings in the company with a TV, not to mention a party for a fun company. However, it is best to prepare a little.

  1. Make a plan for games and competitions. A company of adults will need to eat, raise glasses for the new year, and dance, so the game program should be carefully woven into the natural course of the party.
  2. Prepare props. Having decided what you will play for the new year at home, make a list of what you will need for a particular competition. It is best to arrange the props and prizes into thematic contests (I use small gift bags for this).
  3. Stock up on prizes. People are very fond of receiving small funny prizes - sweets, chocolates, cute New Year's toys. It is better to take prizes with a margin.
  4. Supporting materials are best done on cards - if you need to stock up on some phrases, scripts and texts, then write or print them in advance on ordinary cards, this is much more convenient than using one large script.
  5. Pick up music, identify your assistants, prepare a place for games.

Collection of contests and games

"Wishes"

The simplest New Year's games and all sorts of contests are those where guests do not need to do anything - for example, they can be invited to burst balloons, inside of which there will be wishes.

It is necessary to prepare in advance a large bunch of balloons (their number should be more than the number of guests, just in case), inside which notes with wishes are inserted. For example, you can give a guest scissors and offer to cut off the balloon they like, and then read aloud to all the guests - such a simple but cute entertainment helps the company to have fun and unite.

"Numbers"

New Year's games and competitions built on the "question and answer" model always gather a lot of applause. It is not surprising - everyone loves to laugh, but there are no difficulties.

So, the facilitator distributes small pieces of paper and pens to the guests, and offers to write down their favorite number (or any other number that comes to mind). If desired, you can write down some sequence, and play a few circles. When all the guests have completed the task, the host says that now all those present will be able to learn more about each other - he will ask questions, and the guests will answer them, raising a piece of paper with written numbers and loudly announcing the answer.

It is best to choose simple questions - how old is this or that guest, how many times a day he eats, how much he weighs, how many times he stayed for the second year, and so on.

"Not a Word of Truth"

My favorite amusements are funny contests for the new year. Of course, for a company of pensioners, you will need to pick up something more decent, but you can always have fun in your circle - for example, by playing the game "Not a word of truth."


The host will need to prepare in advance a lot of New Year's questions such as:

  • What tree is traditionally dressed up for the holiday?
  • what movie in our country symbolizes the new year?
  • What is customary to launch into the sky on New Year's Eve?
  • who is molded from snow in winter?
  • who on TV addresses the Russians with a New Year's speech?
  • the outgoing year is the year of whom according to the Chinese calendar?

It is better to write down more questions, you can ask about the New Year traditions of different countries, or the habits of guests. During the game, the host will have to quickly and cheerfully ask his questions, and the guests will answer without telling a word of the truth.

The one who makes mistakes and answers truthfully, according to the results of the game, can read poetry, sing a song or fulfill various desires - you can use desires to play forfeits, for example, the loser needs to put a few tangerine slices on both cheeks, and say something like “I’m a hamster and I eat grain, don’t touch it - it’s mine, and whoever takes it is the end!”. Explosions of laughter are provided - both during the game and during the "punishment" of the losing participant.

"Accurate shooter"

As an entertainment for the new year 2020, you can play snipers. It is most fun to play this game when the participants are already a little tipsy - and coordination becomes more free, and there is less constraint, and it is already a little more difficult to hit the target.


The essence of the game is as follows - the guests are divided into two teams, and in turn, each player throws "snowballs" into the bucket. A bucket from the players is set at a distance of five to seven meters, as "snowballs" you can use cotton balls, crumpled paper, or just take a couple of sets of simple plastic Christmas balls that are sold in any supermarket.

I decided to improve this game for a 2020 new year party for adults and use children's basketball hoops as a "target" - hitting them with a soft ball of cotton is even more difficult than hitting a bucket.

"New Year decoration"

Of course, New Year's competitions for adults can be less sporty.


All those present must be divided into teams of 5-6 people (depending on the number of guests at your party). The teams are tasked with building a New Year's ball. For manufacturing, you can use only toilet items, accessories and decorations that are on the team members. The team that makes the brightest and most beautiful ball wins.

By the way, a little hack- in every company there are people who do not actively participate in competitions and just try to sit out, which is why quite a lot of time is spent on persuasion. So, appoint them to the jury - you can make them score cards in advance, offer them to make a short speech into an impromptu microphone. So they will simultaneously be involved in the general fun, and at the same time they will not have to be persuaded and pulled out from the table.

And of course, the sight of her own mother, who speaks heartfeltly into a glass of champagne instead of a microphone about how grateful she is to Mikhalkov and the film academy for the opportunity to see the battle on the ice in her own living room is priceless. :))

"Come, forest deer"

By the way, if you are choosing competitions for a corporate party for the New Year or for a party that will not take place in a city apartment, then be sure to play Santa with his deer. Here you do not need to divide the guests into teams, just invite them to break into pairs.


Each pair has a "reindeer" and "Santa" (you can give one improvised antlers, and the other Santa hats - both are sold for mere pennies in a fixed price store before the new year).

The "deer" needs to be blindfolded and make a harness - do not be wiser, a simple linen rope or lace that wraps around the belt will do. The reins are given to Santa, who stands behind his "deer". A route is built from the skittles, the leader gives a signal and the competition begins. The winners are those participants who came to the finish line earlier than others and did not knock down the pins. Instead of pins, you can use empty bottles, cardboard cups for drinks or paper cones (we made them in the form of Christmas trees, it was very cute).

"Collective letter"

When it comes to New Year's games at the table, I always remember how my parents and friends wrote a collective New Year's greeting for everyone present every new year. You can use a ready-made text (as in the image), you can compose your own - the main thing is that it should not contain adjectives - guests should call them.

The host invites the guests to congratulate each other and say a big and beautiful toast - and waves a postcard on which he has already written down the congratulation. Only now he did not have enough adjectives, and the guests should suggest them. Everyone randomly offers adjectives related to winter, new year and holiday, and the host writes them down and then reads out the result - the text is very funny!

"Turnip: New Year's Version"

Love New Year's contests for the whole family - then a turnip is what you need!


So, you need to prepare the participants - they need the number of characters in the fairy tale. Each participant gets a role in an impromptu performance. It's simple, the participant needs to remember the key phrase and the movement that he must act out when mentioning himself.

  1. The turnip will slap its knees and then clap its hands with the exclamation "Oba-na!".
  2. Grandfather rubs his palms and groans “Ta-ak-s!”.
  3. Grandmother swings her fist at grandfather and says “I would have beaten it!”.
  4. Dancing granddaughter sings "I'm ready!" in a high voice (when men play this role, it turns out just great).
  5. The bug itches and complains of fleas.
  6. The cat wags its “tail” and tentatively draws out “And I am on my own.”
  7. The mouse sadly shrugs its shoulders and says "We've finished the game!".

After everyone has tried themselves in a new role, the host reads the text of the fairy tale (no changes here), and the actors play their role whenever they hear about themselves. The grandfather planted (rubs his hands and groans) a turnip (clap-clap, both-on!) And further in the text. Believe me, there will be enough bursts of laughter, especially when the fairy tale comes to an end, and the host will list all the participants in turn.

"Strictly alphabetical"

In one of the pauses, the host takes the floor and reminds everyone present that the New Year celebration is just beginning, but it’s already difficult to remember the alphabet. In this connection, the presenter suggests filling the glasses and raising them, but strictly in alphabetical order.


Each guest must say a short toast to his own letter of the alphabet. The first one starts with the letter a, the second must start with the letter b, and so on. Toasts should be simple:

  1. A Absolutely must drink to happiness in the new year!
  2. B let's be healthy in the new year!
  3. IN let's drink to the old year!
  4. E If we don't get drunk, we'll have to eat!

The task for all those present is to make toasts for each letter of the alphabet, and then choose the winner - the one who came up with the best toast, which is worth drinking for!

"Bunnies"

If you want to pick up outdoor games for the new year 2020, play bunny. It is best to play this game at home on New Year's Eve when there are many guests - it is suitable for a group of friends.


Everyone stands in a circle and holds hands, the leader walks around all the players in a circle and whispers to each the names of two animals - a wolf and a bunny, a fox and a bunny, and so on. Then he explains the essence of the game - when the leader pronounces the name of the animal aloud, the person to whom it was made up crouches, and his neighbors on the left and right, on the contrary, pull him up, not allowing him to sit down. You need to play at a good pace so that the participants enter the rage.

The main joke of this action is that absolutely all players have a second animal - a bunny. Therefore, after people alternately crouched on the names of other animals, the host says “Bunny!”, And the whole circle abruptly tries to crouch (trying to overcome the possible resistance of the neighbors, as was the case with other animals).

Naturally, general laughter begins, and a bunch of small ones gather on the floor!

"News from the New Year"

A great contest that you can play without leaving the table.


The facilitator will need to prepare cards on which unrelated words and concepts will be written - five or six words are no longer needed. Each participant receives a card and must quickly come up with a hot news from the New Year's issue, using all the words from the card. What to write on the cards? Any set of words.

  • China, dumplings, roses, Olympics, lilac.
  • Santa Claus, wheel, eraser, north, bag.
  • New Year, fan, pantyhose, pan, scabies.
  • Santa Claus, rat, herring, stapler, barrier.
  • Nettle, tinsel, Kirkorov, fishing rod, plane.
  • Football, shovel, snow, Snow Maiden, tangerines.
  • Snowman, beard, tights, bike, school.
  • Winter, zoo, laundry, boa constrictor, rug.

How to make news? Set an example for guests to use all the words, and the weirder the news gets, the more interesting it is.

Well, for example, from the last example I gave, you can build something like this: “A rug was found in a boa constrictor in a Moscow zoo during winter washing.” There will be a reason to be surprised, and to laugh, and to drink so that all the news in the new 2020 will be just as positive.

"Jumping into the New Year"

We in the family circle often arrange jumping as entertainment for the new year, and 2020 will not be an exception, I'm sure it's already a kind of tradition.


So, how it happens: after drinking for the outgoing year, the presenter brings felt-tip pens and pencils (the brighter the better) and a large sheet of paper (paper paper A0-A1) and invites everyone present not just to enter the new year, but to jump in - so that it passes dynamically, energetically and brightly!

And so that all desires come true, you need to draw them. On a large sheet, everyone draws their desires - someone manages to draw a few miniatures, someone just draws what they want schematically. By the president's speech, the drawing is usually already finished or the finishing touches remain. After the president's speech, the host invites everyone to join hands, count the chimes in chorus, and solemnly jump into the new year and into the fulfillment of their own desires!

By the way, my mother and I usually save the sheet, and next year we check who has what came true - also a topic for a table conversation, by the way.

"The best"

There are good New Year's entertainments without a host. A good way to keep guests entertained is to give them unique challenges, but few people want to compete just like that, right?


Therefore, we act as follows - we hang sweets or small gifts on the Christmas tree. It is best to opt for figured chocolate or other sweet Christmas decorations. We provide each with a note to whom the gift is intended, but we do not write names, but some definitions that guests will have to think about and get to know each other better (ideal when there are newcomers who need to join an existing company).

What to write on labels:

  1. The owner of the most brown eyes.
  2. The best high jumper.
  3. The biggest hooligan (here you have to tell everyone about your hooliganism in childhood).
  4. The owner of the best tan.
  5. The owner of the highest heels.
  6. The owner of the most dangerous job.
  7. A couple whose sum of clothing buttons is 10.
  8. The one who wears more yellow today.

I think you get the main message. Guests will independently begin to find out who rested where, who has a brighter tan, measure the length of heels and discuss work.

"Hat song"

By the way, almost all New Year's competitions at the table involve a game with a hat - they throw some notes into the hat in advance, and then they pull out and carry out the tasks of relatives or colleagues.

In the new year 2020, we will play a popular variation of this game with songs with our family. You need to write notes with winter and New Year's words into the hat, each guest blindly takes out a note from the hat and sings a song in which this word occurs.

By the way, you will be able to have fun even if during the feast you forget all the songs - most likely, your family, like my relatives, will have a great idea to compose a little song on the go to the most popular motive, or somehow remake one from famous New Year's songs of the past years.

By the way, this game is also suitable for a small company of any age - of course, a schoolboy is unlikely to recognize Soviet songs, but the result will be funny, and different age groups will be able to get closer during the game - after all, cool New Year contests unite!

"Mittens"

Naturally, New Year's contests for young people are not complete without flirting - why not help friends get closer?


So, the girls are put on dressing gowns or shirts, and the guys are given thick winter mittens. The essence of the competition is to fasten the shirts on the girls as quickly as possible so that they do not freeze!

By the way, my friends, who love various New Year's contests for teenagers and youth, wanted to do this contest the other way around - freeing the girls from their shirts, however, they were forced to disqualify the participant - it turns out that even in mittens it is convenient to pull the shirt hem and tear off all the buttons at once. Therefore, it is better to fasten it, it is not easy to do it in mittens.

"Let's draw Santa Claus"

Creative New Year contests for corporate parties are a great opportunity to have fun.


So, holes for hands are made in a dense sheet of cardboard. We give out brushes to the players, they must stick their hands into the holes and portray Santa Claus. At this moment they cannot see what they are drawing.

At work, you can divide the team into male and female teams, and give the task to one to portray the Snow Maiden, and the other to portray Grandfather Frost. The winner is the team whose result is most similar to a fairy-tale character.

By the way, if you are choosing contests for a New Year's corporate party, do not forget to look for fun music as well - I use cuttings from Soviet children's cartoons for New Year's contests 2020, this usually causes the warmest emotions.

"Giving Roles"

You can start fun competitions for the new year for the family with such entertainment.


Prepare more attributes of fairy-tale New Year's characters, put notes with roles in empty capsules from kinders (you can just wrap them in wrapping paper in the manner of sweets) and start playing at the table for the new year with an offer to find out who still rules the ball.

Everyone present should draw out their role. It can be snowflakes, bunnies, squirrels, Santa Claus and Snow Maiden, the Snow Queen, an overseas guest - Santa Claus and his deer. Distribute small attributes to all guests that will match their role on this night - for example, a crown will suit the snow queen, Santa Claus can knock loudly with an elegant staff, and a company of overgrown bunny boys with white ears will decorate any New Year's photo.

Believe me, New Year's table games will take on a new color as soon as grandmother Zima or Mikhailo Potapych, who has specially woken up for competitions for the new year 2020 and New Year's dances, starts to say a toast.

"Photo tests"

What cool contests for the new year without photos?


Make a photo area and collect some props in this corner - guests will be able to take pictures in different images, and then you can arrange photo tests. So, you will need to determine who is suitable for the role:

  • the most decrepit snowflake;
  • the most sleepy guest;
  • the most cheerful Baba Yaga;
  • the hungriest Santa Claus;
  • the most generous Santa Claus;
  • the kindest Santa Claus;
  • the most beautiful Snow Maiden;
  • the most gorged guest;
  • the most cheerful guest;
  • the most cunning Baba Yaga;
  • the most evil Kashchei;
  • the most powerful hero;
  • the most capricious princess;
  • the largest snowflake;
  • and so on…

By the way, you can hold this competition a little differently - stock up on props, and invite guests to pull out the role in which they will be photographed without looking, and the rest of the participants should help with advice and deed to better embody the image. You can laugh in the process, and when you view the pictures - good, you can do this in just a few minutes.

"Little Things from Santa Claus"

Tell the guests such a legend as Santa Claus walked through the forest with gifts, fell into a snowdrift with one foot and spilled gifts from a bag. The big ones stayed in the bag, but the little ones fell out. And you picked them up and now give them to all the guests.

Wrap all sorts of pleasant little things that you bought in advance in an opaque package, or, or you can wrap gifts in small pieces of cloth, like miniature bags tied with a thick thread or ribbon.


As pleasant little things can be: calendars, candles, key chains, pens, flashlights, kinders, liquid soap, magnets.

Every time it surprises with what trepidation the guests are waiting for these gifts ... Not only children, but even adults 🙂

Well, and finally, be a good magician and fortune teller, another New Year's entertainment from the site:

This competition is more mobile so that employees do not sit still. You can hold this competition in the corridor, where there will be more space. All those present are divided into two equal teams. They line up in two columns, one after the other. A line is drawn at the end of the corridor. Each team is given one item from the office (pen, corrector, stapler). When the leader claps his hands, the first two members of both teams begin to race to the line at the end of the corridor. They must leave their object behind the line and run back. When he comes running, he must touch the next team member so that he can continue the relay. The team that loses all items the fastest wins.

10 people take part in this competition. They are divided into two teams of 5 people each. At the end of the office, on the desk, the host puts two bottles of cognac or champagne and glasses.

One man and one woman must participate in this competition. They stand opposite each other, and between them is a stool. There is a prize on the stool. When the leader says "five" they must grab the prize. But the cunning presenter counts: "One, Two, Three, Four, Five ... ten", "One, Two, Three, Four, Five ... hundreds." The one who is more attentive and grabs the prize first will win this competition.

Competition number 10. "Matches on cilia".

For this competition you will need matches, two men and two women. The host indicates which pair will be the first. A woman puts a match or a toothpick on the eyelashes of a man. He must say as many New Year's greetings as possible until the toothpick falls. The host notes how many seconds have passed. Then the second pair does the same. The one who said more congratulations wins.

Three men and three women must participate in this competition. They are divided into three pairs. Each couple is given a roll of toilet paper. The host turns on incendiary music. The task of women is to wrap their partner with toilet paper as quickly as possible to make a mummy. The team whose participant completes the transformation of her man faster wins.

Competition number 12. "Nuts".

This competition needs four beautiful ladies. They are blindfolded. The leader places four chairs in the center of the office. On them he puts a different amount of walnuts. There can be eight of them on one chair, four on the other, six on the third, and one on the fourth. The facilitator then leads each participant to her chair. She must sit on it, and booty determine how many nuts are on her chair. Peeping and touching the nuts with your hands is prohibited. The winner will be the one whose butt correctly determines the number of nuts on her chair.

Competition number 13. "New Year's Lottery"

Everyone can take part in the lottery. The facilitator distributes to everyone present a piece of paper with a number. He has other leaves with the same numbers in his hat. In a huge red bag there are gifts wrapped in beautiful paper. Some of them are real and some are jokes. For example, a bag might contain scented candles and beautiful handmade soap, or a box of plasticine candies and a bottle of whiskey that smells like apple juice. The host takes out a gift, and a piece of paper with a number from the hat. Whoever has this number receives a gift. So every employee in the office will receive either a real or a comic gift. But the main thing is that everyone will get a good mood.
