Games and contests with jokes for a corporate party. Having fun on the New Year with colleagues

Elections of Santa Claus, contests, riddles, congratulations and other tips for holding this holiday.

Of course, the appearance of Santa Claus is joyfully welcomed by everyone - both adults and children. But if you are in a company not for children, you can arrange New Year's elections for the role of Santa Claus.
Then, as a prize, he will be given the staff, hat and beard of this beautiful Grandfather, instructed to make the first festive toast, order the first dance and, in general, instruct him to follow the progress of the holiday. The selection of applicants for this role can be done in several ways - you can simply recall that this Grandfather is wise and ancient, and therefore only those young men and men who are older in age will fight for the right to receive this title on New Year's Eve. At the same time, remember all the years and birthdays of your guests - men. It can be recalled that Grandfather loves this holiday for the abundance of a wonderful drink - champagne and let an inflatable or a real bottle of champagne around the men's circle to the music. In three musical moments, you will select three participants in the New Year's Election (when you stop the music, the person holding the bottle becomes Santa Claus)... Well, when Santa Clauses are selected, they can take part in the following competitions:
1. Santa Claus skillfully manages the troika. And rushes with the breeze to a meeting with everyone who is waiting for him on New Year's Eve. All participants are given a bunch of inflated balloons - three balloons - and they are invited to rush from one end of the room to the other, calling on the blizzard and the wind to help them. That is, the participants, blowing on a bunch of balls, try to transport them across the floor to the specified place.
2. Santa Claus in our difficult time should always be with money - after all, he needs to stock up on so many gifts and sweets so that everyone will have enough. But, remembering that this ancient Grandfather is pre-ancient, the victory in this competition will be won by the one who finds either at home or at the guests' home the coin of the oldest year of issue.
3. And yet - since you are holding New Year's elections, then let each Santa Claus state his “election program”, that is, say his wishes to everyone present. By the strength of the applause, it will not be difficult to choose the one who liked all the “voters”, that is, the guests, more.
4. We said that Santa Claus is an extremely wise comrade. Therefore, he simply must know everything about the New Year traditions of different countries. Let the electoral contestants guess your riddles. Whoever manages to do this faster will earn additional “votes” for his “candidacy” for the role of Santa Claus.
And the riddles are:
New Year is celebrated everywhere.
Please tell me what kind of people
Happy New Year to everyone
In the morning, sun rise ...
(Japanese.)
***
French and Russian and Spanish
We will be called, of course, a dance,
Which every new year
The Greek people are dancing.
(“Sirtaki”.)
***
In which country on New Year's Eve
(I will not prompt countries)
Broken dishes from the windows
Throwing joyful people?
(Italy.)
***
Now I ask you to give me an answer:
Where is the New Year called “Tet”?
Where no snow is swept that day,
Are the peach branches blooming?
(Vietnam.)

And you can ask the election participants a question about whether they know how Santa Clauses are called in different countries.
Santa Claus - America
Pere Noel - France
Babbo Natale - Italy
Mikulas - Czech Republic
Segatsu-san - Japan
Papa Pasquale is Latin America.

A more effective task can also be proposed - Santa Claus must be very agile, so to speak, physically ready for the fact that he will have to visit many different places in one New Year's Eve. And the preparedness for this is the next test - who will spin the hoop at the waist longer. Based on the results of four festive tasks, one out of three participants is selected, to whom this honorary title is awarded on this New Year's Eve - Santa Claus!
And, of course, literary, poetic material will decorate the holiday, make it more emotional, solemn, and brighter.
There are many wonderful holidays
Each comes in his turn.
But the kindest holiday in the world
The best holiday ever
New Year!
He comes along a snowy road
Swirling snowflakes in a round dance.
Mysterious and austere beauty
Fills the heart of the New Year!
He gives us faith in a good case,
On the first day and on a new turn,
Helps you get better
New Year to all people in the world!
Louder laughter and more joyful hugs,
And flies from all earthly latitudes
Clock chime. We are all brothers to each other!
There is a holiday on the planet - New Year!
***
Hear, the music started playing again.
This, friends, is the beginning of new dances.
Everywhere fun and joy sparkles,
In a waltz, let each of you
will spin!
***
The final song in general performance can be an excellent ending to the holiday. The motive is familiar to everyone: “We wish you happiness,” and the words can be distributed in advance.
Our song will end the holiday
And now the alarm will ring.
Let's remember how much joy
The old year has brought us.
And, stepping fearlessly into the New Year,
We believe he will bring good luck.
Exactly one year with you
Father Frost is parting.

30-70 people

Duration of the corporate party

• Props for contests.
• Prizes and gifts.

New Year's corporate party plan

1. Official congratulations

It is best to start the holiday with an official congratulation from the management of the company (director, heads of departments). Congratulations should not be prolonged, it is advisable to spend it with humor, jokes and New Year's poems.

You should not use a congratulatory speech for an official report on the work done; you just need to briefly sum up the results of the year and be sure to thank all the employees.

2. Banquet

Depending on the number of participants and the premises in which the celebration takes place, the nature of the banquet may vary. Guests can be seated at one large table or small tables. Participants can take their seats immediately upon arrival at the holiday or after an official greeting.

On such long holidays as New Year's, it is not recommended to arrange a buffet table. Even if a general feast is not expected, it is necessary to provide a sufficient number of seats for the participants.

3. Game "Memories"

This game can be offered during a feast. Any number of people participate in the game. The players take turns calling an event (preferably pleasant or funny) that took place in the company (or directly relates to it) during the past year. Anyone who cannot remember any event is eliminated from the game. The last participant remaining in the game receives a prize.

The game can be terminated earlier by rewarding several participants. The best prize in the game will be a notebook.

4. Competition of wishes for the next year

In addition, at the table, you can hold a competition for the best wishes for the company or your department for the next year. It is most convenient if the wishes are in the form of toasts. A jury made up of the firm's management selects the winners, who will be awarded prizes. A bottle of champagne or other wine is most suitable as a prize for this competition.

5. Election of an honorary Santa Claus

After the bulk of the guests are satisfied, you can offer some more active entertainment. The host announces a competition for an honorary Santa Claus. Those wishing to take part in the competition are invited to the stage. The following competitions are held between them:

Snowflake

Each competitor receives a napkin and scissors. His task is to cut the snowflake as quickly and accurately as possible. The authors of the best snowflakes receive prize points.

Frosty breath

For the next competition, players put their snowflakes on the table, and they themselves stand on one side of the table (if there are many applicants for the title of Santa Claus, you can move several tables). Their task is to blow off the snowflake from the opposite side of the table.

Participants try to do this as quickly as possible, but the player whose snowflake was the last to fly off the table will receive the prize point in the competition. The host explains to the surprised players that this challenger has "the coldest breath."

Red nose

In this competition, participants are invited to have a glass of vodka or other strong drink. After that, the audience selects the contestant with the reddest nose. He gets the prize point.

The contender with the most prize points is declared an honorary Santa Claus. He is put on a mask of Santa Claus or a red hat of Santa Claus. If several participants in the competition scored the same number of points, you can choose Santa Claus by drawing lots or appoint several participants to this honorary position at the same time.

All participants in the competition receive incentive prizes.

Despite the simplicity of these contests, they are very fun in a certain holiday atmosphere.

6. Election of the Snow Maiden

After the election of Santa Claus, the presenter announces that it is necessary to pick up a granddaughter for Santa Claus, and invites everyone to take part in the Snow Maidens competition. The following competitions are held between the applicants:

New year song

The contestants take turns singing the verse of the song “A Christmas tree was born in the forest”. Santa Claus and the audience choose the winner of the competition, which receives a prize point.

Father Frost's request

Santa Claus names 5-7 items that he needs. The participant who finds and brings these items earlier than others will receive a prize point.

Items can be very diverse: fruits, jewelry, a glass of some kind of drink, pieces of clothing (the intimacy of which depends on the relaxedness of the company) and shoes. Participants should ask for the necessary things from other guests, find them on the festive table or among their own things.

Affectionate granddaughter

Contestants take turns complimenting Santa Claus. The winner of the competition can be the applicant who came up with the most words, or the participant whose words were most liked by Santa Claus. The winner receives a prize point.

The participant who scores more than other points is declared the winner and is nominated by the Snow Maiden. If several applicants for this role have scored the same number of points, the final word remains with Santa Claus.

All participants in the competition receive incentive prizes.

After the election of Santa Claus and Snegurochka, they can present all guests with small memorable gifts (for example, boxes of chocolates).

7. Contests and games

After the contests, you can hold several games among those who wish. Simultaneously with the games, the feast continues, some of those present can move on to dancing.

North and South wind

The game requires two participants and one snowflake carved at the Santa Claus competition. The snowflake is placed on the table, the participants sit on opposite sides of the table. At the command of the presenter, the players begin to blow on the snowflake, trying to throw it off the table from the opponent's side. Anyone who succeeds will receive a prize.

After several pairs of participants try their hand at this competition, those who wish are invited to do the same, but with a blindfold. The drawing consists in the fact that after the participants are blindfolded, the snowflake is replaced with a saucer of flour, on which the participants begin to blow.

If you are not sure that the participants will perceive such a rally with humor, it is better to limit yourself to the usual rules of the game. In any case, it is not recommended to involve women in the drawing.

Ringbros

Empty bottles and bottles of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages line up tightly on the floor. Participants are invited to put a ring on the bottle from a distance of 3 m. Anyone who manages to throw a ring on a full bottle takes it as a prize. The number of throws for one participant must be limited.

The ring is cut from thin cardboard. The diameter of the ring is 10 cm.

Re-songs about winter

This game is best done during a meal. Participants can be divided into teams. Each participant (or team) takes turns singing a verse of a song about winter. The participant who finds it difficult to make his move is eliminated. The last participant (or team of players) remaining in the game receives a prize.

31th of December

Also a game for a feast. Participants take turns calling any date starting from January 1. In this case, the next participant changes in the date named by the previous participant, the day or month, and the named date must be later.

For example:

• 1st player: "January 2".
• 2nd player: "February 2".
• 3rd player: "February 7th."
• 4th player: "June 7".
• 5th player: June 30, etc.

Thus, the named dates are getting closer and closer to December 31st. The participant who will have to name this date loses and completes the penalty task assigned by the other participants.

8. Astrological forecast for office workers

To entertain the guests, one of the participants can dress up as a fortune-teller or astrologer. The simplest prediction option is to find the zodiac horoscope for the next year (preferably a comic one) and read it.

Another option is that the host can inform the guests about the new discovery of astrologers and modern magicians. Everyone knows the zodiac, Chinese, flower horoscopes and the horoscope of the Druids. But now a new horoscope has appeared - office workers (if this name does not quite fit the activities of the company, it is possible to modify the proposed forecasts, making them more relevant for this organization).

Comic astrological forecast for employees

The proposed astrological forecast can also be written on posters decorating the premises. In this case, it is necessary to make appropriate explanations to it.

9. Dancing

As an active recreation, you can organize dances or play a few more games.

If the holiday is held in the company's own premises, it is necessary to come up with a decoration for the room. In order for those who came to the evening to immediately create a festive mood, Christmas tree garlands and balloons are hung. You can arrange bouquets of fir branches on the tables. In addition, it is possible to announce (for example, by department) a competition for wall newspapers on a New Year's theme.

With a small number of employees attending the holiday, all guests can participate in the proposed games and contests. If the number of those present exceeds 30 people, several initiative participants are called (preferably from different departments).

If the participants sit at small tables (6-10 people each), the proposed games can be conducted for employees sitting at the same table.

And what fun is it without New Year's games, contests, fairy tales with dressing up and funny entertainment !? Moreover, everyone wants to move a little and play pranks after the traditionally generous New Year's table for all sorts of goodies and drinks!

Here are offered New Year's games and contests for a wide variety of tastes: creative, funny, lively and moderately spicy . These are funny games for funny people, some of them will be useful at corporate parties, others - more suitable for home celebrations and a close company of friends. Think about which ones you need, and play like New Year's with fun and pleasure!

1. New Year's game "Santa Claus is coming .."

This entertainment can be held just before the appearance of Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden and involve all guests in it, for example, during a dance break. The host invites the guests to stand up so as not to interfere with each other and call Santa Claus in an unusual way: not with a shout, but with an unusual New Year's dance. The meaning of the game is as follows: you need to replace the words of the New Year's verse with sign language.

Santa Claus is coming, coming to us,

Santa Claus is coming to us!

And we know that Santa Claus

He brings us gifts! Hooray!

All words are replaced by gestures: "walking" - walking in place, "Santa Claus" - we put a hand with spread fingers to the chin (depicting a beard), the combination "to us" - a gesture pointing to oneself. To show the word “we know”, we put our finger to our forehead, the word “we” is a gesture pointing to all the guests, the word “carries” is like a bag over the shoulders, and when the word “gifts” is used, everyone depicts what he dreams about. "Hooray!" - everyone stomps and claps

For more interest, it is better to change words to gestures gradually: first one word, then two, until the last word disappears, and only gestures remain with a cheerful musical accompaniment.

And when they start clapping (meaning "hurray"), Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden appear, who distribute gifts to the "artists" (if any) or begin their program.

2. New Year's competition "Race for Fortune"

The role of "luck" in this competition will be played by durable unbreakable Christmas tree decorations, for example, large and colorful balls. Other equipment will require children's plastic mini-hockey sticks (or Chinese back-scratching hands), one for each player (3-4 people are enough).

At the start, the participants are tied with children's clubs (go back scratches) to the belt, and the finish is marked with chairs for each. Chairs will also play the role of a gate into which players must drive their "ball of luck". This can be done only with clubs, in no case using your hands.

Naturally, the winner is the one who scores a goal faster - "drive the luck" into his own goal. He is awarded the talisman of good luck (Christmas tree decoration), he is declared "lucky of the year" - everyone else, including those sitting in the hall, is invited to urgently touch the one who has just caught his luck, so that he will be lucky too.

3. "Be my tree!"

First, the participants in this competition cut out a Christmas tree toy from colored cardboard. Then, with the help of the received clothespin or paper clip, they should hang the "created miracle" on the Christmas tree, but ... with a blindfold. The most insidious thing about the rules of this game is that the participants, having "deprived" their eyesight, are spun around their axis and then offered to reach the tree. At the same time, the tree for everyone will be the first thing that he will rest against - there he must hang his toy.

Usually, hardly anyone gets to a real tree, so the main prize is given to the one who stumbles upon the most, and even can hang his work on it.

4. Competition at the New Year's holiday "The most resourceful Snow Maiden".

To participate in this competitive game, we form five pairs (boy-girl). Girls are blindfolded, and about ten Christmas tree decorations are hidden in men's clothes. Jewelry can be hidden in pockets, socks, bosom, hung on a tie, attached to a lapel, and so on. The main thing is to try not to use anything beating, stabbing or cutting in this game.

The task of the girls - "Snow Maidens" is to find everything hidden on the body of their partner. Naturally, the girl who discovers the largest number of toys in the allotted period of time wins and receives the title "The most resourceful Snow Maiden".

5. New Year's greetings for the boss.

This is a party competition. The presenter will need to call five to seven people, preferably both men and women. The presenter asks such an innocent question: with which of the animals, birds or flowers (if the boss is a lady), each of you associates your boss.

Then everyone comes out, names their association and depicts it, on command freeze - it becomes a sculpture, the next one comes out - everything repeats - the whole picture is obtained. Depending on the content of this picture, the toastmaster announces that the employees decided not to waste time on trifles and give the boss an instant picture of Repin "We Didn't Expect" or a picture of an unknown author "Morning after a corporate party".

Perhaps it will be funnier if you limit the associations only to the animal world and then imagine it - as a picture of an unknown author "Animals at the Banquet".

Everyone gets a chance to join the art and have fun, and the "native" bosses melt away from the sign of attention shown personally to him.

6. "Mischievous" signs.

At the beginning of the draw, six players are shown six plates, which depict a green Christmas tree, a bottle of champagne, a roll of toilet paper, a chair, a package of New Year's napkins and a beautiful box with a bow - a gift. Then the players sit with their backs to the hall, and it is announced to them that one of the plates shown is attached to their chairs in random order, they randomly make an assumption which one and, in accordance with their assumption, answer the questions:

• What do you think happens to you when you are first brought into the house?
• What do you think guests do when they pick you up?
• How often does the owner use you?
• Where do you go after use?
• What can replace you, if you really need it?
• What material do you think they are made of?

There are no losers or winners in this raffle game, but everyone deserves a round of applause.

7. Game moment "Road to New Year"

(Thanks to the author - Adekova T.I.)

The Leader reads the text. The guests line up and walk at the appropriate moment.

Leading... The road to the New Year awaits you,
And he will pass the whole year along it,
Who will only take what is needed.
In the New Year we go in a crowd ...
Did you take everything with you?
If health has been taken,
Take a step forward wider!
Are we in the mood?
We are walking together with you!
We take problems ... Well, alas ...
You must not step forward!
And who dared to take it all the same,
You will have to surrender back!
We'll grab some money, because they
We must influence our life.
And how many pockets can you count
So many steps and walk!
Who lagged behind? Friends will help you
Have ... one more pocket.

An additional pocket is pinned to the laggards.

Hope must also be taken

It's somehow more fun to walk with her!
Do we take love? By itself!
We cannot live with you without her.
How many grandchildren do you have, children?
According to their number, you take steps as soon as possible.
Who will take friendship with him?
He boldly goes a whole step forward.
And who dared to take the blues?
I'll ask you to walk back!
And happiness will not hurt us.
May it accompany everyone
And it will enter every house ...
Let's move one step forward!
Now turn to each other
And hug tightly!
Celebrate the New Year with you together
And walk along his path
Forward! Despite adversity!
Happy New Year to everyone!

The host hands over a bottle of champagne to the first in line.

Feel free to take a bottle of champagne,
Now treat each other to champagne.
May your road be easy!
And again I wish you all a Happy New Year!

8. "Revived" chairs.

In this game, Santa Claus himself "drives". He recruits participants, there must be at least ten people, and seats them on chairs. The chairs are arranged in a staggered manner with the seats facing each other. First, they put the number of chairs, how many participants are involved in the game. The players sit down, and Santa Claus begins to walk around to a New Year's song, and the one next to whom he knocks on the floor with his staff, gets up from his place and begins to follow Frost, as if tied.

Thus, Santa Claus lifts all participants in the process from their chairs and begins to write out different pretzels around the hall. Everyone who follows him on his heels must clearly follow all his "zigzags". From the side, it turns out to be a rather interesting sight, because this whole procession, following Grandfather, either crouches, then waves its arms and performs other actions.

However, you need to immediately warn the players that when Santa Claus hits the floor with his staff twice, you need to run headlong to the chairs and take your place. In fact, while all this "caterpillar" led by Grandfather is "walking", one chair is removed, so that upon returning one of the players will not find a place for himself.

After this trick, the game is repeated anew, only the second time two chairs disappear - then the game goes to the last "survivor" (he gets a prize).

9. New Year "Crocodile"

Even such a well-known game as "Crocodile" at the New Year's holiday can be presented in a new way. For example, the theme of guessed pantomimes is to make comic plots from life and "workdays" ... Santa Claus and Snow Maiden.

To do this, the presenter prepares a lot of paper cards in advance with the following content about Santa Claus: “Santa Claus fell asleep after the children's matinee in a bag of gifts”, “Santa Claus had enough and woke up in bed with the Snow Woman”, “Children stole from Santa Claus beard "," Santa Claus received a telegram with a request from the Moscow zoo to give him a deer "," Santa Claus ate ice cream "," Santa Claus gave the Snow Maiden underwear. "

About Snegurochka something like this: "Snegurochka will cheat on Santa Claus with the Snowman", "Snegurochka worked at a matinee in a sex shop", "Snegurochka gave birth to Santa Claus twins", "Snegurochka found Santa Claus in bed with the Snow Queen", "Snegurochka was paid 1000 dollars for a striptease "," After the holidays, the Snow Maiden recovered by 6 kg ", etc.

Select tasks for a specific company, of course, they should be different for an adult party and for a family holiday.

The rules can be changed a little, for example, to divide the participants into two teams, each pulling out a card for himself. Then, in turn, using only facial expressions and gestures, they depict what has been written in the style of pantomime, and the opposing team guesses. Time can be limited, and at the end of the game, it is possible to calculate which team had the most guesses, or you can not do it at all, because the main thing is general fun.
