Such a feast will remain in the memory of all guests for a long time. Therefore, people are trying to come up with various cool table games for adults’ birthdays that can not only amuse guests, but also train their brains.

Cool competition at the table called “Spy Passions”

These competitions are based on solving mysterious stories if there is a lack of information.

All people, regardless of their age, love secrets, especially when the winner also receives a gift at the end of the competition.

Determining the subject in an interesting competition with forks

This game consists of the following: you need to identify an object without seeing it. The participant is blindfolded. He holds only two forks in his hands, with which he must guess as many objects as possible within two minutes. You can't touch things!

Things can be very diverse, for example: a scarf, a banana, a wallet, a comb, an apple, candy, and so on.

To make the task easier for the participant, he can pose leading questions to the presenter. Such as: “Is this made of plastic?”, “Is this edible?”, “Is this a product?” household chemicals? and another series of questions that will help determine the subject.

The answer can only be “No” or “Yes”. Whoever guesses the most and more correctly becomes the winner. This game will bring a great charge of good mood.

Imagination game “Guess who I am”

This is a fun table game for adults' birthdays with questions and answers.

All participants in the competition have a piece of paper with an inscription pasted on their forehead. This could be: an object, an animal, a character from a movie or cartoon, a popular personality.

People taking part in the game see all the inscriptions except their own. All players ask questions in turn. For example: “Is this a vegetable?” or “I am a man.” The answers to them will be “Yes” or “No”.

The winner will be the one who names his character first.

If a person does not guess correctly, he leaves the game or is given some kind of punishment. If the game seems too difficult, then you can give extended answers, with a more complete description.

Magic ball with riddles on sheets of paper

For this game you need to prepare a small surprise, riddles of varying difficulty and foil. Write down the riddles on paper.

The surprise is wrapped in the first layer of foil, and a leaf with a riddle is glued to it. This manipulation is done about 7 times. There are easy riddles at the top, and more complex ones closer to the surprise. The presenter reads the inscription.

The one who guesses the riddle removes the foil and reads out the next riddle. This process is repeated until it is removed last layer foil.

The winner is the participant who solves the most difficult riddle and removes the last layer of foil accordingly. He also gets a gift.

What kind of prize is hidden in the bag?

This competition is perfect for a birthday. The name of the birthday person is taken as a basis. It will be great if it is long and almost matches the number of guests. For example, the name Mikhail. It consists of 6 letters.

We put 6 gifts for each letter in a special bag. For example: M – soap; I – figs; X – halva; A – orange; I - toffee; L – lemon. Players are given little hints. The participant in the game who guesses the item becomes the winner.

Game without additional details “Guard”

This is a simple game, no props are needed, it will bring a lot of unforgettable emotions in every company.

  • Players are divided into pairs;
  • Everyone is given a piece of paper and a pencil. A word, any noun, is written on a piece of paper. You can make up to 20 words in total;
  • The leaves are placed in an opaque container or bag. One participant holds the bag and takes out pieces of paper one by one. He explains to his partner the object written on the paper without saying its name out loud. For example, “orange” means “a round, edible fruit.”
    If your partner guesses the word, then it’s the next piece of paper’s turn.

Each pair of participants has only 20 seconds to solve the problem, then the capacity passes to the next pair of players.

The task is complicated by the fact that in this short time it is necessary to unravel as many words as possible. The players gesticulate, stammer, stutter, and this creates a lot of laughter.

Funny competitions held on the name day of “Nonsense”

These cool birthday table contests are based on random matching of words, which can reveal all the secrets of the players.

The sudden “truth” will not only amuse everyone, but will also reveal secrets that are deep in the subconscious.

Ask a question and get an answer on pieces of paper

The conditions of the game are clear from its name. Questions and answers are written on pieces of paper and laid out, text down, in two piles. The first participant takes out a piece of paper with a question and nominates another player, who takes out a piece of paper with the answer and reads it out loud. Then everything repeats all over again.

During this competition you will find out the most unexpected secrets your friends.

Making up a story using the alphabet

In front of the participants of this game, cards are laid out on which all the letters of the alphabet are written. The first participant takes out one card with a letter, and the remaining players name the word for this letter, but this must be done in such a way that the result is a funny story.

For example, with the letter “K”: “Kuzma was rolling steeply towards the cat when someone threw the ladle.” The funnier and more resourceful the players, the funnier the game will be.

Find the missing words in the story about the guests

The host of the competition writes a story in advance in which all the characters are guests of the holiday. However, this narrative lacks some words; the participants must come up with them themselves.

Each player, in turn, says a word that is not in the text. It can be: verb, noun or adjective.

The most suitable ones will fit here unusual combinations and revolutions. The main thing is that it is funny! When all the words are inserted, the overall work is read aloud.

Noun and adjective in the game

This game has the same principle as the previous one. The last participant in the row names the word, saying what kind it is (feminine or masculine). For example, "Sideboard". Then all players, in turn, say adjective epithets. The last player calls the hidden word.

The result is: “Handsome, charming, nasty, sweet, extravagant sideboard.” The competition goes pretty quickly. All participants change places.

“It’s in my pants right now...”

The concept of the game is not revealed until the very end. All players sit in a circle. Each participant tells the person sitting on the left the name of any series, movie or cartoon. The participant remembers, but tells the next player a different name, and so on.

Then the host of the competition tells each player to say “It’s in my pants...” and name the film whose name he heard from a neighbor.

Imagine how much laughter the guests will have when they hear that “Leopold the Cat” or “Friends” is hiding in the indicated place.

Creative competitions for friends “Discover your talents”

The games presented below will help reveal the talent, artistic and creative abilities of its participants.

As a result, they will be able to determine the funniest and most talented.

Dance while sitting and have fun

Participants in this competition sit on chairs in the center of the room. The catchy music turns on and they start dancing while sitting. The presenter names those parts of the body that should dance at the moment.

For example, “Now we dance with our eyes, lips, then our eyebrows, then our legs,” and so on. The audience determines who danced on the chair better.

Try to make the foolish princesses laugh

Some time is given for this competition. If all the non-laughing princesses managed to make them laugh, then their rivals win, and if not, then the non-laughing ones become winners.

Become a real sculptor and create a masterpiece

For this competition you will need plasticine. One player names any letter of the alphabet, and the other players must mold plasticine into an object corresponding to a given letter.

Funny game “Mouth full of candy”

This game is quite popular. It requires small candies. Players put candy in their mouths and say: “Happy birthday!”

Then it’s the next candy’s turn and the same congratulations are repeated. The winner is the participant who, with the most candies, pronounces this phrase most clearly and legibly.

Maintain coordination in the attention game “Tower”

This game is not for the faint of heart. The most favorable moment to start it is when the guests have had a little drink, but they can still maintain coordination.

A “tower” is made from domino plates. They should be marked with the letter “P”. Then the second, third floor is built, and so on. All participants play one record.

The player who accidentally breaks the “tower” is given an additional portion of alcohol.

Who can complete the puzzles faster?

For this competition you will need puzzles with 54 pieces, you can pick up and bigger option. Players are divided into two teams and collect the picture as quickly as possible. Collecting puzzles for a very long time can tire players. So the main thing here is not to overdo it.

The most common game for adults “Pantomime”

This game is very common, everyone knows and loves it since childhood. It is suitable for different age categories. Its other names are “Cow”, “Crocodile”. You can play either in a team or alone.

The presenter chooses one person from each group and tells him a word. At first these are simple names of objects or animals.

Then the tasks become more difficult. The words are more complex. Such as: “deposit”; "reality"; "hatred"; "London"; "Africa". Each player must show their friends what it is without making a sound. The team gets a point for guessing the word.

Whose toast is better at the holiday

No celebration, especially a birthday, is complete without toasts. However, not everyone is able or willing to speak them. Usually greetings are reduced to banal wishes of “health, happiness and love.” In order for the wishes to become original, toasts must be made under the following conditions:

  • Say wishes to the birthday person in a themed style. Here everything depends on the contingent of the assembled company. There may be congratulations in the style of “Alice in Wonderland”, “brothers” with criminal vocabulary or using the works of Tolkien;
  • Congratulations that say about food: “Let everything be in chocolate”;
  • Writing poetic congratulations;
  • Congratulations related to the animal world “Fast as a doe!”;
  • Make a toast in a foreign language;
  • Congratulate the birthday person using various words taken from the air. For example, the moon, a book, shoes, a director, an airplane, etc.;

Assignments are written on paper and distributed to everyone present. The list can be long.

A magical fairy tale about a birthday boy

Participants are divided into two teams of equal composition. Everyone writes words on paper. The latter should be dedicated to some topic.

So, one group writes down words associated with “Birthday”. The other team describes the character of the hero of the occasion, the events of his life, and comes up with associations associated with him.

Guests can be divided into women's and men's teams. Then women describe men (courage, bravery, gentleman). And men of their companions (grace, beauty, femininity).

Then the players change entries. The leaves are turned clean side up. Players, in turn, take out pieces of paper and come up with a sentence with a given word. The team should have a coherent story. Then it’s the other team’s turn.

Guess what's in the plate

This competition takes place while eating. The presenter says the letter of the alphabet, and each participant must quickly name the product that is on his plate.

In this game you cannot name the letters: “i”, “e”, “b”, “b”, “s”. The player who guessed first becomes the leader.

If no one names a word starting with a given letter, then he receives a gift. To hold a festive event, you need to prepare for a long time in advance. You need to buy a lot of products and prepare a lot of different foods from them.

Guests can be asked to help prepare competitive program. They can bring props or crafts with them. But just don’t involve them in what you have planned.

Let it be a surprise for them. Any celebration will become original and memorable if you approach its preparation with all your heart.

About how to turn a birthday into a fun, unusual event with the help of games for the whole company. All games are connected in one way or another with wishes to the birthday person and can replace the traditional exchange of toasts. Preparation for the games is minimal, and as a result, everyone will remember this day!

Good luck to you friends!

Each participant is given several pieces of paper. On each of them you need to write (without showing anyone) the name of any character (celebrity, book character, movie character, cartoon character, etc.)
All the leaves must be folded several times so that what is written is not visible.

The point of the game is that each participant will draw out a piece of paper with a character, which he will become for one round of the game. The rest will guess))

Previously, we pulled out leaves for everyone and glued them on their foreheads. But this is not very convenient, and not everyone likes it, so the process was simplified a little.

Here's how we play: The first volunteer closes his eyes, pulls out a piece of paper with the character’s name and, without opening his eyes, passes it to his neighbor. The neighbor reads what was written and passes the piece of paper on so that all participants read what was written.

The leaf is laid down, the volunteer opens his eyes.

I repeat that the essence of the game: each player must guess the name of his character (which he naturally does not see).

How to guess? IN classic version In the game, the one whose name we must guess asks questions.

In practice it quickly became boring and we began to play differently.

The person guessing asks: “Who am I?”

And the participants take turns or in random order, talk about the Character (You are...)
The softest thing is to speak at length, beautifully and incomprehensibly, actively using the pattern of uncertainty.

What does Guessable do?

Firstly, he enjoys! Why? Because the stories about the character are so interesting that even when you guess it, you don’t say it right away, you want to listen to everyone))

Secondly, he can ask clarifying questions.

For the New Year 2015, I received 1000% pleasure from this game (we played from the evening until 3-4 in the morning)

Having found out during the discussion that man is also an animal, a tradition was established to begin each round with the phrase: “You are an animal!”
As a rule, this was followed by a clarification: “You are an archetypal animal”))

So figure out who they wished for: Babu Yaga or Cthulhu?))

It was funny to watch the surprise on Seryoga’s face, who was told: “You’re not even an animal!” (The character was Kapitoshka)

And the pleasure I got when I got “Schrodinger’s Cat” is beyond words to describe. Mutually exclusive statements about my character rained down from all sides, and guessing the cat was a real thrill.

In short, love Mind games If you like to use your imagination, this game is for you!

It is interesting to spend time in a company where everyone knows each other well. One of the participants becomes the leader, he leaves the room, the rest make a guess for someone present. The returning leader can ask the whole group questions like this: “If this person were a tree (bird, weather, landscape, fruit, etc.), what kind?”

Leading: Now we will give gifts to each other. Starting with the leader, everyone in turn uses pantomime to depict some object and passes it to their neighbor on the right (ice cream, hedgehog, weight, flower, etc.) They show this to the person sitting next to them using facial expressions and gestures. As soon as the person sitting has guessed correctly, he can wish for his gift to the next player sitting behind him. You can explain only with the help of facial expressions and gestures. The one to whom it was given can support the action. For example, pantomime to show how he unwraps a gift, twirls it, and so on. And of course, say “Thank you!”

The presenter calmly and clearly pronounces one syllable out loud: “Ha.” Further in the circle, the next guest loudly and clearly pronounces the next two syllables: “Ha-ha.” The third participant supports the previous two and continues: “Ha ha ha.” And so on!

The host divides the guests at the table into approximately 5 groups. (even 1-2 people in a group).
Leading:
Now we will listen to the Georgian choir! To do this, each group will rhythmically sing (pronounce) their words. The first group begins the choir with their phrase, repeating it continuously without stopping. As soon as the 1st phrase has been heard once or twice, the 2nd part joins the choir (at the command of the leader). Then the 3rd and 4th parties join one after another. The 5th part is spoken with the longest pauses between phrases.


The customs of our country are such that rarely any holidays are complete without the consumption of strong drinks. So, what can you do to have fun and cheer up during a feast?

This game has been known for a long time, and hardly anyone has not played it at least once. The idea is this: one item is taken from 6 people present at the celebration and placed in a bag specially prepared in advance.

Men must participate in the competition. The point of the game is as follows: men, sitting on a chair with a newspaper in their hands, each read their own newspaper at the same time. Moreover, they should sit in a fairly relaxed position, crossing their legs and rolling up one of their trouser legs (the leg should be visible).
And since the competition is to identify the best reader, they must read as best and as expressively as possible, trying to outshine each other with their talent. The best texts to read are: different styles, it will be more interesting.

Love for feasts is a feature of our national character. And it doesn’t matter at all for what reason relatives and friends gather. It is only important that it is a “proper” celebration, and not a drinking party, so that everyone has fun and interesting. So, when organizing it, pick up at least a couple cool competitions For fun company at the table.

It's more fun together

Usually there comes a moment in a celebration when some of the guests, who have not yet had time to “get ready”, hastily leave the celebration, and some remain to continue celebrating the event, no longer even fully aware of the reason for which people were gathered. To avoid such division and unite the guests, the hosts should take care of holding cool competitions for drunk company. This will not be particularly difficult, but you need to consider:

  • the age of the guests (an elderly lady is unlikely to find it interesting to wear a raw egg in a spoon at speed);
  • status of invitees (for a corporate party with the participation of the boss it is better not to prepare competitions related to
  • changing clothes or kissing);
  • venue (if the feast takes place at home, then all fun must be completed before 21.00, so as not to cause
  • anger of others).

We sit at the table, eat and dance!

It is better to select cool competitions for a fun company for a birthday or any other holiday from different categories:

  • mobile;
  • static;
  • colloquial.

Let's look at examples for each of them.

Movable

Already from the name it is clear that participation in competitions of this type involves movement. Therefore, they should be held before serving hot food, after an aperitif, while the guests are still able to move quickly enough.

"New Dances"

Instructions:

  • The host selects a couple of guests and seats them in the center of the hall.
  • The task is explained to the participants. They are invited to arrange a dance battle - without getting up from their chair, move that part of the body that the toastmaster (or guests) calls.
  • The winner is chosen with applause and the second couple is seated.
  • The winners of the qualifying rounds meet in the final.

"Nimble cucumber"

Instructions:

  • Participants form a ring, put their hands behind their backs, touching each other's shoulders.
  • One player enters the circle.
  • Guests place a long cucumber in each other's hands, biting off a little at a time. The player’s task is to understand whose hands the vegetable is in at the moment when someone from the circle shouts: “Who has the cucumber?”
  • If the participant in the center of the ring guesses it, he stands in a circle, and the one who asked the question takes his place. If it was not possible to guess the location of the cucumber - the baton, the player continues to look for it.

“Let me hold on!”

Instructions:

  • The guests stand in a circle.
  • The presenter takes one of the participants by some part of the body (for example, by the ear).

  • The players sit in a circle.
  • Cards are laid out in front of them, each of them shows a letter of the alphabet.
  • The host raises any letter, and the guests begin to come up with a word for each, but so as to create a coherent story.

  • The host names the letter of the alphabet and the name of the guest.

No one should be bored at a wedding. AND The host’s task is to think through the scenario for the wedding day so that both young and elderly guests feel comfortable. This is what funny, cheerful words are meant for. There are active entertainments, but there are also “sedentary” competitions, in which you don’t even need to get up from the table to participate.

The main task of table wedding competitions is to entertain those present and prevent the banquet from turning into a banal drinking party. Therefore, competitions should be fun and humorous: there is no place for sadness and boredom at a wedding. However, vulgarity should not be tolerated.

Table wedding competitions can be divided into several large groups:

  1. shouting games;
  2. congratulation games;
  3. quizzes;
  4. lotteries;
  5. comic games;
  6. music and creative competitions.

Important! It is necessary to discuss with the newlyweds which competitions and prizes should be used and which ones should not. Not everyone will be happy about a lottery in which the winner is a roll toilet paper or a toothbrush. If you don't know which prize to choose, use sweets (sweets or small chocolates) - they will suit almost all guests.

For acquaintance

After the excitement of the ceremonial registration, a walk through your favorite city places. The guests have gathered. As a rule, not all of them know each other. And the first task of the leader wedding ceremony– select such competitions for wedding banquet so that each of the guests feels comfortable at the table, so that everyone gets to know each other and becomes friends with each other - it doesn’t matter which side this guest is from. The family is now one, and relatives and friends are common.


The first table competitions at a wedding are aimed at uniting and liberating the guests. They will be interspersed with toasts and congratulations to the newlyweds.

Chants

There are many variations of such games; they consist in the fact that after the words of the host, the guests must pronounce the same phrase in chorus. Here is an example of such an oath game that the host can play at the beginning of the feast:

We, friends, are together today

Let's say a lot of kind words

The groom, his bride...

Be ready! Always ready! (the last phrase is pronounced in chorus)

We congratulate the young

Have fun again and again.

Let's dance, let's play...

Be ready! Always ready!

We will sing songs loudly,

And walk until dawn

Be ready! Always ready!

Glory to the bride and groom!

Let's raise a toast to love.

And drink to their health

Be ready! Always ready!

Let’s all shout together: “Bitter!”

Let the shelter be reliable,

So that happiness is complete,

Be ready! Always ready!

Newlyweds' vow

Since the guests promised to be cheerful and friendly at the wedding celebration, the groom and his bride must take a reciprocal oath. To compose its text, the presenter asks the guests to name ten adjectives (any, for what purpose - the presenter should not say). Then he inserts them in order into the text of the oath and invites the newlyweds to solemnly pronounce it in the presence of guests.

After such a cheerful start to the banquet, it is unlikely that anyone at the table will remain gloomy and gloomy. Good mood guaranteed for everyone.

Toast games, congratulation games

Usually at the wedding table the order of toasts and congratulations to the newlyweds is established according to different principles:

  • by kinship: first the closest relatives - parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters;
  • at the table– starting with those sitting closer to the young and further in order;
  • voluntarily.

However, this order can also be established with the help of a fun game.

Unusual alphabet

In advance with reverse side chairs or under a plate, small cards with the letters of the alphabet are laid out - from A to Z (if there are more guests, you can use the letters two or three times). When the time comes for congratulations, the host suggests that the guest who has a card with the letter A be the first to congratulate the newlyweds, then B, and so on.

Let's wish the young

So that guests do not get tired of toasts and feasts, you can invite them to organize a collective congratulations to the newlyweds, illustrating it with gestures. The presenter announces that his words of congratulations must be accompanied by actions:

  1. if words about love are heard, you need to draw a heart in the air;
  2. if it’s about health, men show off their biceps, and women check and admire them;
  3. if the word “luck” is pronounced, everyone makes the “Okay!” sign;
  4. When we're talking about about happiness - guests send an air kiss to the newlyweds.

For newlyweds - “Who is the boss in the house?”

While the guests are getting to know each other, it’s time for the young spouses to distribute responsibilities around the house. Can choose various options carrying out: use pre-prepared notes with comic duties, such as “throwing a lock of hair from your spouse’s forehead during a quarrel”, “singing songs in the morning on the balcony” and others. You can invite the guests to make a list of responsibilities: let them write them down, and the host will invite the young people to take turns taking notes out of the bag.

Options for props can also be different:

  • small balloons;
  • paper daisy with tear-off petals;
  • a bag or box where the notes rolled into a tube will be placed;
  • a lotto bag, where the role of barrels will be played by containers from “Kinder surprises”: inside them there are notes with responsibilities.

For parents - “Who will be born first?”

The presenter introduces the parents of the newlyweds and talks about the hard way, which they went through while getting the children on their feet. After the parents say their parting words, the presenter asks if they dream of grandchildren and offers to find out who will be born first in a young family - a boy or a girl.

Future grandmothers make up one team, future grandfathers another. Each team is given a head of cabbage. The presenter says that a coin is hidden inside each head of cabbage. If the grandmothers are the first to find her, the first-born of the young family will be a girl, if the team of grandfathers is the first child, a boy will be born.

Future grandparents, on command, “undress” the cabbage to the music. When a bare stalk remains and no one has found the coin, the presenter says: “Dear parents! You’re adults, are you really still looking for children in cabbage?”

Lotteries, quizzes

Lotteries and prize drawings are a traditional part of the wedding party. They suitable for both adults and children. You can attach a token with a number under the seat of a chair or put it under a plate in advance, and during the feast you can hold a comic win-win lottery. You will need to think about prizes for her in advance - prepare them and small poetic descriptions.

Finish the sentence


A popular game is when the presenter invites one person to choose a question or half a phrase at random, and his neighbor to complete it. No one knows which answer option will appear and sound, and such a quiz causes a lot of laughter.

Through the mouth of the people

The presenter says the beginning of the proverb about family life, the guests must finish. For each correct answer - a small prize or token. Then at the end of the game, the one who has the most tokens can be awarded the “Most Smart” medal.

A slightly modified version of the game: before the toast, guests are invited to select and name as many synonyms for the word “drink” as possible. Whoever names the most wins.

Musical

This one of the most popular entertainments during the wedding feast. There can be many options:

  • remember and perform the song according to the first line;
  • who knows more songs starting with a certain letter;
  • who knows more songs in which some kind of paint is named (an excellent option for a “rainbow wedding”, and for any “color” it can be changed: for example, for red - sing songs about everything that has a red color, for blue - everything , which is associated with shades of blue, and so on);
  • who knows more songs with a certain word (for example, “love” - wedding!);
  • and, finally, a traditional competition similar to the television game “Guess the Melody”, when the participant needs to guess the song by 3, 4... 7 notes.


Such music games guests like them, they can be used during a pause when guests are sitting at tables, for example, waiting for hot food. Their main advantage is that both young people and representatives of the older generation, who find it difficult to endure, for example, dance marathons, play with pleasure.
