Virtual Christmas party games for remote teams and families

A practical festive games schedule for people celebrating from different places.

A remote Christmas party works best when it is easy to join and no one needs to prepare a performance. Send an invitation with the time and time zone, a meeting link for conversation, and a note that each player will need a browser device for room games. Let guests know they can listen, pass or take a break.

A 40-minute party plan

  1. Welcome and connect (5 minutes): open your voice or video call, share the room's player invite and help everyone join. Do not share a private paid host link.
  2. Festive quiz (12 minutes): add Quiz Together, choose the Christmas pack and give everyone time to answer. Reveal each answer before moving on.
  3. Drawing round (15 minutes): play Sketch & Guess. The drawer chooses a private word and other players type guesses; do not share the drawer's private screen.
  4. Finish together (8 minutes): play Would You Rather or ask guests to share a favourite winter tradition, with an option to pass.

Make it work for your group

Check that the quiz and drawing packs suit the ages and backgrounds of your guests. Typed drawing guesses are visible in the room and are not automatically moderated; an adult should supervise children's play. If your group has access needs, offer extra reading time and describe visual content over the call.

Free rooms hold up to 8 people including the host. For a larger party, compare the entry limits on the hosting page; test the venue or home connection with a smaller group first.
