For convenience, we have divided 13 ideas into groups.

Competitions for guests

1. Impromptu “Welcome Guests”

The host asks what the guests wish for the young intangible values.

3. Flash mob of love

During the dance break, guests are invited to make a flash mob for the young people. To a cheerful, rhythmic melody, tell the love story of the newlyweds in dance. The presenter shows and rehearses the movements - first without music, then with it. The young people are shown an already rehearsed number.

Movements:

• Went- rhythmically step from foot to foot.
• Saw– hold your palms clenched into a fist with your index and middle fingers extended (“V” gesture) in front of your eyes.
• Fell in love– draw a heart with your hands.
• My head is spinning with happiness – turns around an axis with arms extended upward: first in one direction, then in the other.
• Started to soar on the wings of love - the same thing, just swing your arms like wings.
• Made an offer – put your hands to your heart and spread them to the side: to the heart – to the left side – to the heart – to the right side.
• She agreed– bend your elbows, move up and down, simultaneously turning in one direction or the other.
• Air kisses to the young.

Repeat movements 4-8 times. You can “tell” the story 2-3 times in a row, but reduce the number of repetitions.

1. Educated couples must tie their ribbon to what they consider to be the more attractive part of their partner’s body.
2. All couples become a semicircle - facing the young people. Excerpts from songs are played (20-30 seconds), in which one of the colors of the rainbow is mentioned. Participants with the same color ribbons come forward and dance. The most active dancing part of the body should be the one on which the ribbon is tied.

6. Spy at a wedding

Participants are called who, after the question “who considers themselves sober?” raised their hands. They take turns blowing into the “tubes.” After each time, the “breathalyzer” comment is voiced.

Table and outdoor games and competitions for adults' birthdays can be funny and varied. The birthday boy and guests will play with the same passion as children. Don't believe me? Then offer them the following fun options.

Each guest is given pens and notepads. They write on them the name of the gift they would like to give to the birthday boy if they had a magic wand. Gifts can be both tangible and intangible. Each note is signed. Notes with tasks are placed in the second bag.

The presenter approaches the birthday boy and invites him to choose one note from each bag. First, he reads what gift they wanted to give him. Then the presenter says: “You will certainly have this one if the author of the note completes the task.” The birthday person reads out what task the author of the note must complete. After completing the task, the birthday person draws the next note, etc.

"Trick"

A cool and funny competition for adults' birthdays, which can be held at a table or held in the center of the hall. The presenter announces a competition for the best reader. Poems or stories are distributed to everyone who wishes. The guests prepare, and then read them out one by one, trying to do it as expressively as possible. At the end, the presenter announces the winner. But! The one with the biggest fist, the thinnest wrist, or the longest hair becomes the winner. Here you can dream up. The competition ends unexpectedly. But such an ending greatly amuses the guests and evokes a lot of positive emotions. All guests who practiced reading will receive incentive prizes.

"Don't Spill"

Each participant is given one straw and two glasses. 1 glass is filled with water. The participants' task is to pour liquid from one glass to another using only a straw. The winner of this fun drinking contest for adults' birthdays is the one who pours the most water. By the way, instead of water, you can take something stronger. At the same time, you can train your willpower!

"Guess who"

The host sits the birthday boy on a chair and blindfolds him. Guests come up to him one by one and shake his hand. The birthday boy must guess who it was. If the birthday boy is a man, you can suggest that girls and women kiss him on the cheek in turn, and he determines which kiss was from his other half. A similar competition is held with the woman on her birthday. This option is suitable only for not very jealous couples, so that the competition does not end sadly.

"Spell by letter"

The presenter distributes pens and pieces of paper to those who wish. The participants’ task is to compose the largest number of words from the letters of the name of the main hero of the occasion. The winner is determined by counting.

You can name new words one by one. If one participant named the word, then the second no longer has the right to repeat it. This way, only new words are counted. This funny table competition for adults' birthdays can be held not only at the table, but also on stage. Options can be varied according to the wishes of the guests.

"Pantomime"

Everyone loves this game. She will appeal to any company, regardless of gender, age and social status. The essence of the game is to guess the character or object that the person in the center is wishing for. The one who guessed goes to the center, the previous participant guesses a word for him. The game repeats itself again. You can play endlessly, there are no winners or losers here.

It can be offered to guests at the end of the evening, when everyone is a little tired. The pantomime can “take away” a sad mood and fatigue with one’s hand. Children will also be happy to participate in this funny table competition for adults' birthdays. Adults will only be amazed at their ingenuity and intelligence.

"Show the country"

This funny table competition for adults' birthdays is great for groups that don't like jumping, running and screaming, but just gather at home around a large table. The presenter puts notes with the names of countries in a box. Each participant takes out a note, reads the country written on it, and tries to depict it. You can show the flag, characteristic features, favorite dishes, landmarks of countries. Anything to make sure the guests guess the hidden country as quickly as possible.

"Burn everything with blue flame"

Each participant is given a box of matches with an equal number of matches. The task is to burn the contents of the boxes as quickly as possible. Matches can only be burned one at a time.

"Autobiography"

From 5 to 10 people can participate in the competition. The presenter first comes up with several names for the participants. All of them must belong to famous characters. For example: Snow Maiden, Princess Nesmeyana, Emelya, Carlson, etc. Contestants draw notes with names. In 10 minutes they need to come up with a character biography and tell it to the guests. This must be done in such a way that guests do not immediately guess who we are talking about. The winner is the one who lasted the intrigue the longest. This funny table competition for adults' birthdays will be an excellent alternative to the usual riddles.

"Jelly"

Participants in the competition receive a toothpick and a plate with a small portion of jelly. At the command of the presenter, the contestants begin to eat jelly. The one who eats the most in a specified amount of time wins. The winner receives a prize. All other participants are given spoons so that they can finish their portion of jelly.

"Magnet"

Participants are given magnets (the larger they are, the better). The goal is to collect as many metal objects as possible using magnets. Metal objects are laid out in advance by the presenter and organizer in the hall, in secret places. To make the competition more interesting, the places where metal objects are hidden can be marked on the map. The result will be a kind of “treasure hunt”. The winner is determined by counting the metal objects.

"2 truths and 1 lie"

This funny table competition for adults' birthdays does not require preparation, so you can even do it outdoors. Such a competition is great and fun in companies where people don’t know each other very well. Each guest names 3 facts about himself. 2 of them must be true, and the third must be false. The task of the other guests is to recognize a false fact. You can do this by voting. If the guests did not guess correctly, the player receives a prize. You can write facts about yourself on pieces of paper in advance. The presenter will take turns taking out notes and reading them out.

"The owner of the most sensitive butt"

In addition, you need to select several objects that can be recognized using the “soft spot”. It could be a plastic bottle, a book, vegetables, a spoon. Do not use fragile objects or objects with sharp edges. Guests are blindfolded, placed on a chair with any object and helped to sit down. If the participant correctly identified the object, he is awarded 1 point.

The winner is the one who scores the most points. He is awarded the title of having the most sensitive butt. By the way, this funny table competition for adults’ birthdays must be filmed in order to have a good laugh again.

"Modern Fairy Tale"

"Broken phone"

The more people take part in the game, the more fun it will be. The presenter thinks of a word and whispers it in the ear of the first participant. Each participant must convey the word as quietly as possible. The last participant voices the word in the form in which it came to him.

"Not really"

An excellent and funny table competition for adults' birthdays in the question-and-answer style. The presenter writes the names of animals and characters on pieces of paper in advance. Guests must guess who it is by asking questions. The presenter can only answer “Yes” or “No” to questions. The participant who guesses the animal or character receives a card with its name or corresponding picture. The one who collects the most cards wins. It will be even more fun if you write the names of objects on pieces of paper. These can be household appliances, items of women's or men's clothing, toys, toiletries, cosmetics, etc.

"Chipmunk Speaker"

Guests are divided into pairs. The presenter gives one participant a note with text and nuts that he needs to put in his mouth. The second participant is given paper and pen. Its task is to recognize the text and write it down as accurately as possible. The winner is the couple who was able to quickly and accurately convey the text to their partner.

"The Most Interesting Story"

The presenter calls the phrase with which the story begins. It should be funny and make it easy to come up with an interesting continuation. For example: “One day... mushrooms grew in my mouth...”. The next participant must come up with the next phrase, etc. There are no winners or losers in this game. While making up a story, guests will have a good laugh and cheer up.

Game "Panic"

The game does not require additional details, so you can play it in any company. The guests split into pairs. You can do this at will, but it is much more interesting if the pairs are determined by lot. The facilitator gives the pairs small pieces of paper and pens. Participants write on pieces of paper any word that can come to their mind. You can write not just 1, but several words at once. The main condition for writing words is that they must be nouns and real.

The notes are put into a bag and mixed. The presenter approaches the teams one by one and invites one of the participants to pull out a note with a word. His task is to explain the word to another team member. And he must do it as quickly as possible. The maximum guessing time is 20 seconds. If the word was guessed, the note remains in the team’s piggy bank. You can immediately take out the next note with the word. The team that collects the most notes with words wins.

"Sweet Tooth Drum"

It is necessary to prepare for this competition in advance, since it will require a lot of candies. Sweets and lollipops are given to each guest. After the candy is in the mouth, participants need to say the phrase: “Sweet Tooth Drum.” Moreover, this must be done clearly and expressively. Of course, this will not be easy, but the winner will receive a prize, so the participants will have to try hard. If all participants said the phrase more or less clearly, then one more candy is added to each. The amount of sweets can be gradually increased.

3 oversized men are invited to participate in the competition. The presenter arranges them so that they are at the same distance from each other. The task of the “heroes” is to find their woman in the crowd and bring her to the start. It is necessary to ensure in advance that men whose other half is also present at the celebration participate in the competition. The winner is appointed the main hero and receives a prize.

"Buttons and mittens"

A number of people participate in the competition in pairs. Participants are divided into pairs and stand opposite each other. The presenter gives one a shirt with a lot of buttons, and the second one - mittens. The task is to fasten the buttons on the shirt as quickly as possible.

"Catch the Candy"

The number of people is unlimited. Each participant is given a hat, to which a candy is attached to the back on a string. The contestants' task is to catch the candy and eat it as quickly as possible.

When a good company gathers around the table, the party promises to be fun!

But the guests drank and ate... talked about the latest news from the lives of their loved ones and the country as a whole... danced... and some prepared to be bored... But that was not the case!

Good hosts always have something in stock that will not only relieve boredom, but will also bring the guests of the holiday closer together, and will also be remembered by everyone for a long time with fun and humor - these are, of course, various competitions.

They are very different:

• movable (with and without objects),
• musical,
• drawing,
• verbal, etc.

Today I will introduce you to those that can be carried out without leaving the table.

NOTE! They can be performed in different versions, change the rules, add items, increase or decrease the number of participants - in a word, take a creative approach to drawing up a program of fun and amusing table competitions for an adult company sitting at the table.

Let's start with the simple - what's at hand (literally and figuratively!)

"The alphabet is near us"

The presenter names any letter of the alphabet, except for the four Y-Y-L-Ъ (you can agree to exclude the letter E).

Players playing in a circle name objects - products - things starting with this letter, which are located directly next to them and which can be reached with their hand or touched.

Option! - add adjectives to the list of nouns: B - incomparable salad, incomparable lipstick (from a neighbor), endless pasta, C - nice vinaigrette, sugar cake...

The game continues until the words are exhausted. The last one to call wins.

Here's another game with letters.

"Burim in order"

Starting with the first letter of the alphabet, the players come up with a mini-congratulation (depending on the occasion of those gathered) or simply sentences that are appropriate for this holiday.

The phrase should begin first with the letter A, the next one with B, then C, and so on. It is advisable to come up with funny phrases like:

- How great it is that we have gathered today!
- It happened that...
- That's …
- Gentlemen...

Attention! What is important here is the sequence of letters in the alphabet and the meaning of the invented sentences. It is clear that some letters (ь-ъ-ы) are skipped.

The winner is the one who came up with the funniest phrase. Decided by unanimous vote.

There was the ABC - it was up to the poetry!

“Tell me what’s in the package!”

If there are people at the table who can write poetry (the level of poetry, of course, will be taken into account, but the main thing here is different), then offer the next competition.

Several poetry masters are given an object, which is packed in an opaque fabric box-bag. They should quietly look at what they got and write a poem about the item. Guests listen and guess.

Important! You cannot name what is hidden, you can only poetically describe its purpose, appearance...

The writer of the longest and most original piece wins.

Everyone loves fairy tales!

"Modern fairy tale"

Equipment: sheets of paper, pens.

The players are divided into two teams. Usually they are divided according to the “we sit next to each other” principle. Each chooses (option: the driver assigns) a profession. For example, cooks and truck drivers.

After 5-7 minutes of preparation, the teams must voice any fairy tale they have chosen (option assigned by the leader) in a modern way, using professional vocabulary and terminology.

For example, the fairy tale of a brave cook begins with the words: “Once upon a time my grandmother had a piece of ham worth two and a half kilos...” We advise the program creator to come up with starting phrases in advance for the different professions of the participants.

Everyone has fun! The winning team receives a prize: sweets, a bottle of champagne for everyone...

Try this too! It is not teams who play, but individual participants. Then more time is given for preparation, and it will be easier for the guests to select the winner.

Everyone’s favorite since childhood, “Broken Phone”

Here, the more people, the better.

The driver (or the first person sitting) thinks of a word (phrase), writes it on a piece of paper (for the purity of the experiment!))) and passes it along the chain, whispering in each other’s ears.

Everyone remembers that you need to whisper quietly and as close as possible to what you heard. The latter speaks the word out loud.

The funny thing begins at the moment when, if there is a mismatch between the input and output, a “showdown” begins - at what stage, for whom what went wrong.

Robot YES-NO

The host prepares cards with the names of the animals in advance and announces that the guests will guess them by asking any questions that he can answer only with the words YES-NO (in extreme cases, “I can’t say”).

The game continues until the animal is guessed and the presenter shows a card with the correct answer.

Questions can be about hair (short or long), about legs, about whether there is a tail (fluffy or smooth), about claws, a neck, about what it eats, where it sleeps, and so on.

Game option! It is not the animal that is being riddled, but the object. Then the questions will be about size, color, appearance, purpose, presence in the house or on the street, ability to pick it up, presence of numbers, presence of electricity in it...

Another version of the game is frivolous. You can wish for items from men's or women's wardrobes, underwear, or for the most daring, from the assortment of adult stores.

Competitions with paper

And here’s another game where the funniest thing is the mismatch.

Chipmunk Speaker

Props:

• nuts (or orange, or bread),
• paper,
• pen.

Those sitting at the table are divided into pairs: “speaker” and “stenographer”.

The “speaker” puts nuts (orange slices, a piece of bread) behind his cheeks so that it is difficult to speak. He is given a text (poetry or prose), which he needs to pronounce as clearly as possible (as far as the contents of the “cheek pouches” allow). The “stenographer” is trying to write down, as he understands, what he heard. Then they compare it with the “source”.

The winner is the couple whose “transcript” is the most correct.

Option! One “speaker” is selected, and everyone is recorded.

"Explain in 30 seconds"

• pens/pencils according to the number of players,
• small pieces of paper
• box/bag/hat.

We play like this:

1. Guests are divided into pairs. It can be by lot, it can be at will, it can be next door at the table. Each pair is a team.
2. Players receive pens/pencils and pieces of paper (each has several of them - 15-20).
3. Everyone writes 15-20 (discuss this in advance with the players) of any nouns that come to mind: on one piece of paper - one noun.
4. Leaves with words are hidden in a box/bag/hat.
5. First, the first pair-team plays: they take turns taking out sheets of words and must explain to each other the word that they came across, but in no case naming the noun itself.

For example, the word “cart” is a horse-drawn carriage, “frying pan” is a pancake maker.

After the first word is guessed, you can take out a piece of paper with another.

You have 30 seconds to do everything. You can agree on a minute - depending on the state of the company)))

The number of words a team guesses is how many points it will receive.

Then the turn passes to the other pair of players.

The time limit makes this competition spectacular, loud, noisy and fun!

The team that guesses the most words wins.

Fun table competitions with answers

Prepare: a box containing pieces of paper with various questions written on it.

Attention! In winter they can be made in the form of snowflakes, in summer in the form of apples, in autumn in the form of colored leaves, in spring they can be flowers.

We play like this:

Everyone takes turns pulling out paper pieces of paper with questions and answering them not only as truthfully as possible, but also funny.

Questions could be:

• What was your favorite toy as a child?
• What was your most memorable vacation?
• Have your New Year's wishes ever come true?
• What's the funniest thing that happened to you in childhood that you remember?
• What's the funniest purchase you've ever made?
• If you have an animal at home, what funny incident can you remember (what did it eat)?
• What did you dream about as a child and did it come true?
• What's the funniest prank you can remember?
• Do you love your housemates and why?

Questions for the story can be very different, taking into account the degree of frankness of the company.

The winner is the one whose story pleases the most guests.

Are you asking? I answer!

Let's prepare:

• cards with questions,
• answer cards,
• 2 boxes.

We play like this.

One box contains questions, the other contains answers.

The players sit down, if possible, alternating: man-woman-man-woman... This will make the answers more interesting!

The first player takes out a card with a question and reads it aloud to his neighbor at the table.

He takes, without looking into the box, the sheet with the answer and also reads it out.

Sometimes the question-answer coincidences are very funny)))

Questions could be like this (assuming that the company is close and everything is on a first-name basis):

Two truths and a lie

This fun competition at the table for an adult company does not require any preparation. Best suited for a company where the participants do not know each other very well.

Each player must say three statements or facts about themselves. Two true, one false. Listeners vote to decide which one is false. If they guess correctly, the player (the liar) wins nothing. If you guess wrong, you receive a small prize.

Variant of this: everyone writes down their statements on pieces of paper, marking the false ones, give them to the presenter (the host of the party), and he reads them out in turn.

One more?

Several competitions for a drinking group that wants to become even more drunk.

Find the crocodile

This game can be played during other games, as an additional one. It essentially lasts the whole evening, but at the very beginning you need to tell the guests its rules.

At some point in the party, the host secretly gives one of the guests (the “hunter”) a clothespin (crocodile) and he must attach it discreetly to the clothes of a “victim” he has arbitrarily chosen (or put it in a lady’s purse or a man’s jacket pocket). Then he gives a sign to the leader that the task is completed.

As soon as the clothespin has found a new owner, the presenter says, “The crocodile has escaped!” Who did he get into? and starts counting out loud from 10 to one. Guests are looking to see if they are the target of a prank.

If, within 10 seconds of the countdown, the “victim” finds a lurking “crocodile hidden in a bag or clinging to his collar,” the “hunter” drinks the penalty glass. If he doesn’t find it, the “victim” must drink.

You can limit the search area (the crocodile only clings to clothing) or give it more time.

Drinking alphabet chain

To conduct the competition you need: glasses with your favorite drinks, memory for names and knowledge of the alphabet.

The game goes in circles. The first player names the celebrity's first and last name. The next person must also name a celebrity whose name begins with the first letter of the previous one.

To make it clearer, look at the example:

The first player makes a wish for Cameron Diaz. The second by Dmitry Kharatyan. Third Hugh Grant. The fourth is by Georgy Vitsin. And so on.

You can name any famous people, politicians, actors, athletes. A player who cannot find the correct name within 5 seconds (approximately) must drink his glass. Then the glass is filled, and the turn passes to the next player.

The longer the game lasts, the more difficult it is to select new names (you cannot repeat yourself), the fun and company are rapidly gaining degrees.

Insert your two cents

The organizer of the competition needs to prepare sheets with phrases that are far from the theme of the feast or birthday. Give each guest a card with a phrase at the very beginning of the party.

Phrases could be:

The task of each participant is to insert “their” phrase into the conversation so that others do not understand that this is a phrase from a piece of paper. After the player has said his phrase, he needs to wait a minute, after which he says “Win!!!” During this time, any other guest who, during the conversation, suspects that a phrase from the sheet was uttered can try to incriminate the player. He must repeat the phrase that he thinks was used. Of course, there is a chance that he will not guess correctly.

If the accuser makes a mistake, he drinks a “penalty glass.” If you guess correctly, then a penalty kick is awarded to the person who was caught using the phrase from the sheet.

Guess the brand

If the company name is included in the slogan, then you can shorten it. For example: Who goes where, and I (to Sberkassa). This slogan is included in the retro section of our list. In a young company, you can at least invite guests to guess whose advertising slogan it might be. You can come up with hints or several possible answers.

For example: Who goes where, and I... (at VDNKh, to Moskvoshway, to get married, to Sberbank).

Find your soul mate

If the company is about half women and men, then you can play this game. Although, it will fit, with some degree of conditionality, in other cases.

To do this, you need to prepare small cards in advance on which to write the names of famous couples. One name per card. For example:

• Romeo and Juliet;
• Alla Pugacheva and Maxim Galkin;
• Dolphin and mermaid;
• Twix stick and Twix stick;
• Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt...

Each guest receives a card with a name - this is his “image”.

Task: everyone must find their soul mate by asking the other guests in turn questions that can only be answered “yes” or “no.” Direct questions like “Is your name Angelina?” or “are you Brad’s wife”? prohibited. Questions like “Do you have children with your significant other?” are allowed; “Are you and your significant other married?”; “Do you and your significant other live in...?”

Those who find their soul mate by asking the minimum number of questions win. The more cards of pairs you prepare, the better. Since only half of the guests will play in the first round (when they find their soul mate, they are deprived of the opportunity to look for theirs). Therefore, after the first round, new cards are dealt and the second round begins.

Option: in the first circle they are looking for a woman's soul mate, in the second - men.

Do you have..?

This game is suitable for a large company and for celebrating a variety of holidays.

The company is divided into two teams with an equal number of participants. We must try to have the same number of women in each.

The presenter, starting with the words “Do you have...?”, reads out the list of things you are looking for. Members of each team need to find this thing and show it to the leader.

Team members search in pockets and purses, those who find them show the item they are looking for, the team receives a point for each item found. For one named item, the team gets only one point (no matter how many five thousand dollar bills the team members have, the team can only get one point for the item with the bill).

So, do you have...?

• 5000 ruble banknote;
• Notebook;
• photo of the child;
• mint chewing gum;
• candy;
• pencil;
• keychain with at least 7 keys;
• penknife;
• 7 (or 5) credit cards per person;
• small change in the amount of at least 95 rubles (for one person);
• hand cream;
• flash drive;
• nail polish;
• shoe sponge...

The list of things can be supplemented at will.

Play and have fun with your guests at the festive table!

Don’t forget that each competition can be creatively reworked to suit your company.

Let your friends remember this day not only for the most delicious dishes, but also for the funniest and coolest competitions.

Eat! Drink! And don't be bored!

Who said adults don't like to have fun like little children? Should a birthday necessarily be celebrated at a large table and accompanied by boring gatherings, at which some fairly drunk guests will want to indulge in boring memories and singing the same songs of youth? Stop! Get only pleasure and positive emotions from the holiday. Frolic and have as much fun as you want, because such a significant date comes only once a year. And in order to properly tune in to the upcoming festive atmosphere, prepare cool toasts, funny congratulations in advance and don’t forget that you can arrange funny birthday contests. And we will definitely help you with this!

"Gentleman"

Several couples (boy-girl) are invited for this competition. The leader in the hall sets the boundaries (this will be a river). After this, a competition called “Gentleman” is announced. The guy must carry the girl across the river in various poses. The number of poses is decided by the presenter or the birthday boy. The one who shows the most intelligence wins.

"Convey your feeling"

Cool and funny blindfolded birthday contests will always amuse everyone present. So, you need to invite 5 players to participate. Each of them should be seated on a chair. All but one must be blindfolded. The host must approach the hero of the occasion and whisper in his ear the names of several feelings, for example, fear, pain, love, horror, passion, etc. The birthday boy must choose one of them and whisper it into the player’s ear with his eyes open. He, in turn, must show this feeling tactilely to the second, sitting on a chair blindfolded. The second to the third, etc. The very last participant must say out loud what feeling the birthday boy wished for. Such funny birthday contests are suitable for corporate events and weddings.

"Understand me"

For this competition, you should prepare a small tangerine (so that it can fit in the player’s mouth) and cards with difficult to pronounce words. The participant must place the fruit in his mouth and thus read out what is written on the cards. Guests must guess what the “unfortunate” person says. Whoever guessed the most words wins.

"The Power of Touch"

Like many funny birthday contests for adults, the game called "The Power of Touch" is played while blindfolded. So, several girls should be seated on chairs. One young man is invited to participate and must be blindfolded and have his hands tied. Thus, the player must determine who the girl is without using his hands. This can be done in any way - rubbing your cheek, touching your nose, kissing, sniffing, etc.

"Real Boxers"

Funny, cheerful, interesting birthday contests will definitely appeal to everyone without exception, if more guests are involved in them. So, the presenter should prepare boxing gloves. Two young people are invited to participate, preferably stronger and larger. For the sake of appearance, you can also use hearts.

The leader needs to put boxing gloves on the knights. Guests should come up and encourage each boxer, stretch his shoulders, muscles, in general, everything, just like before a real fighting match. The presenter’s task is to remind the main rules: “Do not hit below the belt,” “Do not push,” “Do not swear,” “Fight until first blood,” etc. After this, the presenter distributes candy to the participants, preferably a small one, and announces a competition. The one of the “fighters” who frees the sweet from the wrapper the fastest will win. Similar competitions are suitable for children and adults.

“Treasured... bang!”

You can invite several people to participate in this competition. To make funny birthday contests please more guests, divide the participants into teams. So, the presenter must prepare balloons, pushpins, tape (optionally, adhesive tape) and thread. Each participant is given a ball, the thread of which must be tied around the waist so that the ball hangs at the level of the buttocks. The other players need to be given a piece of adhesive tape through which the button is pierced, and stick it on each of their foreheads (with the point outward, of course). The presenter turns on the music. Participants who have a button on their forehead have their hands tied so that they cannot use them. The players' task is to burst the ball using a button. The team that does this faster will win.

"Let's congratulate everyone together"

When the guests are pretty busy and having fun, you can take a little break. An excellent option in this case would be birthday competitions at the table. No, there will be no songs or intellectual games, only entertainment and laughter. So, for this competition, the presenter must prepare a short text of congratulations, in which all adjectives must be excluded (in the text, in place of adjectives, a large indent must be left in advance).

Here is a short excerpt for example: “... guests! Today we have gathered at this ..., ... and ... evening to congratulate our ..., ... and ... birthday boy.”

The host must say that he has serious problems with inserting adjectives into the congratulatory text, and that the guests are simply obliged to help him out, otherwise the holiday will be over. The participants, in turn, must pronounce any adjectives that first come to their minds, and the presenter must write them down.

If you want these funny birthday contests to amuse everyone even more, make the task more difficult. Ask guests to pronounce adjectives related to, for example, medical, legal, erotic topics.

"Rich Cavalier"

What other games and competitions are suitable? Your birthday will be just wonderful if you use various paraphernalia in competitions. So, the presenter should prepare 30 bills in advance. To participate, you must invite 3 couples (boy-girl). Each girl is given 10 bills. The presenter turns on the music. Girls should put money in their boyfriend's pockets (and not only in his pockets). When the entire stash is hidden, the “satisfied liar” must perform a dance (while her eyes must be blindfolded). When the girls have danced enough, the music turns off. Now the ladies must find the entire stash.

The catch is that while the girls are trying to dance, the insidious presenter changes the gentlemen.

"Eastern dance"

What other birthday contests can you prepare? Funny and cheerful are undoubtedly associated with dancing.

So, the presenter invites all girls present to participate. Each of them must loudly announce to the audience which part of the body suits her most about herself. For example, one says shoulders, another says knees, a third lips, etc. Then the presenter turns on beautiful oriental music and asks each one to dance in turn with the part of the body that she just named.

"Guess the color"

The presenter invites a certain number of people (you can at least all those present) and puts them in a circle. The music turns on. The presenter shouts: “Touch the blue!” Everyone must find clothes of the appropriate color for each other. With each round, those who are late or do not find are eliminated from the competition.

“Where are you, my love?”

For this competition you will need one participant (male) and 5-6 girls. One of them must be his wife. So, the girls need to be seated on chairs. The main player is blindfolded and asked to use his legs to determine which of them is his favorite. To make it more colorful, you can add two or three guys to the girls.

"Labyrinth"

One player is invited to participate. The leader needs to prepare a long rope in advance. The player is blindfolded and invited to go through the maze (on a rope). Guests must prompt the player in which direction he should follow. Naturally, the treacherous presenter is simply obliged to remove the rope, while the guests will laugh heartily at how the participant carefully follows their instructions.

"Slow Action"

The presenter should prepare in advance as many cards as there are participants in the competition. You should write phrases on them like: “kill a fly”, “drink a glass of vodka”, “eat a lemon”, “kiss”. Each participant, without looking, takes out a card, for example, from a hat or basket. Players take turns, in slow motion, to depict what is written on the card. Believe me, only such birthday contests can make guests laugh and amuse them from the bottom of their hearts. Contests and games designed exactly like this can easily defuse a boring atmosphere.

Competition for the birthday boy

In order for the birthday to be a success, it is necessary to involve more of the hero of the occasion in competitions. It would be great if you could make some kind of interesting game out of the banal presentation of gifts. To do this, the presenter should prepare several small paper cards in advance, which will indicate guidelines for finding gifts.

"Greedy"

For this competition you will need inflated balloons. The presenter needs to scatter them on the floor. Participants must collect as many balls as they can in their hands. The most greedy one wins.

"Dress Me"

For this competition you will need men's and women's clothing. It can be anything, from socks to family underpants. Men's clothing is placed in one bag or package, and women's clothing in the other. Two people are invited to participate (preferably a man and a woman) and 4 more assistants (two each). The presenter distributes packages to the teams. It will be funnier if a man comes across a bag with women's clothes, and a woman with men's clothes. So, the presenter gives a signal and notes the time (1 minute). The assistants must take out the contents of the package and dress the main participants. Whoever does it faster wins.

“Take me to work!”

5 people are invited to participate in this competition. The presenter must prepare the costumes of fairy-tale characters in advance. You don’t have to rent them from the nearest salon, you can do everything yourself, believe me, it will be much funnier. So, the presenter announces the interview. For example, in order for participants to get to work, they should dress up as written in the dress code rules. The rules, naturally, must be prepared by the presenter in advance and hidden in the hat. Participants, without looking, take out a card and dress as it is written there. After this, they go out into the hall and pityingly ask, for example, the birthday person (let him be the employer) to hire them. Believe me, a man with a cowboy hat, with a mop sticking out between his legs (like a cowboy), pitifully asking to be accepted for a position, will cause a storm of positive emotions among all the guests present.

"The most dexterous"

To participate in this competition you must use 5 pairs. Women should be seated on chairs. Opposite each one, make a path of bottles. Men must remember their location and, with their eyes closed, without dropping a single bottle, make their way to their missus and kiss her. The cunning presenter, naturally, arranges the bottles as he likes and switches the places of the girls.

We hope that you will not have any more problems with funny competitions. Have a nice and fun time!

It's no secret that celebrating a birthday in a large and cheerful company is always more interesting. The feast usually begins with congratulatory words addressed to the birthday boy, toasts, then everyone begins to eat, and after that the celebration turns into dancing. But, however, in the end, guests may get bored. To prevent this from happening, it is not at all necessary to invite a toastmaster to the celebration; you can do it on your own by preparing home competitions in advance. In our article we will look at what competitions for adults’ birthdays may be of interest to absolutely everyone.

Seated competitions

At the very beginning of the holiday, you can cheer up your invited friends and family by organizing small competitions without even leaving the table.

"Reading thoughts out loud"

This competition is probably familiar to many; it is often played at weddings and anniversaries. Its essence is as follows: the main hero of the occasion or his assistants from friends prepare in advance cuts from songs known to everyone; a headdress is also required. It's best if it's a wide hat. Then one of the guests walks along the others, putting a hat on his head, at this moment the music turns on. Thus, the hat “tells” others about the thoughts of the person sitting. A very funny competition.

"Guess the picture"

This competition is suitable at the very beginning of the celebration, when guests are still able to think logically. A small picture is being prepared, the plot of which is familiar to everyone (best of all, something from the classics). Next, prepare a larger sheet and cut out a small circle in it. Anyone who wants to conduct this competition goes to the picture and moves the sheet along it, one by one revealing fragments of the picture. Whoever guessed the picture is well done!

Funny game

The essence of the game is quite simple - you need to use a funny syllable “ha” or “hee”. The guests’ task is to pronounce it with a very serious look, without laughing. Each subsequent player adds a new “ha” or “hi” to the previous chain. If someone starts laughing, the game is reset. It won't be easy to stop laughing.

Dance competitions

Once the guests have had fun and eaten, they can dance.

Dance "train"

Prepare fun, upbeat music in advance. Guests stand in the “train”, and the host commands where in this chain people place their hands in front of the person standing - it can be shoulders, waist, hips, heels, anything. At the command of the leader, the hands move to a new place, and the guests continue to dance. Those who can dance in any position without detaching from their “car” will win.

"Dance with your body"

A very funny game in which participants are divided into pairs. Each of them, at the command of the leader, dances with the part of the body that the leader names. For example, feet, hands, cheeks, backs of heads and others. The pair that practically doesn't get lost will win. You can complicate the competition by adding balls to it. Dancing with balls is much more difficult and funnier.

"Dance like me"

This competition will awaken dance talent even in those who had no idea about it. All guests stand in a circle, and the one chosen by the majority stands in the middle. He will be the main dancer. The task is as follows: to the music, all guests repeat the movements of the one in the circle. The music changes, the dance changes, then another is chosen as the main dancer. The main thing is to choose interesting musical accompaniments that are as different in sound as possible.

Creative competitions

From dancing we move on to creativity.

"The Jolly Tailor"

For this competition you need a thread. Guests are divided into two teams: men and women, each of which selects a captain. It will be he who will need to “stitch” everyone together. To do this, the female captain “sews” everyone together with thread, threading it through sleeves, hairpins and anything else the thread can get caught on. The male captain does the same among the men, “sewing” them according to the elements of clothing. Whichever team completes everything the fastest wins.

Forfeit

Many people have known this game since their youth; for an adult company it has not lost its relevance. All guests give some personal item to the host, and he puts what was given into a container. It shouldn't show through. Next, one person is selected who will sit with his back to the presenter and, with his eyes closed, take out the “forfeits,” that is, someone’s thing. After this, he comes up with some task for the owner of the thing. Each task should be new; to make it more fun, it is better not to repeat them. Such a game can keep everyone present for a long time.

Crocodile

A very fun and creative game for adults. Two people are selected, one of whom thinks of a specific animal (it can be not only an animal, but any inanimate object). Then the second person comes out, stands in front of everyone and, without words, depicts the wish. The one who guesses becomes the next “crocodile” and shows a new scene.

Notes

The guests are sitting at the table. The presenter chooses a specific topic, for example, movie characters, cartoon characters or any other. Each of the guests comes up with a word and attaches a note to the forehead of the person sitting next to him so that he does not see what is written. Then, in a circle, the person sitting next to you, using questions to which the answers can only be “yes” and “no,” tries to guess what is written on his forehead.

Such competitions for adults' birthdays will help the entire large company get to know each other better and get to know each other faster. Finally, a few tips on preparing games:

1. Try to involve as many people as possible, then the guests will not feel deprived of the birthday person’s attention;
2. It is better to prepare details for competitions in advance;
3. There should be enough space for competitions, especially moving ones;
4. Think over the musical material;
5. Stock up on small souvenirs for winners and losers.

It’s not so difficult to please your guests with interesting entertainment; the main thing is the birthday person’s desire to create a festive and friendly atmosphere. Your loved ones and friends will remember this birthday for a long time.
