4 incredible virtual happy hour activity ideas for co-workers

A virtual happy hour is an event where people can meet up online and chat with each other over a video call. This is a great way to connect with your team, clients, or colleagues who may be  on the other side of the world. It also helps remote co-workers build relationships and feel a sense of belonging. The following are 4 incredible virtual happy hour activities for your co-workers, regardless of their location.

Virtual happy hour trivia

Virtual trivia games are a fun and interactive way to build relationships at work and to create exciting moments for teams. There are many types of virtual trivia, with different themes to choose from. Teams can create trivia to have fun, for entertainment, or for a chance to learn new things. They are also a fun way to get to know co-workers and have some friendly competition.

Never Have I Ever

Never Have I Ever is a game that many people play in social settings, and it makes for a great virtual happy hour activity. It is a great icebreaker and an easy way to get to know someone better. The game starts with one person saying “never have I ever...” and then stating something they have never done in their life. The other players then take turns saying “I have” or “I haven’t”, depending on whether or not they have done what is  mentioned. If they haven’t done it, they then receive a point (or take a drink, depending on the rules and setting), and if they have done it before, then the person who asked them receives a point instead.

Name That Song

In Name That Song, the player must guess a song title from an audio clip. The game begins with a set of four cards, each with a lyric from the song. The player chooses one card to play and then listens to an audio clip of the song. If the player guesses correctly, they can continue to play; if not, they are given another card to choose from until they correctly identify the song. This is an excellent virtual happy hour game where teams can discover music lovers, have fun, and build relationships.

Virtual team pursuit

This is a virtual activity where remote workers can compete to solve a series of challenges, including physical, skill, mystery, and mental. Players can compete as individuals or as groups, which works well for large teams. They should be able to earn points for each winning round to serve as motivation and friendly competition for co-workers. Also, teams can design these challenges in a way that teaches remote workers how to collaborate in a virtual environment by covering topics like communication, team dynamics, and group decision-making, among others.
