7 Ways To Spice Up Your Zoom Trivia
Zoom trivia and Zoom parties are here to stay because of how easy it is to connect with friends, family and coworkers from all across the country. Need some tips on how to spice things up? If you’re thinking about throwing a Zoom trivia party, you’ll want to keep reading, because we have seven tips on how to elevate your next Zoom get-together.
Include Introductions At The Start Of The Event So Everyone Can Meet Each Other
Introductions are a great way to get people talking and to introduce yourself and your message. We’ve run countless Zoom trivia games for businesses and organizations in the past, and introductions help to set the tone for the event and give you a chance to reach a large group with a singular message. Whether the CEO wants to speak for 15 minutes before trivia, or your friends just want to run through introductions during a casual Zoom trivia session, an introduction period is a great way to kick off the event.
Facilitate Icebreakers to Get To Know Your Team Better
Another helpful way to get people talking before the trivia game begins is to run a quick icebreaker for each team. If you’re on a team with co-workers or in-laws that you don’t know all that well, an icebreaker can help to familiarize everyone with one another without awkward small talk. Icebreakers can improve communication amongst the team, making it easier for everyone to participate and share their knowledge when the game begins!
Add Personalized Questions
Tailor your questions to your group for some added fun. You can quiz them on the history of your organization or a shared interest or connection. People will be more engaged if they can relate to the questions in some way, so find a way to personalize the questions a bit, or you can outsource that process to the team at Bar None Games!
Not Feeling Creative? Chose A Topic And Have a Trivia Company Customize It For You
As we mentioned above, we’d be more than happy to build a trivia game from the ground up for your organization. Let us know what your trivia preferences are, and we will do the rest. We also have a wide variety of offerings, so if you’d like to plan your trivia game around a specific holiday like Halloween or Christmas, or a favorite television show like The Office, we can do just that. We also offer trivia packages for D&I Holidays such as Pride Month, Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, so we can find a trivia game that is perfect and relevant for your business or organization.
Pair Your Game of Trivia With Food Or Drinks
Every party is better with yummy snacks and refreshing beverages. Pair your trivia game with some food and drinks so that your guests can at least leave with a full belly if they can’t be crowned trivia champions. And again, if this is something you don’t want to deal with, we offer catering packages to fit any situation and budget.
Pick Out Teams Beforehand
We’ve found that trivia tends to work best when people are together in small teams, and you can make that process more enjoyable by splitting up teams in advance so people know who they’ll be paired with. This way they can all wear the same colors or dress up as a team when trivia day arrives. Teams will have more camaraderie and can get in the spirit of the event if they know whom they’ll be working with in advance and can plan accordingly. Even consider giving out a prize for the best or most creatively dressed teams!
Choose Different Topics For Each Trivia Game
General trivia can reach a wider base, but it’s always fun to have a category or game that is designed around a specific theme or topic. Run a trivia game about 80s music or the NFL if the Super Bowl is coming up soon. Vary your topics and find a theme, and your guests will have more fun when they get a category that’s in their wheelhouse!
