Virtual Christmas Party Games for Zoom and Teams
A video call holiday party needs games that are quick to explain and easy to follow on a screen. These ten virtual Christmas party games work on Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet, and need no special software for your guests.
10 virtual Christmas game ideas
- Christmas Family Feud style game: share your screen with the game board and let teams answer by voice while the host reveals each answer.
- Christmas trivia with breakout rooms: send teams to separate rooms to discuss and report back.
- Virtual Christmas bingo: send cards by email or chat and let guests mark squares as items are called.
- Christmas scavenger hunt: call out items to find at home, such as something red, a Christmas mug or a wrapped gift.
- Ugly sweater contest: everyone shows their outfit and votes in the chat.

Tips for hosting on video
Test your screen share before the party and keep the sound off for background music until the game starts. Ask people to mute when not speaking, split into teams of three or four, and choose one speaker per team to avoid everyone talking at once.
Plan for 45 minutes at most, and finish while people are still having fun.
