How to Throw a Virtual Christmas Event and Bring Christmas to Your Screen?

As the holidays are quickly approaching, you may be wondering how to keep the Christmas spirit alive without being able to physically gather with family and friends. The answer is by hosting a virtual Christmas event or party! With the help of virtual event platforms, it’s now easier than ever to bring everyone together to celebrate the holiday season. Whether you’re planning a virtual Christmas event or party, this blog post will provide you with everything you need to know to make your gathering a success.

What You'll Need?

If you’re planning a virtual Christmas event, you’ll need to make sure you have the right tools and resources in order to make it successful. The first thing you’ll need is a virtual event platform. You’ll need to find an online platform that offers the features you need to make your event successful. You’ll want to make sure the platform has the ability to host video calls, stream presentations, and offer interactive tools like polls and surveys. It should also have the ability to customize the experience, so you can brand the event with your logo or unique theme.

You should also make sure to have a good internet connection so that everyone can stay connected during your event. This is especially important if you plan on hosting activities online or streaming music and videos.

Finally, depending on the type of virtual Christmas event you’re hosting, you may need some additional items such as decorations, food, or beverages. If this is the case, you should make sure to have them ready before your event starts.

Planning the Activities

When planning activities for your virtual Christmas event or party, think outside of the box! There are plenty of fun things you can do virtually that you wouldn’t be able to do in person. Consider activities such as a virtual scavenger hunt, holiday-themed game shows, virtual bingo, or even a holiday craft activity that everyone can do from the comfort of their own homes. 

You can also plan activities such as a “Name that Tune” game or holiday-themed charades. With the right games, your virtual Christmas event will be fun and memorable!

Decorating Virtually

The decorations are one of the most important parts of any holiday celebration, and a virtual event should be no different! With a virtual Christmas event, you can create a festive atmosphere without ever having to leave your house. 

One way to decorate virtually is to choose a festive background for your video call. There are many backgrounds available online, from snow-covered trees to traditional decorations. You could even customize your own backdrop with photos or illustrations of the season. Additionally, you could ask each guest to have a virtual Christmas tree behind them during the call to really get everyone in the holiday spirit. 

You can also give each guest a “goodie bag” ahead of time filled with fun items to help set the mood. This can include items like paper snowflakes, small LED lights, ornaments, mini wreaths, and more. Ask each guest to set up their own little festive space and it will be just like they were at a real party. 

Playing Virtual Games

Christmas parties are about spending quality time with your loved ones and enjoying the holiday cheer. To make sure your virtual event is full of fun, it’s important to include some games that everyone can join in on. There are a lot of different options available for playing games online, depending on the type of game you want to play and how many players you want to include. 

If you’re looking for something a bit more interactive, there are plenty of digital board games that allow multiple people to play from their own devices. You can find classics like Monopoly, Scrabble, Trivial Pursuit, and even newer versions like Telestrations. If you’re feeling creative, you can create your own fun game or quiz to get everyone laughing with comedic party games. 

If you’d rather keep things simple, there’s always the classic game of charades or Pictionary. You can also have everyone play a game of ‘Never Have I Ever’ or ‘Two Truths and a Lie’ to get to know each other better. 

No matter which game you choose, make sure to set the mood and let everyone know how much fun you’re going to have at your virtual Christmas event!

A Special Surprise

Adding a special surprise to your virtual Christmas event or party is a great way to make it extra memorable. A few ideas for something special could include an online scavenger hunt, an ugly Christmas sweater contest, or a virtual gift exchange.

For an online scavenger hunt, you can create a list of items for your guests to find around the house and take a picture of. You could even set up a reward for whoever finds the most items. For an ugly Christmas sweater contest, have each guest wear their ugliest Christmas sweater and then have a vote for the best one!

If you’d like to do a virtual gift exchange, there are many ways to set this up. One option is to have everyone pick names out of a hat and then send gifts to the person they picked. Another option is to use an online tool that automatically assigns people who are in the same “group” and then they send gifts to each other. Whichever method you choose, be sure to give everyone enough time to buy or make their gifts before the party.

Whatever special surprise you decide on, it will definitely add a unique touch to your virtual Christmas event and make it even more enjoyable for all involved.

Final Thoughts

Hosting a virtual Christmas event can be a fun way to bring people together and create lasting memories. Even if you can’t be physically present, there are still ways to celebrate with friends and family near and far. With the right planning and preparation, your virtual Christmas event can be a success! Make sure to leave plenty of time for each activity, as well as some time for everyone to socialize. Most importantly, don’t forget to have fun!
