[For Women] Recommended Party Entertainments, Games, and Performances (21–30)
Tasting Game
Kirin, Asahi, Suntory—just hearing those names is irresistible to beer lovers, right? So instead of a sake tasting, how about a beer tasting or even a juice tasting competition to liven things up? Even the same orange juice can taste subtly different depending on the brand.
And that canned coffee you sip without thinking—if you taste it seriously, you’ll find it’s completely different from others.
At a party with lots of dishes, you could even do blindfolded tastings and try to guess the foods—that’s sure to get everyone excited.
If you usually act like a gourmet, make sure not to show any uncool moments!
Tasting Umaibo Blind (Flavor Identification)
Let’s enjoy the welcome party with a “Umai-bō Taste Test Showdown” that gets both the audience and the participants excited! As the name suggests, you rely solely on your sense of taste to guess the flavor.
Everyone knows Umai-bō, and there are actually quite a lot of flavors sold, so it’s perfect for this game.
Participants will eat the Umai-bō while blindfolded, then remove the blindfold, check the lineup of options, and give their answer.
You can also provide a list of descriptions for each flavor.
It might feel easy to guess, but once your vision is taken away by the blindfold, it turns out to be surprisingly challenging.
recorder
How about trying a party trick using the recorder that most people learned in elementary school? In school, you usually play children’s songs, which have fewer notes and seem like anyone could play them with a bit of practice.
So if you pull out a recorder at a party, many people will probably assume you’re going to play that kind of tune.
Why not turn that expectation on its head and perform a popular song that’s rarely played on the recorder? At the party, people will first be puzzled—what song is this?—and the moment they recognize it, the room will erupt with excitement.
Eyelash Toothpick Challenge
As a quirky party trick that gets everyone smiling at banquets or drinking parties, the “Eyelash Toothpick Challenge” is super fun.
Balance a toothpick directly on your own eyelashes or gently on false lashes, and compete to see who can keep it from falling the longest! It’s a light, slightly nerve‑racking game that sparks laughter.
Perfect for livening things up—cheer each other on with a friendly “You’ve got this!” and the mood will naturally warm up.
The best tip: relax and just have fun!
Magic using a smartphone
A heart-pounding magic trick that lets you know someone’s smartphone passcode.
You can use it as a magic performance, but it’s also a handy technique if you secretly want to find out a family member’s or partner’s passcode.
It uses the iPhone’s calculator: first, have the person enter their passcode so the performer can’t see it, then have them add a random four-digit number.
After that, by pressing the minus button and then the equals button, you can immediately see the originally entered number—taking advantage of how the calculator works.
Give someone a nickname on the fly
How about a little game where you quickly give people nicknames that capture their traits and vibe, with a generous dash of humor? For example, someone who wears glasses and is very knowledgeable could be called something whimsically cute like “Professor Specs.” Dreaming up slightly surreal yet endearing names is sure to spark laughter.
The key is to keep it gentle and funny so it doesn’t come off as rude.
If everyone takes turns and asks, “What’s the next nickname?” you’ll get the conversation flowing naturally and help everyone warm up to each other at any gathering.
Sing in a dialect
Singing in a dialect is a fun idea that warms everyone’s hearts and brings out smiles! Just adding a slightly different intonation or ending to your words instantly grabs the audience’s interest.
For example, try singing a song you know in the dialect of your hometown, or switch a popular song into a dialect—before you know it, people will be smiling and saying, “That dialect is so cute!” Dialects have a unique sound and warmth rooted in their regions, so simply singing in one can create a cozy atmosphere and make conversation flow more naturally—another reason it really livens things up.
It’s easy to try, so even if you feel a little shy, give it a go and have fun!
parody song
For women who feel a bit embarrassed about doing a party trick, I recommend parody songs.
If you plan ahead and sing with a group, it should help reduce the embarrassment.
In this video, they use the popular song “Otona Blue” to make a funny parody about the differences between introverts and extroverts.
With easy entry points like wearing school-uniform cosplay, you’re less likely to mess up.
In the workplace, it might be good to create a unique parody song about clients or departments—as long as it doesn’t make anyone uncomfortable.
Give it a try!
“Let’s Go! Phantom Thief Girls” danceMomoiro Clover Z
The hit all-female group Momoiro Clover Z’s “Ikuze! Kaitō Shōjo” is a great song to mimic for a singing impression.
Since you can do it with multiple people, it cuts down on the embarrassment, and just wearing different colors makes it look the part.
Another plus is that the dance isn’t too complicated.
It’s even better if you assign roles to match the members’ personalities.
Sometimes deliberately mismatching can actually get laughs and make it more fun.
Definitely give it a try at least once!
LOVE MachineMorning Musume
Many people know Morning Musume’s “LOVE Machine.” Just swing your hands left and right to the beat or copy a few simple moves, and smiles will quickly spread.
The energetic dance makes people around you naturally want to sway along, instantly brightening the atmosphere.
If you call out to each other in time with the song, the sense of togetherness at the party will jump way up! It’s an easy, low-pressure dance, so even first-timers are fine.
People around you will get drawn in and start dancing too, and everyone will end up laughing together and having a blast!
