[For Women] Recommended Party Entertainment, Games, and Performances

There are times when you’re asked to put on a performance or plan some entertainment for a wedding, a company dinner, or year-end and New Year parties—and it can be hard to figure out what to do.

Maybe you’ve ended up doing it alone with no one to consult, or you’re just not comfortable performing in front of people to begin with.

In this article, we’ll introduce plenty of classic and recommended ideas for entertainment, dances, and skits especially for women dealing with these worries.

Choose something that feels manageable for you, based on the number of participants and the members attending.

If you set aside your embarrassment and give it your all, you’re sure to liven up the event!

Entertainment video

How about creating a video that also includes messages from people who couldn’t attend? It’s a staple, especially for wedding entertainment, and it lets you convey congratulations from a wider range of people.

The fact that it’s delivered as video is another key point—be mindful of approaches unique to video, such as exchanges that play out across different cuts.

It could also be interesting to connect it with the activities before and after the segment at the event, rather than having the video stand alone.

Let’s see how well everyone understands the people present by checking with quizzes about their personal information and anecdotes.

It’s easier to make questions if you ask the person who’ll be the quiz subject for information, but it might be even more exciting to take it in a surprising direction where personal details are handled without the person’s knowledge.

Preparing in advance is key—like cleverly obtaining stories the person has kept secret or researching tiny details no one knows.

While there may be a touch of embarrassment, let’s find out who the best understanding friend in the room really is.

♬ Athletic Meet “Heaven and Hell” (No Introduction) – Shinonome

We’d like to introduce the “Ranking Check Game,” a perfect party activity to test participants’ discerning eye! The host prepares two options, and players simply choose which one they think is the real deal.

If you’re correct, you stay top-tier; if you’re wrong, your rank drops—a simple yet thrilling set of rules.

Anyone can join, and the unexpected results are sure to spark laughter! It’s great as a team competition too, and the moment you reveal who remained “first-class” at the end is always a highlight.

Give this game a try to instantly liven up your event!

Earphone Loud Telephone Game

Banquet Entertainment Series Part 4: Earphone (Loud) Whisper Game
Earphone Loud Telephone Game

You often see this game on variety shows too, right? I think the classic “telephone game” format is fun for all ages.

Preparing the music device is easy nowadays since we have smartphones.

If you don’t have headphones, earphones will do just fine.

For older participants, pick prompts about trends among young people; for younger participants, choose prompts with a Showa-retro vibe—add a little twist in how you select the topics.

The limit might be around 20 characters that people can memorize at once.

Getting some bitter tea ready as a penalty could make it even more exciting!

Telepathy Gesture Game

Banquet Entertainment Series, Vol. 3: Telepathy Gesture Game
Telepathy Gesture Game

It’s no exaggeration to say that gesture games have long been a pillar of Japanese variety shows, and they’re always a hit as party entertainment.

Here, instead of a typical communication-style gesture game, we’ll introduce a telepathy-style version that tests whether two people are on the same wavelength.

First, present a prompt.

If the two performers make the same gesture, it’s a correct answer.

For example, if the prompt is “baseball” and one person acts as a batter while the other acts as a pitcher, that’s a miss.

It’s even more fun if you set up a screen so they can’t see each other’s gestures!

Kappa Plate Ball-Carrying Race

It’s also great to use paper plates at the party venue for an obstacle-course-style game! If you’ve got a large space, the excitement doubles.

Balance a paper plate on your head, hold it in place with your hands, and put a ping-pong ball on top.

The winner is the person who finishes with the most ping-pong balls still on their plate after clearing all the obstacles.

Simple obstacles made from tables and chairs are plenty.

Even just doing one lap around the venue along the walls works well.

You can customize the obstacles in many ways—like greeting the department head or playing rock-paper-scissors with a junior colleague.

Don’t forget to prepare classic sports day-style background music to play during the game!

Pantyhose Sumo

I forced my sleeping boss to do pantyhose sumo and he went absolutely ballistic lol
Pantyhose Sumo

If there’s anything that gets laughs across all countries and eras, it’s funny faces.

At parties, simple, all-out physical games really get the crowd going.

When you want to toss aside a bit of shame and have fun, try “Pantyhose Sumo,” which will make your face look ridiculous whether you like it or not! You tie several pairs of pantyhose together in the middle, then each player puts a leg over their head and pulls against each other.

Whoever manages to keep theirs from slipping off until the end wins! Do you lose quickly or hold out to the bitter end… it’s a bit of a dilemma (lol).
