Men’s Recommended Party Acts and Entertainment to Liven Up Events [2026] (81–90)
Buruzon Chiemi
How about a male version of “Blouson Chiemi”? You could go with a white shirt and a tight skirt, or a suit as a ‘career salaryman’ instead of a career woman.
You could probably get the crowd going by riffing on in-jokes and relatable situations specific to the people there.
The roll dance of “Choo Choo TRAIN”EXILE
EXILE’s smash hit song “Choo Choo TRAIN.” The rolling dance choreography was also a big craze.
So, how about this as an entertainment act? You don’t have to dance the whole thing—just do the distinctive rolling dance or the easy-to-follow moves, or even perform only the first half.
I think that would work well.
Highly recommended.
Guitar and vocals (solo performance)
If you’re a guy who can play guitar, you’ve got to put that skill to use even for party entertainment! This video is a cover of Sukima Switch’s “Kanade.” Wild partying is fun, but if the group is a bit more laid-back, pulling off a gentle, heartfelt song like this can look really cool.
There are plenty of people sharing cover arrangements of other songs as well, so try searching for them.
Pull out the bill wedged in a beer bottle
This is a party trick using beer bottles, which you’ll almost always find at a banquet.
Stack two beer bottles vertically by aligning their mouths, and place a bill between them.
The trick is to pull out the bill without touching the bottles and without knocking them over.
If you simply grab the edge of the bill and pull, you’ll fail and topple the bottles.
But if you hold one edge of the bill and use your other hand to strike around the center of the bill straight down, the bill will snap out cleanly! It’ll be even more exciting if you let someone else fail first and then perform it yourself.
A flawless rock ’n’ roller
It’s a performance with an Elvis Presley-style outfit, a perfectly styled pompadour, and an eccentric guitar slung over the shoulder.
He moves all around the stage to songs by Aladdin, a band active in the 1980s.
It’s quite a high-energy act.
Childhood Photo Quiz
A quiz that everyone can join while chatting is perfect as entertainment at a banquet! But when it comes to quizzes, it can be hard to decide what kind to do.
In times like that, I recommend a childhood photo quiz.
You project participants’ childhood photos on a screen and have everyone guess who they are.
Whether someone looks exactly the same as they do now, or the terrifying boss was an adorable kid, it’s the kind of game that’s sure to be a hit no matter what happens.

pantomime
It’s a performance where you create an invisible wall and make a bag float using only your body movements.
It looks just like magic and will surely amaze people.
Using props like an umbrella adds impact.
However, it requires quite a lot of practice, so do your best to master it.
