How to host a virtual Christmas party

Many of these are free or have a small fee to host. Simply set up your event, get the important info (like the meeting ID and password or event link) and you’re all set.

You can still have fun virtually without gathering in person! We have several instant download Christmas party games in our Etsy shop that make a perfect virtual Christmas party activity everyone can do together. Some of our fun games include:

All games are available to download instantly once purchased. All you have to do is download the file, save to a computer/laptop and then share it electronically with guests before the party begins so they can print on their own or download the game to their phone or computer. Or, if the video meeting software you’re using allows you to share your screen, you can pull the game up on your own computer and share their screen with your virtual party guests.
