When it comes to games for 18th birthday party celebrations, the possibilities are endless. There is nothing better than a few games to break the ice and liven up a party. Choose a few and create a memorable celebration.


Ideas For Games for 18th Birthday Party

Almost an adult, but still a teenager, 18 year olds want to have fun but do not want to be seen as childish. If you are planning to have games at a birthday party for an 18th birthday, then choose some that are considered more grown up but also will be fun for people of all ages to play.

Depending on the party location and the time of year, choose games that can played either indoors or outdoors. You can even have a mix of both types if the party will be both inside and out.

Indoor Games

Some great indoor games to play include:

  • Trivial Pursuit
  • Name That Tune
  • Video Games / Wii
  • Twister
  • Card games
  • Board games such as Life, Uno or Apples to Apples

Some other interactive games to play inside are:

  • Karaoke
  • Charades
  • Dance contest
  • Musical chairs

You could even make a few games of your own. Make up a list of questions about the guest of honor and see who answers them correctly. Whoever gets the most answers correct is the winner. Ask questions such as what is their favorite song, place to hang out, color, etc.

Another game that teenagers like to play is Truth or Dare. Be sure that the dares are safe and do not harm anyone. This game can often get out of control so be sure to keep it as comfortable as possible for the participants.

Outdoor Games

Outdoor games can be enjoyed by people of all ages and sexes. Offer an assortment so people can choose what they would like to participate in. Some ideas include:

  • Sports – volleyball, baseball, badminton and basketball
  • Relay races
  • Outdoor scavenger hunt

If its summer, play some games in the pool such as:

  • Marco Polo
  • Water volleyball
  • Swimming races

Floating games can also be purchased for your party. Games such as floating table tennis, golf or even basketball are fun to play in the pool.

Themed Games

If the party is centered around a theme, incorporate games that go along with it. For instance, for a Survivor themed party divide up into two teams or tribes and have contests against one another. Relay races or hunting for various items around the house are two ideas to try. A Hawaiian luau could not be complete without a limbo contest or a hula dance competition.

Final Thoughts

When it comes to planning games for 18th birthday party, the most important thing to keep in mind is offering a good variety of games and having something for everyone. Not everyone likes sports or dancing so have other offerings at the party. Know who is being invited and what their interests are as well. Any 18 year old will tell you that they want to have fun and not be bored. Having games at your next birthday celebration will not only break the ice but provide entertainment as well.
