Have you ever wanted to play music bingo with a large number of people? Would you love to have fun amongst a wider audience? Well look no further as Music dobOFF Bingo Card packs now come with a 200 count version! And the best part? The same great price! If you aren't familiar with what exactly is Music Bingo or if you’re trying to learn the basics of the game, you’ve landed on the right page!

Music bingo is a fun spin on traditional bingo that allows your guests or to listen to some of the most popular songs out there while playing with the others! The caller or in this case, the ‘DJ’ plays a snippet of the song and the players should basically mark the song off on their card. There are also different ways of adding a lot of twists and turns to the format as well. If you’re looking for a particular sheet, don’t fear as we have got you covered with a wide variety of playlists and the song lists as well.

Music bingo also doesn’t have a specified place to play at. You can play it with your friends in a classroom or maybe even when you’re traveling with your friends. Elderly people would certainly love a modern and unique twist on the regular old bingo that they know. Besides, in these crazy times we live in, you could also play the game on Zoom or any other virtual meet of your choice.

Previously, the game used to come with 60 cards on 30 sheets. Now, all games come with 200 card count version, as well. Which is simply amazing. One little fun thing to add is that you can print the cards on coloured papers. This always make an event more fun.

Musical bingo is the perfect game for a party or even for a bar. Sometimes, people tend to play their own cards and customize to suit the audience as well, making it an ideal party game. There are so many bars, pubs and various other venues that host music bingo on a regular (and sometimes) even on a frequent basis. These venues are mostly associated with music and a lot of people make it an ideal venue to play the game.

Musical bingo also has a couple of benefits that might not have crossed your mind. Bingo helps you improve your memory, especially if the elderly get along in the game. Like every other party game that exists out there, it helps one socialize and helps spark conversation. It also helps one learn new songs and also encourages one in a sing-along, lifting everybody’s mood. After all, music is a language that binds everyone.

So now that you have everything you need, the question is, how does one exactly host a party?

Like we mentioned earlier, you could either host a themed party or anything else that suits your party. After all, you’re the host. Set a date and send out an invitation to those whom you plan on inviting. Obviously, thanks to the lock-downs enforced in various countries, you can send a Zoom invite or an invite from the platform of your choice. You’ll have to send them the card so that they can print it or even use their gadgets to use the cards. You should also keep in mind how long you want the event to last for and how many songs do you plan on playing as these have an impact on your guests’ availability. The sweet spot is around 30 to 35 songs as these are usually snippets and provides enough time for the guests to enjoy as well.

You can also choose to give prizes to the winner as this might encourage them to keep coming back to the game.

Some people tend to use this game for various other purposes other than to keep people entertained and also provide them with some fun activities to do. One such example is that a couple of people get together and raise funds for charity, which is a lovely and a great way to keep people entertained while also helping out a certain cause.

Once you purchase the cards, you can keep them forever. There are also free and fun playlists for the cards can be found on basically any major platform (Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music). The cards can be purchased here. 

Now, who’s up for some Music Bingo?

staff Christmas parties will be a bit different this year, but we have you covered with virtual event entertainment

It's is that time of the year again! But 2020 is admittedly not like anything we've seen in the recent past. That doesn't mean we quit, however. It means we adapt and overcome. Many of us have been forced to work from home, and whether we are enjoying that change or not, I think we can all agree that we would be disappointed to not have the opportunity to have a staff holiday function.

Here at FatCityEntertainment.com we have had to make many changes, as well. As you can imagine, the amount of event entertainment services the world has required has reduced dramatically. Though, when one door closes, you sneak out the bathroom window... or however the saying goes. lol.

We are proud to state that we now offer complete Virtual Event Packages any time of year, and naturally, during the holidays too.

As is our ritual, we like to offer an "Early-Bird Special" for early bookings of 15% off any custom Virtual Event packages. Because of the confusion among 2020 in general, we are going to extend this offer until the end of October, when you speak to an agent from our Contact Page, be sure to request your discount.

We will also be giving a 25% discount to any Trivia and Music Bingo game downloads from our Holidays Category at the Trivia Store. There are now 35 different Music Bingo Games available, and many Trivia Presentations too. Be sure to check out the Halloween Party Pack and the Christmas Party Pack. Each of which come with a free copy of "The Host Handbook: How To Start A Successful Trivia Night".

Since Virtual Events are such a new solution, we do not have much in the ways of video footage at our disposal to share with you, and to other event planners. So, if you are willing, we would like to offer you an additional 10% off, if you would allow us to use video from your virtual event to share on our commercial media avenues, such as here on FatCityEntertainment.com. If you do not wish to share your company event video, no worries. Of course we will respect your privacy. Just as we prove to you each day we refuse to sell your information, and limited our email marketing campaigns to once a month or less.

We hope these small gestures bring you some solace this crazy year, and we hope we still get to see your pretty faces, even if it is online using one of our many video conferencing applications, such as Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or even Facebook Live, Youtube, Reddit Broadcasting, or Twitch.

Have an excellent Halloween, everyone! Please wear your masks (unless you are home on your video calls, because then I want to see your fantastic smiles), and stay safe!

Every game purchased and downloaded from the FatCityEntertainment.com Trivia Store is reusable and yours forever. Now with over 30 games to choose from, your Music Bingo night can go on and on, perhaps indefinitely! You know your guests will never tire of "The 90s" or "Hair Bands". Once you are on a roll as a Host, I am confident you will change up the games slightly to include your favorite Michael Jackson tune. The sky is the limit with adaptations.

Before I get into the games included in the new Bronze, Silver, and Gold packs of games, Let's go over some of the many, many possibilities for 'Bingos' you can make on any stack of cards. 
  1. 1st Line
  2. 2 Lines
  3. 3 Lines
  4. An "X"
  5. A "+" (Plus sign)
  6. 4 Corners
  7. Hashtag (Pound Sign)
  8. Outer Circle
  9. Inner Circle
  10. Almost any letter of the alphabet will work
  11. Any of the letters in "B E E R" ("M I L K" is there are kids present)
  12. "Swords" (2 intersecting lines, but one is lower than the plus sign)
  13. "All 12 Lines Available" (This is fun, but you have to keep track. 5 vertical line wins, 5 horizontal line wins, and 2 diagonal. Also you will require 12 prizes.)
  14. Blackout!
  15. Can you think of more? Please add in comments below!

7 Reasons companies and party planners are switching to 'Virtual Events'

8/10/2020

0 Comments

 
Virtual events have come into the spotlight ever since the coronavirus has brought life to a standstill. Major events like E3 2020, the event that allows game developers to showcase their new games and the Mobile World Congress 2020 (MWC 2020 for short) has also been cancelled owing to the pandemic. These events were the go-to platform for various companies to showcase their projects and also give consumers the first glance at what they have been working on.
Picture
Luckily, the pandemic has pushed companies to release their own ‘virtual events’ that give consumers and journalists to see what they have been working on. Big name companies like Apple and Samsung have already shown the world that virtual events are slowly becoming the norm - at least for the moment. Not only that, many non - IT companies are working on virtual events that allow anyone and everyone to participate in it. Virtual events go to show just how flexible and adaptable a company really is.

It is not only businesses that benefit from virtual events. Friends are now able to be an active participant in movie watch-alongs, birthday parties can now be attended from any part of the world - these are just a few examples of how virtual events are currently booming. Gaming networks like Twitch and Discord have recently boomed in popularity and that is all thanks to the fact that these platforms make accessibility to various virtual events a whole lot easier. Let us go a little bit more in depth as to why virtual events are the new norm and a couple of ideas for your first virtual event!

Reason 1- Cost

People don’t really need to pay anything to access any virtual event since they aren’t really paying for any service. Services like Discord, have made playing games a lot easier especially due to the fact that they are free and they are like any other messaging services. Not only that, even people who organize these events are significantly saving costs, which greatly help the company from a financial perspective.

Reason 2 - Safety

Gone now are the days when people used to meet in crowded venues, deciding when a certain event took place. The virus has brought a very important ‘rule’ to the fore - social distancing. People don’t want to contract the virus and spread it to others. It ensures and in a way almost, promotes people to stay at their homes by offering various ways to keep themselves entertained at home. It is a way to ‘safely gather.’ No more money wasted on fancy banquets!

Reason 3 - Reusability

Virtual events allow us to use a platform over and over again, unlike a real venue. Venues often are booked by other people and virtual events is one way of avoiding all of that hassle. Something else that is overlooked is that virtual events are global! People from all over the world can meet up on a platform, eliminating the need to travel long distances which brings us to the next point.

Reason 4 - Time is saved

Most of us are aware of the old anecdote:- time is money. People don’t really need to visit faraway places anymore which saves a lot of time. They can attend the event even when they travel, which is an awesome thing to do. This is essentially what had happened with recent keynote events like Apple’s WWDC where they had pre recorded what they planned on showcasing and ultimately allowed users like me and you, to access the event whenever you want. You can also rewatch the event at any given point!

Reason 5 - Health and Safety

Given that the pandemic has forced us all to stay at our homes, virtual events have allowed us to take care of our own health. There is no need to call for ambulances when someone gets injured  or no more bad food that may cause poisoning at the theatre. Virtual events have essentially allowed us to escape serious health hazards which is something to look forward to.

Reason 6 - Comfort

We all love staying at our own home, comfortably sitting and doing whatever you want. Want to walk around naked? No one’s around to judge you. Watching Netflix while you are in a meeting? No one can tell! Another reason to love virtual events is that you can do whatever you want from the comfort of your own home. You can set up a birthday party for your friend, or you can watch movies with a wide audience. You can also showcase your gaming skills to the internet! Virtual Events are awesome!

Reason 7 - Saves the environment.

This one is actually quite serious. A study in the UK, pointed out that in regular events, people are more likely to throw garbage around them. 

Virtual events are one of the most sustainable ways that one can host an event today. When one hosts a physical event, say a wedding, so much food goes to waste and rubbish is created. Especially in times where cleanliness and avoiding filth is the norm, virtual events certainly help avoid it and guess what? You don’t even need to worry about those!
If you are planning to host your own virtual event, here are some great ideas to help you get started!

Bonus: Ideas For Your Next Virtual Event!

Trivia Parties!

Everyone knows trivia parties are fun. Thanks to the internet, which one can use to their advantage, trivia parties become a lot more fun! There are so many contests that are being held right now and maybe, even your local bar might be conducting one. It also promises quality fun! Be sure to check out our selection of Trivia Zoom Apps, Downloadable Powerpoint Presentations, and Music Bingo Cards.

​
Movie/Sports 'Watch-Alongs'

So many YouTubers, Discord servers and Twitch streamers have recently started streaming their favourite anime series, movies etc. and have been watching it with their friends and people who subscribe to them. This is a really fun and unique way as it allows them to interact with each other and discuss fan theories! What are you waiting for? Call your friends and watch your favourite rom-com (if you know, that’s your thing. No judgement!)

The future seems to be done on the internet and events are no exceptions. With the world edging towards virtual events, it is safe to say, they will be the way forward in this crazy new world we live in.
