One of the most anticipated activities on Christmas is where we can gather with our closest ones and celebrate together. During times like these, it may be hard for some people to be able to celebrate together in one place. To avoid them feeling left out, holding a virtual Christmas party is the best way to do it. Not only is it inclusive for everyone, we don’t have to do a lot of clean ups after a virtual party! We have compiled a list of the best and the most fun activities to do during your virtual Christmas party to make it far from boring.

No Christmas is complete without festive decorations. Be it cakes, cookies, gingerbread houses, Christmas trees, or sweaters, all of them need Christmas decorations! Set a timer and have a decorating competition to see which one of you and your friends have the best decorating skill. You can each vote for the winner or ask the people on social media to vote!

Perhaps you don’t have time to prepare for a decorating contest? There are also ways to keep the competitiveness going without any hassle. You and your friends can still have fun with online games such as:
- Guess the Christmas Song (play the song for 1-2 seconds and have them raise their hands to guess)
- Guess the Drawing (you can use the whiteboard or share screen feature on the virtual meeting platform)
- Christmas Trivia (you can read the question out loud and have them show their answer on a piece of paper or use Kahoot!)
