Find a guest who… bingo

If you're looking for a fun, low-pressure way to help people mingle at your party, shower, or corporate event, 'Find a Guest Who' bingo is a guaranteed hit. This icebreaker game encourages players to chat with others to match traits or activities on their bingo card—like “has blue hair,” “wearing a red dress,” or “sipping a martini.” It’s the ideal activity to kick-start conversations and create shared laughs.

Whether you're hosting a wedding reception, team offsite, or birthday bash, this unique twist on bingo gets everyone talking, moving, and connecting.

How to play find a guest who bingo

1. Give each guest a bingo card: Each one contains a 5x5 grid filled with fun prompts like “knows the host from school,” “has traveled to three continents,” or “is drinking something bubbly.”
2. Encourage mingling: Players must find other guests who match the descriptions and write down their names in the corresponding squares.
3. Set the rules: You can allow each guest’s name to appear only once or multiple times—it's up to you. You can also decide whether players need to fill one row, the entire card, or complete certain patterns to win.
4. Celebrate the winners: Offer small prizes for the first few people to get bingo. Prizes could be themed, funny, or functional—whatever fits the vibe of your event!

This game works brilliantly for groups that don’t know each other well, offering a gentle nudge to strike up new conversations.
