Help on Tele2, tariffs, questions

We offer you a series of games, entertainment and competitions for the holiday in honor of the Defender of the Fatherland Day. You can use these games for home holiday, at a corporate party in honor of the holiday on February 23. We hope that you and your guests will like them and help you organize a fun holiday.

The game "The Sultan and his wives"

This game is suitable for a large company. Participants are divided into several harems, each of which consists of one "husband" (male) and "wives" (several girls). The number of "wives" in harems should be the same. The host turns on any oriental music, and the “wives” begin to take off any details of clothing, jewelry and put them on the “husband” under it. At some point, the music stops, and the harem in which the "husband" will wear more items of ladies' toiletry is declared the winner. As a well-deserved prize, the winning harem or his “sultan” can come up with a tricky task for the losing harem.

Of course, the task can be changed and suggest that the "sultan" dress his women. Only in this case things will end very quickly...

Game "Parts of the body"

This competition, like the previous one, has an oriental theme. Two sultans are selected from the invitees - the holders of the harem and their beloved wives. The facilitator must prepare cards in advance on which various parts of the body will be indicated. The Sultan and his first wife draw out one card, turned down words down, and touch the parts of the body indicated in it. Next comes the second wife, and the "toss" is repeated. The second wife "attaches" to her husband, while he should not "break away" from the first wife. The number of wives is increasing ... The game continues until it is still possible to touch the husband with the contenders for wives or until the cards run out. The winner is the harem, in which the resulting "sculpture" will look funnier and will not fall apart.

The game "Money on ... a rope!"

Several couples can participate in this competition. To the ladies at the waist level, with the help of a rope or belt, the presenter attaches a fake purse of large sizes, and to gentlemen they attach a banknote of similar dimensions. Men without the help of hands and other parts of the body need to place their banknote in their partner's wallet. The pair that does it the fastest wins.

Game "Bank deposits"

The competition involves two couples (not necessarily married). The host announces that now the participants will have to open bank deposits as soon as possible, in each of which only one banknote can be invested. Participants are given initial contributions (it can be candy wrappers or fake money). Banks for their deposits can serve as lapels, pockets and other secluded places of men's clothing. Ladies need to make deposits as quickly as possible and open as many accounts as possible. The leader marks the time and announces the start, he can also help the couples in completing the task. After 2 minutes, the results of the game are summed up.

The host checks how many uninserted bills each pair has left. After that, he asks women to withdraw bank deposits as soon as possible,

complicating the task at the same time: the ladies will withdraw their deposits blindfolded so as not to see in which banks other people's deposits were made.

The participants are blindfolded while the men are swapped. The host gives the command, and unsuspecting women begin to withdraw deposits with excitement.

Quick kiss game

Two teams are recruited - women's and men's, both line up opposite each other in a line one at a time. The music turns on and the start is announced: men in turn should kiss each participant in the ladies' line as quickly as possible, and after his kissing run is over, the man should shout “I'm done!”, thereby proclaiming the end of his task. The task of the facilitator is to record the time it takes for each participant to complete the task. The winner is declared the most nimble gentleman.

The game "Find me and kiss!"

Men and all interested ladies alternately participate in the competition. The cavalier is blindfolded. The girls disperse throughout the room. The music turns on, the girls begin to move around the room until the man gives the command to freeze, after which the host marks the time, and the man begins to run around the room in search of beautiful ladies and kiss them. For the sake of a joke, the women's team can be diluted by willing men, disguised as girls (for example, exchanging clothing details, accessories, etc. with them). After passing the "relay race" the next participant enters the game. The fastest one wins the competition.

The game "Who will be kissed the most"

This competition is for men. The winner, as you understand, is determined not without the help of the beautiful half of humanity. This game is best played during dances, before which the host announces the conditions of the competition.

Rhythmic music is turned on, under which men must “harvest” - get as many kisses as possible from the dancing ladies. At the same time, women should not forget to “break down”, because if they are not drunk yet, they will not kiss everyone in a row.

After the end of the music, the lucky winner is determined. The one who has more kisses on his cheeks and other accessible open places is the honorary kissed Casanova!

Blindfold game

Before starting the "blind game", first play the game "We are not local people." The participant is given a hat in his hands and is invited to walk around the guests, who, in turn, must put the most valuable and expensive thing they have in the hat. It is better if these are your favorite earrings, watches, glasses without eyeglasses, a car keychain, a photograph, etc.

Now the participant, together with the presenter, carefully lays the collected valuables on the floor, after which the conditions of the competition are announced to him. He must blindfolded to go through the "obstacle course" without stepping on a single object. Before this, the participant is allowed to once again walk between the laid out objects, to take a better look at their location. The leader must escalate the situation, saying that the participant needs to remember as accurately as possible which object, where and how it lies, so as not to accidentally step on it, otherwise this mistake will be fatal for him, and the revenge of the owner of the little thing is terrible and merciless.

After the psychological “attack”, the participant is blindfolded and turned several times around himself, and at this time the guests very quietly remove all things from the floor so that they are not actually damaged. The player is directed to the “obstacle course”, and as soon as he begins to take the first timid steps, the guests in turn begin to exclaim, or even shout loudly: “Careful, do not step on my only watch!”, “Where are you going!”, “ Aaah, you almost crushed my glasses!”, “More carefully, let’s go to the right, put your foot to the left, oh no!..”, etc.

The unfortunate player courageously overcomes the "obstacle course", sweating from excitement and worries. After that, his eyes are untied, and the ill-fated "path" is shown.

For the price of good socks, but a bit more original.

We have already written several times about gifts for Defender of the Fatherland Day. But these materials are intended for women, since it is not customary for most men to give gifts to each other on this holiday. And there are relatively few ladies on this site.

This article is about how a man can please the next of kin of the same sex on February 23rd. After all, holidays are a great occasion for family leisure.

February 11, 2017

February is full of holidays. Emotions have not yet calmed down after, as February 23 is already knocking on the door. And although most men claim that they expect absolutely nothing from this day (day as day), in fact, many of them want attention, care and vivid impressions. As you understand, neither expensive perfume, nor several pairs of socks or shorts as a gift can cause real joy. But a good party with competitions and entertainment is capable of this.

In order to make the strong half of humanity happy on this holiday, it is enough to organize a truly exciting and interesting celebration, where every man can prove himself and prove his superiority. After all, it is in their blood to be winners in life. You can, of course, especially not bother and hire a good presenter. Or you can turn on your imagination and creativity, and organize everything yourself. A little effort and time spent will bring the long-awaited fruits - a joyful and cheerful mood of the heroes of the occasion.

1. Party in honor of February 23: ideas for holding

First of all, you need to decide in what style your party will be held. There are actually a lot of options: it all depends on what you yourself want. This may well be a rather traditional military-style holiday, where guests are dressed in costumes associated with military service. Or you can not become attached to the troops, but hold, for example, a party:

• hussar;
• boxing;
• gentleman's;
• heroic;
• Sultan's;
• historical and others.

Lots of options. The main thing is to organize everything correctly. First of all, decorate the room where the fun will take place, choosing those attributes that will match the theme. Secondly, guests should be warned about the style of costumes in which they need to come. Thirdly, do not forget about the festive menu: it must also correspond to the chosen style. For example, if the party is pirate, then there must be seafood and rum on the table. If, however, the party is heroic, then you need a lot of meat dishes, beer and kvass. Yes, and the names of appetizers can be quite original (salad "Heroic Strength", appetizer "Kiss of the Mermaid", corsair sandwiches).

And fourthly, you need to take care of competitions and entertainment. After all, they will be the highlight of your evening. You can use well-known games, or you can find more original contests, winning which you can get prizes. What these prizes will be is up to you and your budget. But alcohol, various snacks, fun gifts, socks, perfume, playing cards, sweets are suitable as a reward ...

2. Competition "Beer belly" (for the smartest)

It's no secret that among men there are a lot of lovers of a foamy drink - beer. It is also known that the more beer you drink, the more you grow in your stomach. And this contest is dedicated to all beer lovers.

4 men are participating. It is desirable that they be approximately the same physique (but this is not essential). Each of them is given one inflated balloon, which they need to place under their shirt, T-shirt or jacket (depending on what they came to the holiday in), imitating a beer belly. After that, 20 pairs of socks are scattered randomly on the floor in front of the participants. Socks can be all the same, or they can be completely different: depending on how difficult you want to make this task. Further, at the signal, the participants must collect socks from the floor, but the ball should not burst. In addition to collecting them, they also need to be decomposed in pairs. Whoever has the most pairs of socks wins.

If you decide to use socks of completely different colors, then an additional condition appears: socks must be paired by color, and paired socks will not be counted.

3. Competition "Ladies' man" (for the biggest connoisseurs of women)

A real man is not only the one who is strong, hardy and brave, but also the one who is ready to do anything for the sake of a woman. Even the fact that men, in principle, are not inherent. In a word, a real man is one who is ready to please his chosen one in everything, even in the most unthinkable.

For this competition, you will need nail polishes, women's palms cut out of cardboard with unpainted nails, and the participants themselves. The number of contestants is limited by the available props.

At the signal of the leader, the competitors must carefully, without going beyond the boundaries of the painted nails, apply varnish. This competition evaluates not only the speed, but also the quality of the work done. The winner is the one who most jewelry and efficient to cope with the task.

4. Competition "Armed and very dangerous" (for the most convincing)

What a party on February 23rd without gun-themed contests. This entertainment is also good because it does not require any additional props. All that is needed is to prepare in advance leaflets with the name of various weapons according to the number of contestants. And both a few people and all those present can participate here.

All participants take turns pulling out leaflets with the name of a weapon. For example, it might say:

• saber;
• grenade launcher;
• a gun;
• halberd;
• boomerang;
• nunchaku.

Do not use options such as a pistol and a machine gun. They are too light.

The task is quite simple: to show with the help of facial expressions and gestures the weapon that fell out. It is clear that the content of the leaflet is kept secret. The winner is the one whose pantomime was guessed the fastest. Therefore, in this competition, the winner is determined using a stopwatch.

5. The game "Koloboks are investigating" (for the most ingenious)

Held simultaneously with all guests. Three mysterious stories are offered to their attention that need to be unraveled. After getting acquainted with each of the stories, the facilitator can be asked clarifying questions, which can only be answered with “Yes” or “No”. Questions requiring other answers will not be taken into account. The one who finds the answer first wins. There can be several winners, because there are also several riddles.

Secret History #1 "Real Case"

Every night, a lorry full of stones drives up to the pyramids of Giza, which workers scatter on the ground. Why do they do it?

Answer: Tourists are very fond of taking pebbles with them after the tour as a souvenir. And if everything had continued like this, then there would be nothing left of the pyramids. Therefore, the authorities adopted such an original solution to the problem.

Secret History #2 "Unusual Behavior"

Every day, Eugene enters a small room, stands there for some time, after which he leaves and goes about his business. He does this procedure several times a day. What's happening?

Answer: Eugene gets into the elevator and goes to the floor he needs.

Secret History #3 "Paradox"

Business partners made a bad investment and suffered losses. But at the same time they remained millionaires. How is this possible?

Answer: Before the failed investment, they were billionaires.

6. Competition "Three olives for Cinderella" (for the most dexterous)

Every man for his beloved is a prince. And princes, as you know, are ready for various crazy things for the sake of love: find rejuvenating apples, fight a dragon or defeat a giant.

Of course, you don't have to do any of the above. But it will be necessary to show your dexterity. Three “princes” and three “Cinderellas” participate in the competition (it is desirable that these are couples in love). The girls are given an empty saucer in one hand, and a tall glass of water in which three olives float in the other. Young people receive chopsticks for sushi and a task: use these chopsticks to get three olives on a saucer. In this case, the olives should not suffer: they cannot be pricked on sticks, strongly crushed, pulled out only with the help of sticks. The one who completes the fastest and meets all the requirements is the winner.

7. Competition "Family Earner" (for the most resourceful)

Men, as you know, not only guard the family hearth, but also make sure that the family is provided with everything necessary.

At the very beginning, volunteers are selected who will have to demonstrate their resourcefulness, ingenuity, speed and endurance. When the participants are determined, the host announces the rules. They consist in finding, on a signal, as soon as possible in the hall an object whose name begins with the letter voiced by the presenter. You can not use anything that was on the players before the start of the competition. All selected items must remain with the player until the end of the competition. And this is precisely the competition, since the one who finds the item last or violates the conditions is eliminated. The game continues until only one remains. He then becomes the winner.

8. Drawing "Linked by one chain" (for the strongest)

You will need two chairs, two thick scarves and two ropes. There are also two members. They sit on chairs with their backs to each other at a distance of one meter. They are blindfolded and informed that now the left leg of the first participant will be connected with one rope to the right leg of the second participant. The same will be done with the right leg, tying it to the opponent's left leg. The task of the contestants is to tear off the left leg of the opponent from the floor.

The whole catch is that in fact the legs of the opponents are not connected to each other. And with the help of a rope threaded through the legs of a chair, the legs of each individual contestant are tied. So, when trying to lift the opponent's left leg with the right foot, the contestant is actually pulling his own leg.

Laughter is usually indescribable. And the reaction of the participants, when they are unleashed at the end, is amazing.

9. Competition "Ships enter the harbor" (for the fastest)

A lot of people in their childhood dreamed of being ship captains. This contest can help make unfulfilled dreams come true.

You will need several boxes of matches painted in the form of boats. You can even make sails out of matches and a piece of paper. You also need a table with a smooth surface.

The number of participants may be different, because the game will go to a knockout. Two participants put their boats on one edge of the table. They need to bring their ships to the harbor, which is located on the opposite edge of the table. And you can do this by blowing on your ships. Helping yourself with your hands and other objects is prohibited. The boat must not capsize or fall. The one who first brought his ship to the harbor wins. The loser is eliminated from the competition. The winners of the pairs compete with each other. The competition continues until only one captain remains.

When a winter blizzard sweeps outside the window, and the calendar reminds that the holiday of all men, February 23, is approaching, the women's team should devote some time to discussing the future corporate evening. This corporate event, with skillful organization, can bring a lot of positive emotions to the whole team, unite employees, set them up in a friendly way.

After all, only in mutual understanding can work be a joy, so you have a great opportunity to defuse the atmosphere and add a touch of brightness, emotionality, positive and informal communication to it. So, let's start developing a plan for the Defender of the Fatherland Day.

How did the holiday on February 23

More than a century ago, this day was included in the list of the most famous and popular holidays of our country and its friendly republics. In our time, February 23 is called - Defender of the Fatherland Day. And although the holiday date is so majestic and sonorous, it is celebrated not only by those who took part in the hostilities, but by the entire male half of the population.

For more than a hundred years of its existence, the holiday has changed several names:

• Red Gift Day;
• Day of the Soviet Army;
• Red Army Day and others

The modern name appeared not so long ago - in 1995. Then the State Duma adopted the law "On the days of military glory." Since then, February 23 has been called Defender of the Fatherland Day.

But let's move on to more important questions!

Where to begin?

In terms of preparation, a corporate event in honor of February 23 is practically no different from organizing any other corporate event. The list of main tasks to be solved is standard:

1. location;
2. format / style of conducting;
3. decoration of the premises;
4. scenario and entertainment;
5. holiday menu;
6. costings;
7. gifts.

Let's talk about everything in order.

Location

Each team is individual and even the choice of venue will depend on the gender and age composition. In addition to the above, the following factors will also affect:

1. psychological features;
2. Kind of activity;
3. addictions, tastes;
4. budget;
5. the number of participants in the corporate party and so on.

Consequently, the question of choosing a site becomes a kind of foundation for a future event, and its correct choice will determine the outcome of the holiday. For example, office mixed (in which there are both men and women) teams, consisting of 30 or more people, in which workers aged 35 and over, as a rule, prefer:

1. restaurant / banquet hall within the city;
2. a restaurant / banquet hall outside the city with an adjacent territory;
3. concert hall restaurant
4. well-organized catering in nature.

This choice is motivated by the fact that it is easiest to prepare a good holiday for such an audience on these sites. The restaurant will solve the issue of a delicious, hearty menu, the waiters will make sure that the dishes change on time, and the glasses with drinks are always full, the presenter will make sure that no one gets bored, and the show program will delight and surprise all participants. Agree, to solve all these issues at such sites as an office, a bathhouse, nature is much more difficult, and sometimes simply impossible.

Nice atmosphere, fun music, warmth and excellent service. That's what you need for a good corporate party! In our time, you can hang everything on the organizers and employees of the institution. And they will select a good hall, and decorate it in the right style, and serve whatever treats you wish, and even bring a wonderful host. You just have to enjoy and enjoy the men's holiday!

Purely male teams are more free in the choice of venues, since they are not faced with the task of pleasing the female part of the team, they prefer:

• office gatherings;
• club / restaurant / pub;
• sauna / bath;
• a holiday in nature (fishing, barbecue, hunting);
• bowling or billiard clubs.

Since it is less and less clear with restaurants and banquet halls, let's dwell a little more on less popular venues. Below we have presented small emotional sketches of the venues, in which we have placed the most interesting opportunities that such places carry.

In the office

This is one of the most popular venues for any corporate event. Great for small groups, especially middle-aged and younger.

If the dimensions of the office allow, why not celebrate February 23 right here?! With a competent approach to design, your workplace will turn into a real thematic paradise. And most importantly, you won’t have to go to work with a headache in the morning!

Among the advantages that can be seen in this site are the following:

1. no need to solve transportation issues (everyone goes to work every day, so no one will even think that delivery to the place of the holiday should be organized by the enterprise)
2. significant savings in the company's budget
3. saving the personal budget of employees (some enterprises collect corporate contributions from employees)
4. the opportunity to evoke some loyal feelings in the soul of employees towards their workplace (sometimes a holiday at one's workplace is even pleasant).

Alone with nature

If the corporate party plans to be exclusively male, then hunting is a truly male way of relaxing! Just imagine how great it is to hunt a hare (or someone else) on a harsh February day. After that, you can arrange a photo session together, capturing your hunting trophies for a long time! Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of excitement, and then proudly show your friends or your legitimate booty!

Fishing is no worse, for those who find special pleasure in it. No less excitement, but sometimes more impressions! What if you catch a big pike! The main thing is to know good places for winter fishing, to dress warmly and not to forget something hot (well, strong) with you.

Meet in a sporty way

If you are an outdoor enthusiast, you can go to the skating rink, play hockey, go on a snowmobile safari or go on a ski tour. There are many such entertainments. The main thing is to think about where you will go after many hours of fun. Maybe to the office? Or someone's home? Or is it better to go to a good bar or restaurant? The choice is yours.

home atmosphere

If your friendly company has a bachelor with a spacious apartment or someone is the happy owner of a country house, there is no need to look for additional premises. Homes are much more comfortable and convenient than anywhere else. There you can truly relax, have a good rest and mentally have fun. In addition, it is likely that you can spend the night there calmly if you do not want to return to your place.

Bath and sauna

According to statistics, most men go to celebrate Fatherland Defender's Day in a sauna or bath. There you will be provided with a full range of amenities. A hot invigorating steam room, a refreshing pool and other delights. Under unobtrusive music, you can relax with a noisy company, drink good beer and have fun with the whole team.

We decorate the room

If you nevertheless chose a room and decided to build a marafet yourself, we suggest using the following tips.

Try to divide the festive area into historical zones. Each part of the room will be decorated for a certain era. For example, we start from ancient times, having figured out something in the Spartan spirit. Organize a big poster with a volcano, make boulders of papier-mâché. Maybe someone has decorative swords or spears at home, make a helmet out of cardboard and foil. It will turn out great!

Next, we move on to the time of the Musketeers. Try to create an imitation of the walls of an old castle, let them be wrapped in ivy or vines. For complete happiness, crossed swords and a musketeer uniform will not interfere.

To create an atmosphere of the times of the USSR, when decorating, you need to focus on the main attributes of the era of the last century. Set up a sickle-and-canvas flag indoors. Hang posters on the walls with Soviet slogans, images of the heroes of the Great Patriotic War, look for a helmet with an asterisk or make it yourself.

Invitations for a corporate party on February 23

There are many interesting options for invitations on this topic. For example:

Invitation tin soldier. Attach to the figurine a small note with the coordinates (where the corporate party will be held), neatly folded into a tube.
Postcards. Print out some thematic picture, fold it in half, and write the necessary information on the back.

Unusual postcards. For example, in the form of an application. We find thematic pictures, cut them out and paste them on a postcard. Still, as an option, which have gained great popularity, voluminous pictures.

If the above seems complicated, you can get by with traditional invitation cards printed in a print shop or on a good working printer. There are enough samples on the Internet today.

Messenger. It will be great if invitation cards are delivered by a man dressed in a military suit. This will immediately set your colleagues on the right wavelength.

What to cook or a menu for a corporate party on February 23

There are three options in this regard:

1. Thematic. That is, you can serve purely army treats on the table. Stew, sprat, porridge, vegetables, fruits and more.
2. Male. Since the holiday of the strong half of humanity, you can’t do without meat on the table. Let your lovely female colleagues cook you more steaks, French-style meat, fry a fat duck, figure out meat salads. Of course, among the treats there should not be only meat, sweets (which men secretly adore), summer salads, fruits and more will not interfere.
3. Restaurant. If you are planning to celebrate Defender of the Fatherland Day in such an institution, you can order everything that comes to your colleagues’ minds or completely trust the restaurant workers, who will independently select delicious dishes suitable for such a holiday.

What to give the male half on February 23, so as not to get into a mess?

Unfortunately, often women do not make the best choice in gifts, which is why they receive only reactions of amazement and disapproval in response. In order to avoid such a situation, we advise you to use a few good gift ideas for February 23rd.

A great idea is personalized mugs with a photographic or collage image of male colleagues (these can be ordered at any printing house). Personalized flash drives and pens are also suitable here.
Fashionable T-shirts with original inscriptions look creative.

At the same time, a sapper shovel for snow can be a funny and useful gift, after all, winter.
And, finally, probably the best gift would be sports equipment or computer accessories.

But, each team is individual and women, as a more attentive and insightful part of humanity, can and should show their abilities in choosing really desired gifts.

Following such simple rules for organizing a corporate event in honor of Defender of the Fatherland Day will help you turn this holiday into an extravaganza of laughter and positive emotions, into a kaleidoscope of colors and unforgettable impressions. We wish you a happy holiday and good luck in your work!

With an understanding of the problem of the beautiful half on this winter day, I read today all the women's blogs that discussed the topic of celebrating February 23 in the office.

What was your strongest reading experience? How great and diverse is our country :-)!

I wanted to collect all the most interesting and accessible to perform, but soon I realized that the task is insanely difficult, as there are factors on which the entire success of the event depends:

• the amount that women are willing to collect is very different (naturally, the region matters, and the status of the company itself). Judging by the comments, this is from 100 to 2000 rubles.
• the ratio of women / men in the team (there are obvious distortions - 2/15 and vice versa)
• the amount of time for congratulations (if only 20 minutes of a lunch break, what is there to start)
• the venue of the holiday (do you also have 30 square centimeters among the working papers?)
• the presence in the team of a creative person who is ready to take on the role of a leader (if everyone presses against the walls and nods at each other, it’s better to limit yourself to an official toast to men’s health)

Now I share my knowledge, advice and specific proposals for the residents of Moscow.

1. My selection of gifts for February 23

In the past, I worked as a personnel manager in a large holding, I was engaged in the selection of gifts for each holiday for the entire team.

The conclusion is this: everything must be ordered in one large online store with courier delivery to the office, convenient payment options and the possibility of receiving impressive discounts. We decided not to rush about and ordered everything in Ozone. Since then, I have had a restful and healthy sleep.

Affordable Unusual Gifts

For the seventh year in a row, I have been updating a selection of all sorts of interesting gifts for men on Defender of the Fatherland Day. Something quite inexpensive and symbolic, something more expensive (it is quite possible to allow if there are few men in the team).

Personalized gifts with engraving, embossing or printing (personalized)

If it’s important to give a little thing that exists in a single copy, you can make a quick order on the website of individual personalized souvenirs. Just fill out the form with the name, surname or even a nickname in social networks, choose a gift. The courier will bring everything directly to the office. These are personalized flash drives, wallets, cool souvenirs, bottles, glasses, diaries, etc.

2. How to congratulate (9 options)

Choose the most suitable option, all programs can be held in the office, loft, cafe. There are programs for 2-3 hours (this can be arranged at the end of the working day), there are short ones - for 15-40 minutes. If it is impossible to distract all men from work at the same time, arrange master class zones.

1. Everyone cares (literally)

This is a cool master class (can be organized in a team building format), where all participants will learn to “catch the rhythm” with the help of percussion and bass drums.

It's loud, it's better to spend it in a separate office space.

There are still free presenters for congratulations on February 21, 2020 after 4 pm (if the office is inside the Moscow Ring Road).

2. Intellectual and entertaining team games

Intellectual games for February 23 are often ordered from us. Do not be afraid that at the end of the working day you will be forced to rack your brains for 2 hours in a row. These are entertainment events that can be held in the office or in a cafe right during the feast. Lovers of "What? Where? When?”, “Mafia”, “Guess the melody”. There are also programs for those with powerful intuition and moviegoers.

Here (I remind you, we are in Moscow). There are different levels of intelligence and humor, we will select individually.

If you want to think less and laugh more, . Party with 8 rounds inspired by TV entertainment.

3. Art parties

I tried to capture the essence of such an event in the title. This is not just a master class where each participant will paint a positive picture. The organizers tried to combine creativity with a full palette of bright emotions. It's fun, educational and very unique. You can combine the celebration of February 23 and March 8 together.

You can spend such a holiday in the office, loft, restaurant, bar. More about . Paint an overall corporate masterpiece, create a picture gallery for the office, or create custom paintings.

Participation in a master class for 20 people will cost the same amount if one master conducts, and the participants are divided into two groups (60 minutes for one group, 60 minutes for the second). If it is important that the master class be held simultaneously for all 20 people, the presence of another master is required. The cost will increase by 10,000 rubles.
Duration - 60-120 minutes (depending on the desire of the participants, the cost for 1-2 hours is the same).
