Large Group Human Bingo Ice breaker

Large Group Human Bingo Ice breaker: This is how to set up and run Human Bingo for a large group of hundreds of people. There are several reasons you might use it, with the primary one being to save time and provide an activity that helps people get out of their bubbles. This is especially useful for employees from different departments or teams, or guests who need to interact and connect with someone new from another department, team, or group.

Getting people out of their bubbles and encouraging interaction with each other, especially in groups of 100, 200, 300, or even 1,000 people, can be a challenge. Human Bingo works well for groups of 50 people or less; however, with 100 or more people, the Human Bingo App becomes one of the best quick and easy icebreakers for large groups.

Getting people out of their bubbles and encouraging them to interact with one another is good. Making sure it’s meaningful and helps bond the group is even better, and Human Bingo for large groups is a simple way to maximize interaction during the networking session of your event.

The human bingo app is a simple and easy icebreaking activity for large groups to get people talking and interacting with people from other departments and/or teams attending your event from different locations (cities, countries, etc).

Because the last thing you want is for everyone to be siloed and sticking with the people they came with, or for the networking session to feel awkward and uncomfortable.

Jam Bingo takes paper human bingo and turns it into an interactive networking game where the goal is to interact and learn something new about someone else.

Jam Bingo is the go-to interaction app for ice breaking sessions and one of the best mingling games for large groups.

When to use Human Bingo (Paper) vs the Human Bingo App: For any group size over 100 people, and especially when attendees are coming from different departments, cultures, countries, or even different cities, the app is the better choice. This is most important when there is a need to help people step outside their “bubble” and get to know others from different departments, locations, or groups.

• A screen to display the game QR code (or a printed-out game QR code)
• Wi-Fi at the venue
• If you have Wi-Fi and a way to display the game QR code, you can create a Human Bingo using Jam Bingo. Create a Jam Bingo!

The facilitator can be you or one of your colleagues, and here’s the TL;DR -

• The facilitator role takes 2 minutes, and it can be you (or a colleague) who owns this role.
• During your dedicated mingle and icebreaker time, the facilitator gathers everyone’s attention to play the networking game.
• You change slides on your presentation to show the game QR code, and ask everyone to scan.
• Wait 30 - 50 seconds, then ask everyone to stand up and “Let’s Jam” to kick off the networking session.

It’s best to have a 30-minute to 1-hour time block for the networking session. On average, as people play, they meet new people, and depending on how many people you want each person to connect with, Jam Bingo can easily fill a 30-minute or even 1-hour session.

There’s no added setup or extra work for you as the host. The game facilitates conversation and gets people talking, helping people get out of their shell and interact with new people.

Will there be food (breakfast/lunch/dinner)? If you’ll have breakfast/lunch/dinner, it’s best to run your networking session before or after. It’s often better to do it before because everyone is ready to go. If you choose to run the networking session after eating, keep in mind that people finish eating at different times, which means you’ll have to wait until everyone is done. You don’t want to run a networking activity while people are eating, since it won’t work well with some people ready to network while others are still eating.

Displaying the Jam Bingo game QR code can happen during the networking session. You can include the QR code as part of your slide presentation, or if you need to print it out, you can display it at the entrance of the venue as people arrive, or place it around the room.

Jam Bingo, the human bingo app, works by giving each person conversation challenges and prompts to use to talk and interact with someone new. These challenges and prompts help guide people to connect.

You can customize these prompts to fit your group and the theme of your event.

The mingling begins the moment you say “Let’s Jam,” and people start talking and interacting with one another as they work to complete their conversation challenges and prompts.

The goal of every mingling activity is for people to connect with each other and with new people they might not otherwise have considered connecting with. For a large group, Jam Bingo, the human bingo app, acts as one of the most effective mingle games for large groups.
