10 Fun Event Gamification Ideas to Make Your Event More Engaging
Are you an event planner looking to take your events to the next level? Every organizer wishes that their events are one of a kind events that the attendees won’t stop talking about even after the occasion. In reality, though, you might need an extra layer to get event-goers’ attention throughout the whole event. Gamification is a proven way to increase attendee engagement and participation, and with the right tools and ideas, you can create a truly unforgettable event experience. Here are 10 fun event gamification ideas to help you get started:
1. Scavenger Hunts
Scavenger hunts are a classic gamification activity that can be easily adapted for events. With PlayTours, you can create custom scavenger hunts that encourage attendees to explore the event and engage with sponsors and vendors.
How To Set Up: Create a list of tasks or missions that attendees can complete to earn points. These tasks can include taking photos with vendors, finding hidden items around the event, or answering trivia questions. All you need is PlayTours, a scavenger hunt app to build a customized one. Use it to set up the scavenger hunt and track participant progress.
What Needs To Be Prepared: Before the event, make sure to coordinate with vendors and sponsors to ensure they are aware of the scavenger hunt and ready to participate. Create custom leaderboards that track players’ progress and participation. You may also want to prepare prizes for the winners.
2. Photo Mission
For attendees to get interacted with each other, give them a mission like taking a group selfie together, and submit it to get points. They would approach other attendees for a group selfie mission and this could lead to networking. This could also help as an ice-breaking game.
How To Set Up: By using PlayTours app on mobile, players can take/upload a photo or video and submit it, then submissions will get tracked and verified by a facilitator. Once it has been verified, points will be added automatically, and the system will generate who the winner is.
