Groovy Disco Party Games for a Funkadelic Time
Disco Dance-Off:
What better way to relive the glory days of disco than by having an all-out disco dance-off? Have your guests shake their groove thing while a panel of judges (or possibly, everyone attending the party) vote on the best dancers.
You can even have multiple rounds, with individuals, pairs, or groups competing against one another. Cap off the event by awarding the winners with some fab disco-related gifts, like a disco ball or a sequined outfit.

Disco Costume Contest:
This game is all about encouraging your guests to dress for disco party success! Encourage everyone to come dressed in their best disco attire (think platform shoes, bell-bottom pants, and anything that glimmers under a disco ball).
Have a designated area for a photo booth or runway, where guests can showcase their disco outfits, and a panel of judges (or again, everyone) can vote on their favorites. Award the winners with amazing, glitzy prizes that they can take home as a funky souvenir.

Disco Trivia:
Test your guests' knowledge of disco culture, history, and music with a disco-themed trivia game. From iconic disco tunes and their artists to defining moments in disco history, there are a plethora of subjects to cover. Divide your guests into teams and have a series of questions or quiz rounds prepared.
The winning team can take home a disco-related gift, such as a compilation album or a book on disco history.
Disco Dance Tutorials:
Disco has no age limit, and some younger guests at your party may not be familiar with those signature disco dance moves. Hiring a local dance instructor or finding instructional videos online can provide a fun and interactive way to teach your guests how to groove like a true disco star.
Plus, this activity can serve as a warmup for the dance floor, ensuring everybody knows how to bust a move to that funky beat.
