“Oh, What a Year” Dinner Game

Are you ready for an evening full of nostalgia, hilarious challenges, and debates about which era really had the best music? Then the “Oh, What a Year” Dinner Game is exactly what you’re looking for. Choose your favorite decade in advance—the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, ’90s, or 2000s—and let the journey through time begin. The fun starts well before the party. Along with the invitation, all guests receive a clear mission: show up fully dressed in the style of the chosen era. So dig those shoulder pads, tracksuits, platform shoes, or glittery shirts out of the closet. The best-dressed team receives bonus points right away, which usually means the first enthusiastic text messages and creative outfit plans start weeks in advance. There’s always a coworker who says, “I don’t do costumes.” That same coworker then shows up dressed as a full-on Elvis, Madonna, or Spice Girl.

Upon arrival, you’ll step into a party hall that’s been completely transformed to capture the atmosphere of your chosen decade. Old advertising posters, familiar objects, iconic images, and nostalgic decorations are sure to bring back memories. Within five minutes, you’re guaranteed to hear someone say: “We used to have a phone like that at home!” or “I still have that VHS tape in the attic.” Then the competition begins. During the dinner game, hilarious quiz questions, surprising hands-on challenges, and nostalgic games take turns. Who still remembers how a Walkman works? Which team knows all the lyrics from the ’90s? And who turns out to be surprisingly good at a challenge that no one ever expected would come in handy again? In the meantime, between game rounds, you’ll enjoy a delicious dinner, so your inner self won’t go hungry either.

Want to make the evening even more unforgettable? Then the program can easily be expanded. Let the afterparty kick off afterward and dance together to the biggest classics from back in the day. Or make the game extra personal with questions, photos, and videos from your own organization. And of course, a professional photographer can capture all the legendary moments. Especially handy for that colleague who claims the next morning that he “really didn’t participate” in the dance contest. The “Oh, What a Year” Dinner Game can be organized at partner venues throughout the Netherlands and Belgium or right at your own location. Perfect for a company outing, staff party, team-building event, or anniversary celebration. One thing is certain: the winner may take home the grand prize, but the greatest reward comes the following Monday, when people at the coffee machine are still talking about that tacky outfit, that unexpected music quiz… and that manager who turned out to know absolutely every step of the Macarena by heart.
