Hens Party Games

Hens Party Games in Auckland

Looking for some great Hens party games ideas for your hens party in Auckland or another part of New Zealand? We are Gobananas can help you out with ideas and also plan your day. Check out our party favourites below, a mix of naughty or nice, so you decide how you want your party to run.
Need help with your activities and where to do your hen games – check out the rest of the website.
Pop the Question
Think about all the things you want to know about the bride or better yet think about what you know that you think will be funny for everyone else to know…
What you will need:

  • Enough balloons for everyone to have one each
  • A small piece of paper for every hen
  • A pin for the bride

Give everyone in at the hens party a piece of paper that is small enough to be rolled up and put inside the balloon, take the time to write your carefully thought about question for the bride to be. Once you have decided and written it down, roll it up, put inside the balloon and blow it up. Put all the balloons in the centre of the room, let the bride lose with the pin, whatever balloon she pops she needs to answer the question, if she chooses not to she has to complete a default penalty.
Toilet Paper run way
The most common hens party game out. It’s easy, it’s fun and creates a lot of laughs
What you will need:

  • Rolls and rolls of toilet paper

Divide your party into even teams. Probably best to limit the group size to around 4. Each team will select a model, the rest of the players need to design and create the best wedding dress they can using only toilet paper. Give them a time limit of say 10 minutes and then the models can strut there stuff down the run way while there team mates describe the dress, the inspiration and all the selling points. The Bride can choose the winners.

Ice Cube Melters
Who has the ability to think outside of the square? See who can come up with the most creative way to melt ice cubes.
What you will need:

  • Ice cubes – enough for each team to melt 5 ice cubes each

Split your hens party into groups, it’s up to you how many ladies per team it may depend on how big your group is. You need to select one person to be the referee. To play, the referee hands one ice cube to a team member, it is then up to the team to melt that ice cube using only skin contact – it cannot be put in your mouth or using any external props. Once you have melted your ice cube the referee will hand you the next cube. The first team to melt 5 cubes in the quickest amount of time is the winner. The referee can decide the penalty for the losing teams or the prize for the winners.

Peggy Sue
This is a great hen game that lasts the whole party or for however long you want it to. It is sure to keep everyone on their toes and in stiches laughing.
What you need:

  • A clothes peg

The aim of the game is to get the peg onto an unsuspecting hen without her knowledge. Once you have attached it to her (the trickier the spot the better so think outside the box, eg. Clothes, hair) without her catching you out shout “Peggy Sue” and then begin a countdown from 10-1. Everyone at the hens party then needs to check themselves to ensure they haven’t been caught out. If the hen doesn’t find the peg before the countdown ends then she has to face a penalty at your discretion.
Maltesers
A simple hen game that gets everyone involved and includes chocolate, what more could you want?
What you need:

  • A big bag of maltesers
  • Enough drinking straws for everyone at the hens party
  • A big bowl and a small bowl

Place the bag of maltesers in the big bowl in the middle of the table and watch your hens crowd around. Give everyone a straw, what happens is everyone takes turns to use the straw to suck out as many maltesers as they can in 30 seconds. The Hen with the most maltesers at the end is the winner.

Hens Party Themes

Hens Party Themes

Make your hens party one to be remembered by giving it a theme. Dressing up is always fun and once you’ve picked your theme you’re free to let your imagination run wild when it comes to decorations, games and activities. It can also help with deciding on a venue. Keep in mind that your theme may limit where you can go and what you can do, for example fine dining restaurants may not want people dressed up as a naughty nurse sitting in the main room. Coming up with a theme is the hard part but we have some ideas to hopefully make it a little easier. Maybe think about including the hen in this decision, so she can spend her last weekend of freedom dressed however she wants.
Personal to the Hen
You could make the party theme specific to the bride to be. Maybe the theme could be the first letter of her name, her favourite sport or activity, or her favourite place ie. The beach.
Retro theme
Step back in time and break out the bell bottom pants and tie dye. The great thing about this theme is that most of the outfits from back in the 60’s are back in fashion now.
Favourite celebrity theme
Come along dressed up as your fav celebrity, whether its Madonna, Marilyn Munroe or Lady Gaga, spend the night living like the person you always dreamed of being.
Naughty and nice theme
Dress up as a naughty nurse, cheeky nun or angel. This theme is sure to catch the eye of passers by.
Coloured theme
This is probably one of the simplest themes for people to dress up for and also to decorate the venue, pick a colour and get to it. Maybe use the hens favourite colour.
Fantasy job theme

Have you ever wanted to be a police officer, fireman, school teacher well now is your time to dress up and play the part.

Sex and the city theme

Bring on the cosmos and couture! Dress up like Carrie and the girls and enjoy an evening of the finer things in life, fancy shoes and lots of bling. This is the night to bring out that piece of designer clothing that you have never had any use for but simply HAD TO HAVE!

Gatsby hens theme
Get the champagne flowing and the fairy lights strung for this theme. Dust off the headpiece, bring out the 1920’s dresses and don’t forget the high heels. Dress up like the ladies in the movie Great Gatsby or ladies in Moulin Rouge Paris. Plenty of inspiration. This is a fun theme to work with and plenty of activities to go with it as well. Think Burlesque dancing lesson, cabaret shows etc.

Some of these third parties generate their own cookies (or web beacons) to track how many people have seen a particular advertisement (or use the services of third parties to do this), and to track how many people have seen it more than once. These cookies cannot be used to identify an individual; they can only be used for statistical purposes, for example, in providing you with advertisements that are more relevant to your interests. Some of the information gleaned from third party cookies will be aggregated with other anonymous information for statistical purposes. The third party companies that generate these cookies have their own, very strict, privacy policies but we don't have access to these cookies; other than allowing them to be served, we have no role to play in these cookies at all (although we may use statistical information arising from these third party cookies and provided to us by third parties, to improve the targeting of advertisements to users of the website).

6.2 If you would like to disable "third party" cookies generated by advertisers or providers of targeted advertising services, you can turn them off by going to the third party's website and getting them to generate a one-time "no thanks" cookie that will stop any further cookies being written to your machine. Here are links to the two main third party advertising platforms we use, each of which haveinstructions on how to do this:
