Festafetti

New Year's Eve Bingo

New Year's Eve has a long stretch before the countdown, and one shared bingo board is done in two matches. Type a few words about the year and the night, and Festafetti gives every guest a different card, so the room plays through the wait to a real winner instead of stalling before midnight.

Free to preview. One payment per party to print. No account.

How Festafetti makes new year's eve bingo

  • You type one list of words. A 3x3 card needs eight, a 4x4 needs sixteen, a 5x5 needs twenty-four.
  • Festafetti shuffles your list into a different card for every guest, up to 200, so no two boards match.
  • Odd boards, the 3x3 and the 5x5, carry a free center square, the way party bingo always has.
  • Cards print two to a US Letter sheet with a dashed cut line down the middle.

What you get

Words to put on New Year's Eve bingo

Examples to start from. Festafetti prints the list you type, nothing else.

One thing hosts forget: Run bingo early in the night. Save the quieter games for the last hour, so the party has something going right up to the countdown.
