Need Disney-themed Game Ideas for Adults

[Narnia_girl]

I work for a small symphony orchestra and we are thrilled to finally be able to offer one of Disney's concerts to our community. Before the concert we will have games/crafts for kids, but I'd also like to have a couple of booths for adults to participate.

Anyone have ideas for simple games or activities for adults...something where they could walk up to a booth or area, join in the activity, and then move on after five minutes or so? I was thinking, pick a trivia card, answer, get a small prize. But I'm sure there are more creative ideas than that!
Anyone?

Also, alcohol is not an option, our venue is a public school.
thanks!

I kind of like this idea that uses song lyrics. This one is themed to Frozen, but you could expand it to include a variety of Disney songs.

The original activity was for a scavenger hunt, where the answers were the clues, but I kind of like it as just a missing word trivia game. Depending upon the space where you are hosting the event, you could potentially turn it into a very simple scavenger hunt and have people return with their answers to receive a simple prize. Even if it is one large room, there should still be fixtures or wall decorations or some other type of thing that you could have them seek out.

Offbeat has a quiz for "Can you identify this Disney movie from a screen shot?" which might be fun and all you would have to do is print out some movie images. The same kind of thing could be done with a character quiz instead...have some common ones mixed with a few lesser-known characters, but nothing too overly difficult.

I also love this idea from Oh My Disney, where you identify characters based on 5 words they have said. Guess the Disney Character from These Five Words.

For something less competitive, you could print out some Disney-themed Mad Libs. You could make your own Mad Libs using lyrics to Disney songs, where you remove certain words and use those as the fill-in-the-blanks. (I hope that makes sense.) You could have the songs be dry erase or just print out multiple copies.

My brain keeps trying to figure out some way that you could do a magnetic poetry activity using Disney words on one of those large, magnetic dry erase boards, but I'm not sure how that would play out. Maybe you have some ideas and can flesh this out a bit. There has got to be a way to print out a bunch of words onto magnetic sheets.

Anyway, those are just a few ideas off the top of my head. I'm sure others will have much better suggestions. I'm not feeling overly creative at the moment.

Hmmmm...I really thought you would have had at least a few more suggestions to help you along. One of the things that I thought might be helpful for brainstorming ideas, would be to check out what kinds of games/activities that companies do for trade shows, since they are trying to do the same thing that you are doing. Not all of the activities are transferable, but you might find something that sparks an idea. As an example, I came across this list of Best Trade Show Game Ideas. I thought the matching contest sounded kind of neat. I'm not sure how that would work with your set-up, but instead of stickers for people to wear, you could hand out small cards with a Disney-inspired picture on it (or even words...find another person who has the word "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"). You could even morph this into something like "Find your match," where Belle needs to match with Beast, for example.

I love Disney as much as the next person, but I like to keep my Disney superpowers in WDW. I wouldn't participate in an adult game/activity and a children's event. Hence the lack of responses....I feel I'm not alone in this opinion.

@Frozen Canuck , Thanks so much for your clever ideas. I"m going to suggest these to our planning group.

I don't think we will have any problem with adults participating in activities. We did something similar at our Super Heroes concert and had a packed lobby.
