You might want a chance to socialize over something more fun and interesting, where you do something a little different. It could be that you haven’t seen each other in a while, maybe you want to celebrate a birthday or a special occasion, or perhaps it’s just a weekend and you’re all free.

Do some karaoke
When it comes to a group activity that is going to get you all up on your feet, dancing, laughing, and having fun, it is hard to top karaoke. Even those who swear they don’t like singing and will never do so in public will find themselves swayed and enjoying themselves in no time! Go for a couple of cocktails first to build up a bit of Dutch courage, then you’ll be fighting over the mic to sing some of the best karaoke classics around!
Go to a wine tasting
Wine tasting is another great way to spend an evening with friends. You could find a local vineyard that does wine tasting, or perhaps you could go to a bar that offers it? Wine tasting is fun to spend time together, try some new wines and have a good catch up while learning something new. You tend to get some nibbles or small bites with your tasting and you’ll be surprised at just how quickly the time goes! No matter if you’re interested in finding out more about different wines, or you just want to drink it, this is an activity you’ll love as a group for a night out.
Try a paint and sip class
A paint and sip class is when you get together with others for an art class and can have some drinks at the same time. There are plenty of different ones out there depending on what you’re after and you don’t need to be an artist or even good at art to have a really good time. Your teacher will guide you through the steps and you will create a masterpiece to take home and have a great time with your friends.
These are just a few things you can do that can provide you with a really fun evening that you and your friends are sure to love. Whether there is a big group of you or just a few, this will provide the premise for hours of fun and memories to be made that will last a lifetime.
