Draft an epic playlist of party games and then compete throughout the events to find and crown your eventual champion!

What is Playoff Party?

Playoff Party is a competitive events platform that helps you organise, manage, and track competitions for any gathering. From birthday parties to corporate events, we provide the tools to turn your meet-ups into epic showdowns with professional tournament management, automated scoring, and real-time leaderboards.

It's simple! You create an event, choose from a huge library of pre-made games or add your own, invite your friends, and start playing. Playoff Party handles the scoring, leaderboards, and tournament brackets automatically, so you can focus on the fun.

How much does Playoff Party cost?

Playoff Party offers a Free plan that includes 1 event per month with up to 1 custom game. Our Premium plan costs just £19.99/year and includes unlimited events, unlimited custom games, photo galleries, custom branding, and advanced tournament features.

What types of events can I create?

You can create any type of competitive event! Popular uses include birthday parties, stag/hen parties, family gatherings, corporate team building, gaming nights, and social leagues. Our game library includes dozens of activities for all ages and group sizes.

I'm planning a birthday party. How can Playoff Party help?

Playoff Party is perfect for birthday parties! It adds a layer of structured, competitive fun that guests of all ages will love. You can create a 'Birthday Championship', pick games that suit your theme, and even let the birthday person choose the final, deciding game. It's a fantastic ice-breaker and creates memorable moments.

Can this be used for corporate team-building events?

Absolutely. It's a powerful tool for team building. You can create team-vs-team competitions, track departmental scores, and foster friendly competition. It's much more engaging than traditional trust falls and encourages communication and strategy.

Why is Playoff Party great for a stag or hen do?

It turns a standard stag or hen party into a legendary competition. It provides a central activity that runs throughout the day or weekend, keeping everyone engaged. You can theme the entire event, and the automated scoring means no one has to worry about keeping track of points on a soggy napkin.

Can we create our own custom, slightly embarrassing games?

100%! The 'Add Custom Game' feature is practically designed for this. You have complete freedom to create and describe your own challenges, making the event truly personal and hilarious. The groom-to-be won't know what hit him.

Is it easy to manage with a large, rowdy group?

Yes, that's a key benefit. As the host, you control the event from your phone. You can update scores, move to the next game, and post updates for everyone to see. The live leaderboard keeps everyone invested and competitive, even after a few drinks.

How do tournaments work?

Playoff Party supports multiple tournament formats including elimination brackets, time trials, team vs team battles, group heats with finals, ranked competitions, and judged events. We automatically generate brackets, track scores, and update leaderboards in real-time.

How does scoring work?

Our standard system awards points for top placements in each game (e.g., 1st place gets 10 points, 2nd gets 6, etc.). These points are automatically tallied on the main event leaderboard, so you always know who's in the lead for the overall crown.

Do I have to use the games in the library?

Not at all! While our library is a great starting point, you can add any game you can imagine using the 'Add Custom Game' feature when creating an event. This gives you unlimited flexibility.

Can I suggest new games to be added to the library?

Yes! We love hearing your ideas and review all suggestions. We frequently add the best community ideas to the official Game Library for everyone to enjoy. Premium subscribers can submit unlimited game suggestions, while users on the Free plan can suggest up to 3 games. You can suggest a game from the Game Library page.

What is the difference between the Free and Premium plans?

Our Free plan is great for getting started with casual competitions.
