Year-End Event Ideas: Engage Your Audience with LINE and the Big Screen

Year-end parties and spring banquets mean more in-person events. Want a simple way to get every guest interacting through their phones and the venue's big screen? This article shows how live polls and prize draws can energize the room and make your event far more fun.

Big-screen polling

As the name suggests, big-screen polling runs a poll on the venue's main screen during an in-person event. Attendees see the questions and live results on the screen and cast their votes from their phones. It works in a wide range of settings: entertainment events such as year-end parties and weddings, as well as seminars and on-site surveys.

Take a year-end party: you can prepare a few simple questions or riddles, have every employee in the room answer on their phones, and show the answer breakdown on the big screen in real time. Staff can also set the correct answer for each question and reveal it once everyone has responded.

Here are a few big-screen polling services:

Big-screen prize draws

No year-end party is complete without a prize draw. Running it on the main-stage screen lets everyone share the suspense and excitement together.

Because everyone cares about the prize draw, system stability should be a top priority. A system that might crash or glitch can ruin the mood on the spot and even lead to compensation claims or disputes, so choose carefully.
