Providing one-of-a-kind events can be mighty tough. That’s why we’re here! We enthusiastically do the heavy lifting so your group enjoys social entertainment while you focus on other priorities. Here’s how we help:
To begin with - We LOVE what we do! Here's how we found our passion.
Our fascination with social entertainment originated growing up in small towns with no fun nearby. It developed through college and 14 years of managing movie theaters & amusement parks.
As our work experience progressed to lead bigger businesses and live in larger cities, our passion increased with it! However, the more people we entertained and lived near, the less real connections we experienced. This led us to wonder if the power of entertainment could be used to effectively connect people through events that are comfortable, fun, AND social? Our enthusiastic solution was Switchboard Games!
Our name was created with old school Switchboard Operators in mind. Just like them, we are dedicated to "connecting" people. But instead of using cables and phones, we use fun and games!
In 2016, we began leading in-person events (with a host on-site) that were designed to encourage small group interactions. Various forms of themed entertainment were spread out at multiple stations. Each round saw friendly people switch stations and make new friends while enjoying different types of fun.
When social distancing became necessary in 2020, we pivoted to remotely hosting hybrid, in-person, and virtual events through video calls. It was exciting to see that our one-of-a-kind brand of game nights, trivia, social bingo, game shows, creative fun, & themed events work perfectly in these formats!
We're thrilled to bring people together when they need each other the most. What's more, we now have the ability to entertain/connect groups across the world and the experience needed to exceed expectations. Needless to say, we truly love what we do, the leaders we assist, and the people we connect along the way!
"Using Switchboard Games for my virtual events has made my life easier as an Activities Director, and provided us with options for things we would not have been able to do in-house. The hosts are engaging and fun, and my students always have a great time during these events. As a college with a huge online population, this has given us the opportunity to connect students from all across the country."

They were fantastic and our host Donna did a wonderful job bringing the holiday spirit and keeping everyone engaged! We were able to personalize the event with employee related questions and how many rounds/timing we wanted to do. Overall, the event couldn't have gone more smooth from start to finish and we absolutely recommend them!"
