Time To Tuck Into Some Online Entertainment

So the indoors is our new norm, and it seems it’s going to be that way for a while still, if you haven’t had a look at the different virtual entertainment options then maybe it’s time to start branching out.

There are a few ways you can stay productive and entertained during the phased easing of lockdown. Here are a few online classes, shows and games you can enjoy with friends and family to distract you from your cabin fever: 

GAMES NIGHT


An online pub quiz that also works to give back to the fight against the spread of COVID-19, Spectacular Quarantine Quizzes connects participants across the globe for weekly themed quiz nights. Your team’s entry fee becomes a direct donation to frontline workers such as disaster relief personnel and medical staff. If you don’t back your knowledge on sports, there is a musical quiz. Potterheads can do their best at weekly witchcraft and wizardry competitions, and the Disney quiz night will test how much trivia you’ve accumulated over the years. How much do you know about Detective Jake Peralta’s knowledge of all six of the Die Hard films? Find out when you and your crew compete in the Brooklyn Nine-Nine quiz.

A virtual game especially for the linguists. Words with Friends is a multiplayer game similar to scrabble.

ART EVENING


Art lovers must be desperate for some face-to-face gallery action. The group that curates First Thursday across the country every month, managed to take the creative experience online for the month of April.
