If you’re planning a fall party and want something more entertaining than just standing around with drinks, these fall drinking games are an easy way to get everyone involved.
Here you’ll find cozy indoor drinking games, outdoor party favorites, and printable options you can set up in minutes.
Grab some apple cider, pumpkin beer, or your favorite fall drink and choose a few games for the night!
Apple Cider Pong
Give classic beer pong a fall upgrade by filling the cups with hard apple cider.
Set up the cups in triangles at opposite ends of a table, then take turns trying to land a ping-pong ball in the other team’s cups.
You can play outside on a crisp fall afternoon or bring everything indoors once it gets cold.
Just know that cider can get sticky, so this probably isn’t the game to play over your nicest rug!
Pumpkin Beer Taste Test
Pick up several pumpkin beers or other seasonal drinks and cover the labels before the party.
Pour a small sample of each one and have everyone guess the brand, flavor, or ingredients.
Award one point for every correct answer.
You can also vote for the best and worst drink of the night, since opinions on pumpkin beer tend to be surprisingly strong!
Most Likely To Drinking Game
Most Likely To is a super-simple drinking game that people love!
Players write down the name of the person in the group who is most likely to do each thing.
Once everyone has finished, compare answers and see who received the most votes.
For each statement, the person with the most votes takes a sip!
Fall Movie Drinking Game
Choose a cozy fall movie, Halloween comedy, or delightfully predictable seasonal romance.
Before pressing play, create a few rules based on things likely to happen in the movie.
Players might drink whenever someone wears flannel, a small town holds a festival, leaves fall dramatically, or two people almost kiss before being interrupted.
Keep the sips small because some fall movies take their clichés very seriously.
Drinking Dice Game
A printable Drinking Dice Game makes it easy to start playing without gathering a long list of supplies.
Players roll the dice and follow the matching instruction, which could tell them to take a drink, choose another player, or complete a challenge.
This works especially well for a small fall game night because there are no teams to organize and almost no setup.
Print the game, find two dice, and you’re ready to go!
Fall Would You Rather
Prepare a list of fall-themed choices and take turns answering them.
Try questions like, “Would you rather spend the night in a haunted house or sleep alone in the woods?” and “Would you rather drink only pumpkin spice lattes or apple cider for the rest of fall?”
After answering, anyone who chose the less popular option takes a drink.
(You will also learn exactly how passionately your friends feel about candy corn!)
Apple Bobbing Drink Relay
Skip the shared tub of bobbing apples and create a cleaner relay instead. Place apples in individual bowls or buckets of water, then have one player from each team retrieve an apple without using their hands.
Once they finish, they take a sip of their drink and tag the next teammate.
The first team to complete the relay wins. Play this one outside because everyone will insist they can do it without making a mess.
(And they will be WRONG!)
Drink If Game
Drink If is one of the easiest games to add to a fall party.
Read each statement aloud and anyone who relates takes a drink.
Nobody has to think of questions on the spot or learn rules halfway through the evening.
This printable version keeps the game moving and makes it easy for everyone to participate.
It also works as an icebreaker when some guests know each other well, and others have only just met.
Fall Song Drinking Game
Create a playlist filled with songs that mention autumn, September, cold weather, changing seasons or anything else that feels like fall.
Choose a word or rule for each song, then take a sip whenever it comes up.
You could also divide into teams and have everyone race to name the song and artist.
The team that guesses incorrectly drinks, which is much more fun than quietly arguing over who should control the playlist!
Tipsy Pumpkin Bowling
Use small pumpkins as bowling balls and empty plastic bottles as pins.
Set everything up in the backyard or driveway, then take turns trying to knock down as many pins as possible.
Players take a sip for every pin left standing.
Choose round pumpkins without long stems, and don’t use anything you planned to carve later.
After several trips down the driveway, that pumpkin is going to look tired.
