Evening Activities at Hotels and Resorts: Glow Disc Games

Hotels and resorts usually offer plenty to do during the day: water sports, pool games, crafts, excursions and contests. At night the list gets shorter. Not everyone wants a show or a lounge.

A glowing disc as an option

A disc lit by glowsticks can fill that gap. It works on lawns, beaches and sand, and the glow is not affected by water, so it can even be used in pools and the sea.

How a property could use it

The archived page suggested several approaches, which are offered here as ideas only:

• a disc with the hotel’s name as a souvenir of the stay
• rental of discs at an activity desk, with extra sticks in different colours
• structured games led by staff at dusk
• discs as prizes in contests

Why it fits

It needs little space, no training and no electricity, and it works for mixed ages.

Tips for organisers

Choose a safe, well-lit approach to the play area, keep it clear of paths and guests who are not playing, and explain the safety notes at the start. For more, read about where to play and kids’ activities.
