13 Group Date Ideas That Will Totally Break the Ice
Because sometimes a one-on-one is too much to handle.
Picture this: after months of pining, your crush finally asks you out, and you couldn't be more excited, but then, you realize, you're TERRIFIED of spending all that alone time with them. Don't worry, that's literally what group dates were made for. Invite some friends along to the date and encourage your crush to do so too. You will have a blast together and by the time date number two comes around, you'll be craving one-on-one time with your crush. Need some ideas for the big group date? These 13 ideas will for sure be a huge hit.
Hike
Get out in the great outdoors and go on a hike. It doesn't have to be an intense one, even just a walk through the woods in your backyard is a fun way to explore nature with your friends. Bring some snacks for when you're ready to take a break, of course, and don't forget to snap some pics.
Amusement Park
Head over to the closest amusement park by you and get ready for an afternoon of fun rides and games. The good thing about going with a group to an amusement park is that when you go on a ride, you have to split up in pairs, which is a non-awkward way to get some alone time with your crush.
Ice Skating
Bundle up and head on to the ice with your friends for the perfect group date. Don't forget to stop for hot chocolate when you're done (that's the best part IMO).
Movie Night
Head out to the movie theater or invite everyone over to squeeze on your couch and watch a movie. Hint: maybe try a scary movie and make sure to sit next to your crush, that way you have the perfect excuse to grab onto them when you're spooked!
Concert
It's almost impossible to not have fun at a concert. Pick a band that all of your friends want to see, and then enjoy the night listening to great music and getting to know your crush. You'll be bonding in no time.
Art Class
Get your hands dirty at an art class. You'll be able to express yourself creatively in front of your crush, plus you can gift them whatever you make at the end of the date!
Game Night
Don't want to spend a lot of money on your group date? Then invite everyone over for a game night. This will also provide a lot of opportunities for the group to pair up, so you will get some quality time with your crush.
Beach Hang
Grab some snacks, a blanket, and a speaker and head to the beach with your pals. If it's nice out you can jump in the water, but even if it's not beach weather, you can still snuggle up together, chat and have lots of laughs.
Sports Game
Nothing is more fun than heading to a sporting event with friends. Root for your team while your enjoy cotton candy and hot dogs. There will be no time for awkward silences with your crush because you will both be too busy cheering.
Bowling
Get competitive at the bowling alley with your friends. Order some snacks to your lane, tighten your bowling shoes, and get ready for a fun night.
Laser Tag
There's is nothing more fun than running around and shooting your friends with lasers, let me tell you. Get flirty with your crush by sneaking up on them, or play on the same team and gang up on everyone else!
Mini Golfing
Mini golfing is so much fun, and the more friends there, the better. Get your best victory dance ready because you're going to want to show off your dance moves to your crush when you get a hole in one.
Pool Party
Grab your cutest bikini and head to the pool for an afternoon with your friends and crush. Hop on their shoulders for a game of chicken, or blast the tunes and have a water dance party. You'll get a tan and get more comfortable around your crush at the same time. It's a win-win!
