The year 2022 is coming to an end in a few days, and with things somehow going back to a little normalcy, a lot of people are anticipating going all out with their New Year's Eve plans.
However, there are still people who do not like the loudness of firecrackers and the noise outside, and would rather stay at home to immerse themselves in fun techie activities.
If the latter description applies to you, here are some ways you can party this New Year's Eve the techie way:
1. Tune Into Virtual Events
Eventbrite writes that the most effective high-energy live streaming maximizes interaction, and this is something you can enjoy if you want a less hectic New Year's Eve party.
Choosing to participate in virtual events with your family and friends, such as a concert or a fun class could bring you and your circle unexpectedly great new memories.
Another good thing is that by choosing to go to virtual events, you could save so much time and energy with the preparation that normally goes to party planning.
Exploring virtual events provide the opportunity for entertaining themes, curated DJ sets, and a variety of in-event communication channels, including live chat and video sharing to interact with others.
2. Play Online Games
Parade says that playing virtual games with your guests can be a fun way to keep everyone entertained before and after the clock strikes midnight.
You can play all sorts of multiplayer games with your mobile device with friends and family, or visit Jackbox, which is a place where you can find a variety of different interactive games.
There are also a lot of websites that offer multiplayer games for parties, such as escape room games that would certainly be a lot of chaos for the party people.
3. Watch New Year's Eve On TV
According to Variety, if you do not like going outside and using firecrackers to hype up your New Year's Eve party, you can turn your tv on and party along with celebrities instead.
With celebrities performing and appearing on-screen on the evening of December 31, tv programs are slated to air festive programming in celebration of the holiday.
This year, you can tune in to Miley Cryrus's "Miley's New Year's Eve Party" on NBC, where the singer will be joined with a lineup of stars including the iconic Dolly Parton.
Other guests will include Sia, Latto, Rae Sremmurd, Fletcher, Liily, and "Saturday Night Live" stars Chole Finemann and Sarah Sherman.
Aside from this, you can also tune in to NBC's "A Toast to 2022!," CBS's "New Year's Eve Live: Nashville's Big Bash," and ABC's "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest."

4. Host A New Year's Eve Silent Disco Party
Turn up the volume and get down at an extremely groovy New Year's Eve silent disco party if you are searching for a new and exciting way to ring in the new year!
Fun 365 notes that during a party known as a "silent disco," participants use wireless headphones rather than traditional speakers to hear music.
When guests come, they are given a set of headphones so they may choose the music to dance to and can switch between stations all night long according to their preferences.
Enjoy all-night dancing by transforming your home to create a rousing dance party with glowsticks, neon, glittery accents, and disco balls, of course.
5. Share "2022 Wrapped" Presentations
If you have been lurking on TikTok, you probably have seen this trend where friends create powerpoint presentations to share with the group.
This can be a fun party idea on New Year's Eve, as it not only reveals how creative your friends are when it comes to digital presentations, but it also lets you know what rollercoaster of a ride 2022 was for everyone.
Presenting "2022 Wrapped" powerpoints are not only a really good ice-breaker, but it is also a great way to reminisce on the growth you and your family and friends had through this year's ups and downs.
