Free festive online events for all
Published: 13 Nov 2026
From Christmas Day get-togethers and festive games to quizzes, chats and a New Year's Eve party, the Oddfellows is hosting a programme of free online events throughout the festive season.
Free, friendly and open to all
All events are free to attend and held on Zoom. You don't need to be an Oddfellows member to join in, and newcomers are always welcome.
Each event is led by an Oddfellows member, who’s on hand to offer a warm welcome and ensure everything goes to plan.
Host of several of the events, Tracey Edwards from North Wales and Chester Oddfellows, said: "One of the things I love most about our online events is seeing people from all corners of the UK come together for a chat, a laugh and to enjoy each other's company. Whether you join us for one event or several, you'll be made very welcome.
"You can chat away, or just listen in for company. The important part is that we spend some enjoyable time together."
If you’re nervous about attending, unsure of what to expect, or need help with using Zoom, drop the event host a message.
