On May 6th, 2023, the Catholic Club in Bengaluru was transported to an era of nostalgia and groovy vibes as 64 attendees gathered for the highly anticipated M.E.T Retro Theme Mixer. This captivating event promised an evening of connection, laughter, and celebration, as participants embraced the retro theme with enthusiasm. Let’s dive into the thrilling highlights of the evening, featuring the interactive ice breaker activity, the exciting “Name That Tune” game, the groovy retro dance workshop, and the prestigious M.E.T awards.
To kick off the event, an engaging ice breaker activity set the stage for connections to flourish. Each participant grabbed a small handful of colorful gems, with each color representing a list of four thought-provoking questions. Guests had the freedom to choose a question based on the color of their gems and share their answers with the group. Laughter filled the room as stories were woven, memories shared, and bonds formed, creating an atmosphere of camaraderie and excitement.
The energy continued to rise with the exhilarating “Name That Tune” game. Teams faced off against each other, eagerly awaiting the familiar beats of retro tracks. As each track played, the race was on for the first group to throw the ball to the Volunteer, who had to catch it and correctly identify the name of the tune. A correct answer earned two points, while an incorrect answer resulted in a deduction of one point. The Volunteer could also request the ball to be thrown to them if they knew the answer. The competition was fierce, and the room buzzed with anticipation as participants showcased their music knowledge, all vying for the coveted title. The game continued until one team emerged victorious, creating an electric atmosphere and unforgettable memories for all.
The retro theme dance workshop took center stage, transporting participants back in time to an era of iconic moves and infectious rhythms. Led by experienced instructors, men and women engaged in a friendly dance-off, putting their retro dance skills to the test. The dance floor came alive as participants grooved to the beats, embracing the spirit of the past and immersing themselves in the joy of dance. The workshop served as a platform for self-expression, connection, and pure enjoyment, leaving everyone with a renewed appreciation for the timeless art of dance.
The pinnacle of the evening arrived with the prestigious M.E.T awards ceremony, where individuals who exuded retro style and charm were recognized. The best male dresser, best female dresser, and star socializer were celebrated for their exceptional flair and ability to transport others back in time. These awards served as a testament to the creativity and individuality of the winners, inspiring all attendees to embrace their unique retro personas.
