The word ‘party’ is enough to give us thrills! And if we add ‘Kik’ before it, there is a whole new meaning to it. Of course, the millions of Kik users around the world use the app for fun and partying is a great way to meet new people and have great moments. The following article is focused on Kik parties, a new phenomenon in the world of Kik users which is taking them by storm. We shall explain how to organize a Kik party and how to add them to your event. Before we proceed, let us first understand what a Kik party is. A Kik messenger party is a Kik group chat which intends to add those users who are willing to have a digital (or virtual, as you prefer) party. The users take part in the event, without having to meet in person at a venue, and play games, have an interesting conversation etc.
Organizing A Kik Party
So if you are planning to throw a Kik party, you have to first think of the purpose of the party. Or you can say the theme of the party. Use your imagination and think a little about some popular themes of the party in real life. It may be a movie based party or role-play, whatever sails your boat. Now, it is not a hard and fast rule to have a theme because you can always have a casual party without any hullabaloo. The next thing is to think of people you are going to invite to the party. You can go two ways at this step – ‘the more the merrier’ or ‘a private affair’. So, it depends on you if you want to add a maximum number of your friends to the party or keep it restricted to a few. In case you would like to keep your Kik party limited to your existing friends, you can manually add them up. There are two ways to add them up, and we have described them both here:
1. Starting A New Party And Adding People In The Beginning
- Take your mobile device and launch the Kik app.
- Go to the main chats list.
- Tap on the ‘talk to’ icon, located in the top right-hand side of the screen (for Apple devices).
- Tap on the ‘talk to’ icon, located in the bottom right-hand side of the screen (for Android devices).
- Tap on the ‘start a group’ option.
- Now, tap on the names of the Kik friends you will like to add to the party.
The above step will add them to the party and not invite them. It means once you have tapped on the names of all the friends you have wanted in your party, they will be added regardless of their choice to attend the party. This is up to you to tell them in advance that you are throwing a Kik party so they can tell if they want to be added or not. If you add a friend up without informing him, he might leave the party which will not put a good impression in front of other friends in the party. So it is better to actually send a message to the friend that you are going to add him to the Kik party group. Once you have added all the friends, you can set a specific name for your party like ‘Christmas Bash’, ‘Reunion’, ‘Farewell’, and ‘New Year Bash’ etc. You can also set a picture according to the theme of the party or its mood. This is an optional step though we recommend you to go for it because it adds value to the party. You can change name and picture during the chat as well, so pick a good choice else just change it later. So cool! Once you have chosen all the friends, just tap on the ‘start’ icon on the top right-hand corner of the screen.
2. Adding People To The Kik Party After It Has Started
In this way, you can add people even after you have already a Kik party going on. Just follow these steps:
- From the group chat, tap on the ‘info’ icon located in the top right-hand corner of the screen.
- Tap on the ‘add’ icon to select, one by one, the friends you would like to add in the party group.
- Finally, tap on the ‘done’ icon to finish adding them up. This process can be repeated any number of times.
3. Meeting New People And Sharing Party Across The Web
If you want to expand the horizon of your party to new people and strangers, you can use Kik codes to do so. For this, you have to share the Kik code of your Kik party group across various social media apps and websites. To know the process of sharing Kik code across these platforms, just follow these steps:
- From the group chat, tap on the ‘info’ icon located in the top right-hand corner of the screen.
- Tap on the ‘show Kik code’ icon to show the unique Kik code of the chat.
- Finally, tap on the ‘share’ icon to share the Kik code.
If you are an active user of Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, Facebook, Tumble, Pinterest, and other social media websites. You can share the Kik code with appropriate hashtags such as #kikparty #kikroleplayparty #kikhalloweenparty #kiknewyearparty #kikyounggunsparty and so on. Relevant hashtags will increase the possibilities of meeting new people genuinely interested in the theme and occasion of your party. You can also search for Kik codes on these platforms if you want to join an already on party. You can make your search smarter by looking out for relevant hashtags, as already explained. All you need to do, when you find the relevant party, is just scan the Kik code with the help of your device. As soon as you do it, you will be added up the party.
