What Giant Mikado is
Giant Mikado is the oversized version of the classic skill game, made up of more than 30 sticks of 2.40 metres each, all with different point values.
A game that tests players' steadiness and concentration, and produces tension and laughter in equal measure.
How Giant Mikado works
Here's how Giant Mikado for Events works, step by step:
- The sticks are dropped on the floor in a jumbled pile.
- Each player takes a turn trying to lift one stick without moving the others.
- If they manage it, they score that stick's points.
- If any other stick moves, they lose their turn and play passes on.

Giant Mikado specifications
- Space needed: 5 metres across.

At garden and country house weddings, the giant sticks on the lawn entertain guests of all ages between drinks and dancing. Hotels with entertainment programmes and outdoor festivals can also use it as a calm activity that needs no electricity.
