How to play
Plan for a night and cover equipment (frisbees, beach balls, etc.) in glow sticks. Give each person at least five glow sticks to wear as necklaces and armbands. Then play your favourite games. Ultimate frisbee, soccer, Streets and Lanes, and Human Foosball all work especially well. Make sure all games are adapted for safety given limited visibility.
