Activities Emoji

The Activities category captures the full spectrum of human leisure and celebration. Sports emoji cover everything from universal games like soccer and basketball to niche activities like cricket and lacrosse. Arts and crafts emoji include painting palettes, performing arts masks, and musical instruments.

Celebration emoji in this category are essential for digital expression. The party popper, confetti ball, and balloon emoji appear in countless birthday messages, New Year greetings, and congratulatory texts. Trophy and medal emoji have become synonymous with achievement and success in both personal and professional contexts.

Sports emoji have expanded significantly to include activities popular in different regions. The cricket bat and ball were added for South Asian users, while the curling stone serves Nordic and North American audiences. Each new Unicode release considers proposals from around the world to ensure activities emoji represent global interests.
