The Super Bowl is the most-watched sporting event of the year and has something for everyone. The popularity of this event guarantees viewers from all across the country tuning in. Want to have a viewing party and not sure about how difficult it might be? Planning a great Super Bowl event doesn’t have to be that hard. If on a budget or hosting a large-scale event, there are many ways to host a great Super Bowl party.
Send Football-Themed Invitations
Once you’ve decided who you want to invite, it’s time to get the word out and invite them. Send out invitations in the mail if you prefer the more traditional route. You can also create online invitations for your guests. One of the simplest methods is to create a Facebook group to post all of the details.
If you go for the mailed invites, creating football-themed invitations or e-cards with Super Bowl themes to inform your friends that they are invited is key. Just make sure you request RSVPs from your visitors. Knowing the exact number of guests can assist you in preparing correctly.
Prepare Special Super Bowl Menus.
Super Bowl parties attract a crowd of people who stay longer and eat more, so you have to make sure that you have the perfect food for the occasion. Develop bowl-themed menus that include specials for the most popular appetizers and drinks, all packaged in a way that your guests find appealing.
In addition to the classics like spicy wings and chips and dip, you should include appetizers with options for those guests who are gluten-free or vegetarian. Prepare the appetizers beforehand so that you can enjoy the game with your friends without focusing on cooking.
Offer Fun Halftime Activities.
During the game, the attention of your guests will mostly be on the game. However, during halftime and in between the famous commercials, they may lose interest. Keep their attention on your party by providing exciting activities like trivia contests or quarter-by-quarter gridded football pools. You can also engage them by having everyone rate the commercials. You can rank them, guess which company will come next, use different companies as spaces on a Bingo board, and so forth.
Create Super Bowl Giveaways
To keep excitement going all game long, get creative with games and contests and award the winners with either actual prizes or funny white elephant prizes. Create a quiz on the football teams playing, how many times announcers will use their favorite catch phrases, and more. The only cheers louder than for the touchdowns is when the fans take home fun prizes!
Drink Assortments
Football is not a great sport unless accompanied by great drinks. Stock up an assortment and impress your visitors with some festive and local flavors. Whether you are cheering for your favorite team, awaiting the halftime performance, or devouring Super Bowl snacks and appetizers, the best way to maintain the appropriate feel of the game is to keep the beer and drinks flowing.
Mixed Cocktails
If you plan on doing cocktails, make sure you are not playing bartender the entire time. Instead, choose a signature drink for each team inspired by their city, mascot, or team color. When one team scores a touchdown, pour a glass of the opposite team’s drink for each visitor. With these expert tips, you can create a memorable experience for you and your guests.
Use Super Bowl-Themed Items to Decorate
To create a Super Bowl party experience, you need to transform the atmosphere. The most effective way to create this atmosphere is by decorating it with Super Bowl themed items in a way that excites your guests and keeps them satisfied.
For the game day, think about getting Super Bowl tablecloths, posters, wall graphics, custom vinyl banners, or branded Step & Repeats to create an environment that football fans love. The environment can have an immense impact on guests, making everyone get into the spirit of the game.
Organize a Super Bowl after-party
After the game ends, you should plan to do something by providing a range of drinks, play music or hire a DJ, and hold more activities to keep your visitors entertained. You can organize a game after the Super Bowl to win memorabilia like an autographed football. Providing a good experience with entertainment and music is the key to a good Super Bowl after-party.
