How To Host A Christmas In July Party
How to Throw a Christmas in July Party
Celebrating Christmas in July is a great way to host a mid year party and bring some festive cheer to yourself and your guests. Here’s a quick guide to help you host a fun and festive Christmas in July party.
1. Choose Your Christmas Theme
Christmas in July is the perfect excuse to have a winter wonderland theme during the cooler months in Australia. Complete with fake snow and fairy lights, you can turn your space into a cosy winter wonderland. Having a theme brings your event to life and you can even incorporate your chosen theme into invitations, decorations, and even dress codes for guests.
2. Decor & Atmosphere
The perfect decor will help transform your space into a festive Christmas setting. String up festive lights, hang ornaments, baubles and even some holly. You can grab some Christmas party supplies like table covers and tableware to really set the scene too.
3. Food & Drink
Plan a menu that blends holiday favourites with warm winter options. Pair traditional offerings like roast turkey or glazed ham with grilled vegetables, and cosy winter foods. For drinks, serve up Christmas classics like mulled wine or eggnog.
4. Festive Activities
Include engaging activities to keep guests entertained. Organise a gift exchange or a Secret Santa. Play Christmas-themed trivia or host a “best festive outfit” contest to encourage creativity.
5. Music and Entertainment
You can't forget to your very own Christmas playlist! Gather your favourite Christmas tunes and watch your guests sing along. You can choose from the more classic Christmas carols to some more modern remakes. You can even get some karaoke going!
6. Party Favours
To make the day extra memorable, why not creating some party favour bags and send your guests home with themed party favours to commemorate the day.
With creativity and planning, hosting a Christmas in July party can be an unforgettable experience for everyone. It’s an opportunity to indulge in holiday traditions earlier in the year. Start planning now and get ready to watch your guests revel in the festive fun!
