The year is almost over, and if you haven’t started planning your New Year’s Eve celebrations yet, now is the time to do so. New Year’s Eve is one of the biggest events of the year, where we gather with friends and family to ring in a new year and a fresh start. Hosting a big party is a great way to bring everyone together and have some fun!

There are tons of ideas you can use for your New Year’s Eve celebration. As you pick and choose your favorites during your party planning, keep some of these things in mind:

  • Roaring Twenties theme: A New Year’s party is the perfect time to establish a theme and throw a big, festive bash. Since we’re ringing in the year 2020, you have the perfect opportunity to throw a “Roaring Twenties” party full of glitz and glam. Sparkles, gold, confetti, and champagne are must-haves, and you can encourage your guests to dress up in 1920s-era clothing to get into the spirit. Ask the owners of your party venue in Lowell, IN about what kinds of decorations they offer, so you can make this a truly extravagant affair. This theme is sure to differentiate this year’s party from all your previous ones!
  • Non-alcoholic drinks: Although New Year’s Eve is commonly associated with alcoholic drinks, including champagne, it’s important to remember to provide options for your guests who may be underage or who don’t drink. Create unique alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks that match your party’s theme and make sure they’re clearly labeled, so nobody accidentally picks up the wrong one.
  • Party favors: No New Year’s Eve party would be complete without favors for your guests to enjoy and take home with them at the end of the night. While the classic favors like hats, noisemakers and “2020” glasses are still great choices, try coming up with more unique options to match your theme. For example, a Twenties-themed photo booth or station that prints out miniature photographs makes for a fun party activity and provides souvenir keepsakes! Make sure you finalize your guest list before purchasing party favors to ensure that everyone gets one.
  • AV equipment: One of the major events of a New Year’s celebration is counting down and watching the ball drop in Times Square at midnight. Before the countdown, though, you’ll want to liven up the dance floor with upbeat music, including some of 2019’s biggest hits. Make sure your party venue in Lowell, IN offers audio/visual equipment so you can play your favorite music and broadcast the New Year’s countdown on a big screen.

New Year’s Eve is a major holiday event, so planning your celebration on your own can get overwhelming. When you choose a party venue in Lowell, IN like Signature Banquets, you’ll be able to leverage the experience of our professional event coordinators, caterers, and decoration personnel.
