These 5 Christmas Theme Ideas in Bacolod Will Bring Life to Your Party

A Christmas karaoke party is simple but fun. You can rock out to the holiday’s best jams, or choose timeless hits everyone would love to sing along to. After a glass of liquid cheer, your buddies won’t be able to tell the difference between you and Ariana Grande anyway. Whether you sound like the next Asia’s songbird or like a laughing seal, a Christmas karaoke guarantees an entertaining time. Hook up a karaoke machine and prepare more than one songbook so that your guests don’t have to wait for the lone book to be free. Don’t forget to serve snacks for your karaoke army to munch on, and, most of all, serve plenty of drinks!

A costume party is a wonderful way to get with the holiday vibe. You can set witty holiday-related themes or even non-Christmas themes; it’s up to you! Since guests need time to prepare for this kind of party, send out invitations a month in advance. This ensures that everybody can put together a nice outfit. To make everyone bring their A-game, prepare some prizes for the best and wittiest costumes. Also, set up an area with a nice background where your guests can take pictures of themselves in their full outfit!

From identifying Christmas flicks to naming all of Santa’s reindeer, your guests will definitely have a challenging and fun time at a trivia night party. You can challenge everyone to recall details about Christmas songs, movies, and traditions. This theme is easy to pull off, and it will provide good entertainment especially if your guests are competitive. To help with that, make sure to have prizes for the top winners. Don’t have time to make trivia questions? There are plenty of phone trivia apps that can help. All you have to do is find the best one for your party before your guests arrive!

Nothing beats Christmas celebrations where you and your guests get to sample different types of drinks, from Santa’s whiskey sour to candy cane martinis. For your cocktail party, add a twist by encouraging your guests to invent their own drinks and host a taste-testing competition to see whose festive beverage matches the holiday spirit! If the party goes all out on the tequila, expect to have rowdy rounds of carols towards the end of the night. You could also prepare Christmas-themed drinking games for some entertainment and a nice playlist for background music. Most importantly, remember to drink responsibly and to make sure that there is a sober designated driver who will bring everyone home safe.

A talent show party would be best for office celebrations, since it would let employees showcase skills they don’t normally show at the office. Christmas talent shows become more fun and exciting if people can share some laughs, so for your party, go beyond the typical singing contest and let the contestants go for hilarious acts like showing off candy cane-twirling abilities or pulling off the iconic Jingle Bell Rock skit from Mean Girls. On your invitation or event poster, announce the talent show and the prizes to motivate people to join. Don’t forget to set up a criteria for judging the best performer!
