Superhero Party Ideas


A superhero theme party is an opportunity to dress up in crazy outfits, making sure to wear your underwear on the outside of your pants.

superhero party ideasWhether you’re throwing your superhero theme party for kids or adults, you may wish to pick and choose from the following superhero party ideas:

Superhero Party Invitations

Cut out superhero logos from coloured paper. Cut out words from a newspaper and use them to set a challenge to your guests. The Justice League mission, should you choose to accept is to meet at…(location name etc).

Another idea would be to find a picture of your favorite superhero online and print several of them off. Write your invitations on the back and mail them off to your guests. Make sure to state that they’ll be in trouble if they don’t dress up! You could even make it so there are speech bubbles emanating from the mouth of the superhero.

You should also create a Facebook event page in order to invite, remind your guests and create excitement prior to the party! Creating a Facebook group always increases attendance to parties as people are able to see just how many of their friends have already accepted. In addition to this, a Facebook group enables you to upload all of your photos and videos from the party and then “tag” everybody in it. This will create a wonderful and permanent reminder of your event.

Superhero Party Costumes

Are you struggling to decide who you’re going to dress up as? This simple test will help narrow down your possibilities. Which can you see yourself doing; wringing your hands together whilst laughing evilly with a slight bending of the knees…or hands on hips, shoulders back, chest out and staring into the unknown? When you’ve answered that, you’ll know if you’re going as a good guy or a bad guy!

Marvel comics actually has a catalogue of over 5000 characters to pick from. You can of course go for the obvious ones such as Superman, Spiderman or get a Wonder Woman costume, but you should also consider the more obscure characters, some of whom have incredible outfits! Having people guess who you’ve come as could be quite fun, something you’ll miss out on if you go as Spiderman.

There is nothing quite like having a conversation with a man in a cape however! And I have found for you the best place on the planet to buy high quality low cost Superhero Costumes For Men and Superhero Costumes For Women!

Another big tip I can give you is that you should Dress Up Your Dog! If there’s anything funnier on the planet then i’d love to see it!

Superhero Party Decorations

Take a look at the following list and pick and choose depending on what your budget is. Here is a great place to get any of the following Superhero Party Decorations at low prices.

1. Tablecloths, paper plates, cups and balloons etc with superhero themes can be found in any supermarket.

2. Get some superhero cut outs. You could get them from Amazon but how about going to your local DVD rental store and checking if they’re about to throw any out!

3. Consider getting a Fog Machine for the entrance to create suspense! You could play a great game where all your guests get to show up through the fog to some dramatic music and introduce themselves in their chosen superhero poses! If you do this, make sure you catch it all on film!

4. Play a Spiderman DVD on a loop.

5. Make sure you decorate the cake and smaller cup cakes with superhero related icing or figurines.

Superhero Party Music

Having the right music will make all the difference for your party. If you play the fog game I mentioned above then doing it to the Superman theme tune will make it work really well. Did you know you can get this Superhero Party Music for a relatively low price on Amazon!

Superhero Party Food

All supermarkets have superhero cakes, biscuits, yoghurt’s etc. Get some superhero action figures to put on top of the cake.

Give your sandwiches superhero names such as Batman baguettes or Superman subs!

Superhero Party Drinks

For drinks I suggest sports energy drinks such as Powerade, Lucozade or Gatorade. However, by feeding the kids at the party espresso, they’re sure to be whizzing around the place like superheros.

If you’re not feeling too much like throwing a superhero party, then why not throw a Super Mario Brothers party? Surely that’s the next best thing!

Pool Party Invitations

Remember to make a big deal out of your invitations, by sending them out on something pool related everyone will know you’re serious about throwing a pool theme party! Pick one of the following and print out pictures of them from the internet, writing your invites on them:

1. Goggles

2. Star Fish

3. Sea Shell

4. Dingy

5. Fish

Or take an empty bottle of water, take the label off, fill with sand and place your invitation in the bottle. This will create a message in a bottle effect!

State on your invitations that bathing suits and swimming trunks are mandatory!

In addition you should also create a Facebook pool party group in order to invite your guests. You’ll be able to hype up your party as it approaches and keep everybody informed as to any changes! You’ll also have a higher attendance if you create a Facebook group as everybody will be able to see all who’s invited. If they have many friends who’re coming then they’re more likely to attend themselves. One final reason for creating a Facebook group for your party is that you’ll be able to upload all the pictures and video from the party to the group. You can then “tag” everybody in the photos and this way you’ll all have lasting memories of the party.

Pool Party Supplies And Games

It’s your decorations that will make the big difference for your party, the more stuff you get the better it’ll be! Take a look from the following and pick and choose according to your budget. You can get most of these Pool Party Supplies for cheap on Amazon!

1. Use fish netting to put over the table cloths, which should be blue.

2. Scatter sea shells and star fish around your venue.

3. Get some sand for the pool side and a bucket and spade for the kids.

4. Get plenty of beach balls. Set up a Volleyball net and a Basketball hoop.

5. Get yourself an Inflatable Palm Tree or two for effect.

6. Set up some large sun umbrellas and sun loungers around the outside of the pool.

7. Get an army of Rubber Ducks and have a war!

8. Consider a rubber dingy or water raft, depending on the size of your pool.

9. Alternatively how about some Giant Inflatable Whales?

10. Water bombs!

11. Have water wings and floats for the kids.

12. If your pool party is outside, make sure you have plenty of sunscreen on standby. People always forget to bring their own!

13. Water guns, water guns…WATER GUNS!!!

Pool Party Food And Drink

If your pool party is outside you could have a BBQ serving the usuals.
For sandwiches you could cut the bread using a fish shaped cookie cutter.
Swordfish and Salmon will be popular.
Hire a professional bartender for the drinks, though drink responsibly.

Other Pool Party Ideas

Have an alternative plan just in case the weather is bad.
Remember the danger element at a pool party, especially if alcohol is involved. If you want to be safe, you can hire out a life guard from the local leisure centre or swimming pool on a private basis.

Arabian Party Theme


An Arabian Nights party theme is supposed to create a sense of intrigue and mystery surrounding princes, princesses, kings, queens and thieves.

arabian party ideasYour aim is to try and create the Moroccan desert at night. So consider holding your Arabian party theme at the beach.

I highly suggest you rent a Moroccan Bedouin tent for the occasion as this is the essence of the Arabian party theme and will help create an incredible scene. They come in all sizes and should fit your budget.

Arabian Party Costumes

Consider some of the following costumes for your Arabian party which are gender dependant.

1. Aladdin

2. Princess Jasmine

3. A Merchant

4. A Villain

5. Belly Dancer

6. Snake Charmer

7. A Genie

This is the best place for low cost Arabian Party Costumes!

Arabian Party Decorations

Getting the scenery right for your Arabian nights party can really make the difference. Below is quite a large list for you to consider:

1. Most importantly (although not essential) is hiring a Bedouin tent!
2. Obtain some Moroccan style patio lanterns. The lighting in the tent/room should be dim.
3. Cover the floor with Moroccan style rugs.
4. Get plenty of cushions and pillows, position them all over the floor.
5. Tables and sofas should preferably be as low down as possible.
6. Hang crescent moons and stars from the ceiling on strings.
7. Consider hiring a belly dancer, snake charmer, henna artist, fire eater or fortune teller.
8. Hire a camel and park it on a rope outside. Failing this, get a goat.
9. Play Aladdin on a loop.
10. The main colour theme should be red and gold.
11. Light plenty of candles around the venue.

Arabian Party Food

You should ideally be eating while sitting on the floor, the trays of food should be kept at foot level.

It is traditional for guests to bathe their fingers in scented water before eating. I suggest you add a few drops of essential oil to a bowl of water for this.

For Moroccan cuisine, I recommend Favourite Recipes from the Middle East for many delicious and easy to make recipes.

Arabian Party Music

For some ideal Arabian Nights theme party background music, I recommend Arabian Nights Club & Chillout Classics, you can play either the chill out or the dance CD depending on the present mood of your party.

Arabian Party Invitations

Send out your party invitations on cut outs of one of the following:

1. Aladdin

2. Princess Jasmine

3. A Camel

4. A Flying Carpet

5. Crescent Moon

As with any party or event you put on these days, you really should create a Facebook event page as well as sending out physical invitations! These are great and you can use them to invite all your guests as well as keep them informed as to any updates! A Facebook group should also help you increase the attendance to your party as everyone will be able to see how many of their friends have already agreed to come. Finally, a Facebook group will enable you all to upload your photo and videos once the party has finished. You’ll be able to tag each other in them and you’ll have a permanent reminder to your wonderful Arabian party.
