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.
Whether 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!
