40's Party
Home -> Adult Party Ideas -> 1940s Party
My ideas for a 40's party come from the fact that I grew up watching old movies.
I particularly loved the ones that came out of Hollywood during the war years.
The Andrews Sisters, Abbott & Costello, lots of fun comedy, great songs and movies that just made you feel good.
Of course now, as an adult, I know that those movies, like the ones created in the 1930's, were made to be uplifting so everyone could forget their problems.
But let's take a page back from those great movies for ideas for a party!
If you wanted to go with a World War II theme, you could decorate with Americana (pull out those Fourth of July decorations) such as US Flags and bunting, and even some Uncle Sam posters! Adding some movie posters for the great films of the 1940's would be fun too.
Don't forget the great big band music that came from the 1940's. You can purchase compilations online, or even hire a life band to perform, just like in the movies. A 1940s party should always include dancing.
This would make a great birthday party theme for anyone who loves this era. You could throw in some adult birthday party game ideas too.
Other fun adult party game ideas could be a trivia contest, testing everyone's memory of the 1940s.
