If you’re anything like us, we love all things fall – and yes, that includes football! Whether we’re rooting for our home team, or curled up on the couch on a lazy Sunday, football can set the tone for a good fall day. Watching football games brings together not only fellow fans of your favorite team, but rivals as well, and allows for a relaxed get-together with family and friends. One thing is for certain though – bringing together a group of people should be enjoyable for everyone – yourself included! That’s why we put together this post on hosting the BEST Tailgate Party for your team’s next big game, your fantasy draft night, the Super Bowl, or even a football-themed birthday party!
Ready…
Getting ready for your tailgate should be quick and easy – you’re going to need a TV, so plan around that. Do you want to move the TV outside on a particularly nice day? Do you want multiple TVs set up so multiple games can be watched at the same time? Once you’ve established where you’re going to watch the game, the rest falls into place!
The amount of time spent on preparing snacks and food is ultimately up to you – let’s just say there is no wrong answer when it comes to tailgating snacks! Some easy suggestions are –
- Veggie tray
- Fruit tray
- Chips and dips
- Sliders
- Cocktail meatballs
- Meat and cheese board
- Chili
You can get as creative as you want within these options above! Your crockpot can be used for a lot of different menu items as well, allowing you to have large quantities of something without spending a lot of time in the kitchen.
Set…
If you decide you want to spruce up your party space with some decorations, we have you covered. We’ve found affordable options for some tasteful decorations that will provide “game day” aesthetic at a fraction of the cost!
We love the combination of this Faux Burlap Tablecloth and Faux Grass Table Runner! Not only does the tablecloth come at a good price, but can be used for other occasions as well. And these Football Flag Picks are perfect to place in your fruit tray, cocktail meatballs, or meat and cheese board. We matched the Black and White Striped Plates with the striped design on the flags and paired them with a plain green paper napkin.
We love the pop of color these orange Pom Poms bring to your tablescape! This Amazon find comes in 10 different colors, so you can opt for your favorite team’s colors as well. We love the look (and price) of these Mini Foam Fingers to scatter across your table also, as they are not only cute but interactive!
Go!
Now whether you’re rooting for your home team, your fantasy team, or you just want everyone to have fun – you can at least guarantee that you can host and enjoy the BEST Tailgate Party this fall!
Cheers!
Clink. Cheers. Celebrate.
