There’s nothing more fun than wooing over glamorous red carpet fashions from awards shows and predicting the year’s top winners. Get glammed up and invite friends over for an effortless awards show viewing party. These party ideas are sure to take home the gold!
1. Deck Your Party Out in Gold
Gold, white and black are classic color combinations for a Hollywood glam theme. For an extra touch of elegance, incorporate pink into your color scheme and add pink and blush rose centerpieces to liven up your tablescape.
Gold deco style borders and bold black-and-white stripes create a timeless look for a classy party. Our classic wedding inspiration doubles as a great color palette for a viewing party!
2. Pop Some Bubbly
The stars will be sipping on sophisticated drinks during the show, and your guests should be, too! Serve your guests champagne or fun cocktails in personalized stemless champagne glasses. For a more chic cocktail, add raspberries to your champagne or orange juice for mimosas!
If you’re feeling really creative, find ways to incorporate champagne bottles into your decor or favors. Decorate your champagne bar with balloons made to look like champagne bubbles for an unexpected backdrop or give out champagne-inspired favors.
Hostess Tip: Treat your party guests with cute champagne bottles filled with bubbles!

3. Make A Fancy Popcorn Bar
How can you watch movie award shows without popcorn! Popcorn is the perfect treat to offer your guests. Let guests mix up their own popcorn with sweet and savory toppings. Give guests who have a sweet tooth options like chocolate candies, almonds, pecans and candy bar bits. For guests who like more savory treats, add garlic salt, melted butter and cheddar cheese.

Hostess Tip: Use creative names from nominated movies and actors for your food, like ‘The Theory of Chocolate’ or ‘The Grand Budapest Pop.’
4. Cast Your Votes
Everyone will have their opinion about who will be winning an award. Before the show begins, give your guests a ballot sheet to cast their votes. Have a fun prize ready to give the winner with the highest score!

5. Hand Out DIY Swag Bags
