Premiere Outdoor Movies • Oct 09, 2019

If you can't watch the game at the stadium there is no better option than hanging out with friends and watching the game together! Food, beverages, laughter, and sports make for the perfect football day.

Great Tips For Your Next Football Viewing Party

  • Plan ahead for seating . Regardless if you are planning to watch the game indoors or outdoors, it is important to arrange a seat for each guest. If you don’t have enough either plan to ask your guests to bring their own folding or camping chair. Always arrange furniture to eliminate bad sightlines.
  • Food options. As with any gathering, and especially watching a game, food is necessary. As the host, you can plan ahead to supply all of the food or simply provide the main dish and ask your guests to bring the accompaniments. If nothing else, consider simple snacks, that are quick and easy to refill.
  • Beverages. Consider stocking your beverage cart with plenty of options for guests. A good quantity of water and soft drink options are a must. Beer is a game day favorite and you can have popular brands you know your guests enjoy as well as some fall seasonal options. You can even consider specialty cocktails served up with game day decorated cups!
  • Create a separate space for socializing. Since there are some guests that might not be as enthusiastic about sports as others but love to be social, it can be a good idea to create a separate space where they can hang out and still enjoy the party.
  • Decorate your home. If you are the host and have a specific team you are cheering for, you can find flags, banners, balloons, and other decorations with unique colors and logos easily online. Also, to tie your party together, you can also get sports themed cups, plates, napkins and much more.
  • Game Day Contests . Consider party contests for before or after the game. Examples include guessing the halftime or final score, vote on the funniest or most expensive commercial, prizes for best fan spirit, pin the tail on the quarterback. Have simple prizes on hand, it is more about the memories you are making then the expense of prizes.
  • Don't forget the kids. With all the excitement of game day don't forget about the little one's needs too. Keep the party child-friendly by setting out juice boxes, easy finger foods, special treats, and games or a craft table.
  • The screen and top quality system . Premiere Outdoor Movies can give you a way to ensure that everyone in the house gets a front-row view, even if they aren’t in a front-row seat. The indoor movie package is perfect for small gatherings of friends or larger family and friend parties.
