Costume Party Ideas

Costume Party Ideas aren't just for Halloween (although that's what is so fun about Halloween). Costume parties are a great theme year round.

Creating a themed costume party gives everyone a single idea to focus on. You can recreate an era like the 40s, 60s, or 80s. Or, you can center your theme around a single idea such as the "I Wouldn't Be Caught Dead In That!" costume party or the "Anything but Clothes Costume Party".

It's funny to see how guests interpret the theme. Don't forget to give an award for the best costume. Everyone always loves to anticipate who will win! You'll find many more costume ideas here from simple to elaborate.

And, if you want the cure for guests who come to your party without a costume, play the "Mystery Costume Ambush" Game.
