4 Ways To Select a Perfect Theme for Your Event

Updated: Aug 18, 2024


Party themes obviously aren’t a requirement when throwing an event. After all, you never need a reason to celebrate! Yet, themed parties and events are always a huge hit - so we definitely recommend incorporating a theme into your party planning!

Our clients usually come to us with one of three conundrums:

  • You aren’t sure where to start when choosing a theme.

  • You already have a theme in mind and you want to add entertainment to the mix.

  • You’re throwing a party to celebrate a holiday but want to somehow make it more unique (for example, Halloween with a Circus twist!)

So, if any of these sound like you, keep reading! We’re sharing our 4 best tips on all things party themes...



#1: Spotlight the Season!

Get inspiration for your next party theme by featuring the season. It may seem simple (and it is), but natural seasonal changes are always so beautiful and make stunning event themes.


At PEP, we offer breathtaking Winter Wonderland entertainment options for when the air gets chilly as well as gorgeous Living Greenery for the springtime. In short, whichever seasonal theme you choose, we’ve got entertainment options to match.

#2: Holidays with a Twist

While holiday themes make classic backdrops for an event, why not give your holiday festivities a twist?! Host a Galentine's Day Party for your girlfriends, or plan an Ugly Xmas Sweater theme for your end-of-year work party! For Christmas, go beyond the usual cheer. Make it dynamic by layering a theme on top of a theme. For example, plan a Western Holiday Party!

You might also theme your party around fun, little-known holidays that happen throughout the year. Some examples include:


  • Science Fiction Day - Jan. 2

  • National Umbrella Day - Feb. 10

  • National Unicorn Day - April 9

  • National Ice Cream Day - Third Sunday in July

  • World Emoji Day - July 17

  • National Ugly Sweater Day - Friday before Christmas


These themes are advantageous as they are well suited for events with attendees from a variety of backgrounds, such as fundraisers or corporate functions.





#3: Time Travel

Let’s be honest, time travel fascinates us! So, why not go backward or forward in time for your party theme?!
