How to Host a Touchdown Worthy Tailgate

Football season brings cooler weather, tailgating, getting all decked out in your team's colors, and some (hopefully) friendly competition! But no one wants a basic tailgate—you want to host an Instagram-worthy football party everyone's talking about! So we put together some easy pointers for you on How to Host a Touchdown Worthy Tailgate that will have all your friends over to watch the game. 

FOOTBALL BACKDROP

Whether you're hosting a Super Bowl watch party at home or tailgating outside the football stadium, it's always good to have some decoration. This fun football pendant banner is an easy way to spice things up a bit. You can hang this over the food table at home, arrange it across the front of a table, or string it across the float during homecoming. The options are endless!

TAILGATE TABLE DECOR

Decorating your table for a festive football party is made simple with this football grass table runner! This table runner feels like turf and features line-markings like a football field, making it a perfect addition to your football-themed birthday party.

PRE-GAME PARTY GOODS

You can stack these football helmet-shaped plates on top of black striped lunch plates to make them stand out more (and leave room for more food). Guests can quench their thirst at the half using these eat, drink, football cups and assorted football paper straws. But if you want to show off your school spirit, we suggest picking out straws, napkins, cutlery, and dinner plates in your favorite team's colors.

TREAT ACCESSORIES

You can't watch football without snacking, so fill these but first, football treat bags with popcorn, nuts, or candy to hand out to guests while they watch the big game. They also make great party favor bags for your son's football team! 

Decorate your cupcake, cake, or any other sweet treat with these adorable football cupcake picks. You can also lay them out on the table so guests can use them to pick up cheese, grapes, or other light bites. However, you can always use matte black reusable cutlery so guests can eat all the tasty snacks available without getting their hands dirty! 

Your game day celebration is sure to be a touchdown with our football-themed decorations. Be sure to tag us in your tailgating party picks with your team's colors! Save this Christmas Cookie Decorating Party post to Pinterest so you can view it later.
