3 tips for throwing a world-class world cup party

The 2022 World Cup is in FULL swing and we are certainly here for all of the excitement - GO USA! Whether you’re a soccer fan, or not, it’s hard not to want to throw a watch party and support our team! We’ve put together a few ideas on how you can make it super special.


#1 - Get into the international spirit with food

Be on brand! Who is playing the games that will be on during your watch party?! Do some research on what those countries use to celebrate! Naturally, USA will be the easiest for all of us, but this is your moment to get crazy with new, fun foods that will elevate the experience! Watching a Germany game? Make some bratwurst + kraut. What about Spain? Get crazy with some tapas. (We could keep going, but we’ll let you do your own research).

If you’d prefer to keep it a little more simple, check out these adorable soccer-friendly party snacks like these soccer player cake pops, soccer ball cupcake spread, or these fabulous little nutter butter referees.

 

#2 - Up the stakes on the game with competition

Make things interesting by taking bets on the single game you all are watching or even gather everyone together for a bracket competition that can open things up for future watch parties and cheeky group texts. Feel free to bet as little as bragging rights or really up the stakes with a money pot at the end! Or decide on something fun in between.
