Around the World NYE Party

Travel the time zones. It’s always midnight somewhere in the world, so set clocks around the house to ring in the New Year in other time zones. Bring the world to your house or neighborhood by having an Around the World Party.

Pick and choose your favorites. The best Around The World Parties have at least 4 countries. You could do one from each continent.

Location

Have different countries in different rooms of your home. This party is can also be turned into a progressive block party by teaming up with the people that live around you. Each of you hosts a country and the party will never stop.

Music Playlist

Play your favorite party songs or music from the countries your have at your party!

Invitations

Invites that looked like airplane tickets can be enclosed in a pamphlet style travel document holder. Printed on the computer, it is a snap to figure out how to make a tri-fold ticket holder. Or check out these editable printables for $14.95 on Simone Made It.

Around the World Party Decorations

Make big signs that say what country is where. Also, use flags and the colors of each country to decorate!

Have items (hats, clothing, decorations) from each country around to take photos with. For example, big beer steins for Germany, goofy tall England hats, sombreros for Mexico.
