Oscar Party Tips: How to Throw a Great Event

The Academy Awards are this Sunday, at 5:30pm PST on ABC, and if you are planning on hosting a party, here are a few last minute tips for making your event a memorable one.

 

Games: trivia games are always a welcomed addition to any Oscars party. This year print out baby pictures of the best actor and actress nominees and have your guest match them. Give the winner a small prize.

 

Popcorn bar: no snack may be more associated with the movies than popcorn. For your party make a popcorn bar with a set of various topping like butter, cheese, jalapenos, and honey. Get creative with the toppings—your guest will love it.

 

Create your own ballot: the average Oscar voter is a 60-year-old white male which might not match the sensibilities of the general public. Make your own ballot, compile the results, and the winners when each category is announced.
