7 Creative Ways to Host a Party This Summer in Mississauga
/Mississauga is a wonderful place to be in the summer and hosting events at home is a great way to enjoy the season. It’s easy to get creative and try something a little different for entertaining and here are some creative summer party ideas.
Have A Casino Night
Since summer nights are so lovely, why not use the extra light and warm evenings and throw a casino night for your friends and family?
Tell all the invitees to dress in their summer best and create a menu full of finger food — the kind you'd see circulating on stunning silver trays at high-end Monaco casinos. Set up your computer/laptop as the slot machine station; you can have all the best slot games open on your computer for guests (over 19, of course) to try their luck. Hire a dealer for the evening and have them lay out games like blackjack or poker for some live card fun. You can source card tables from Four Aces Stags and Casino Table Rentals.
Have A Blooms and Berries Party
The Benares House is hosting a Blooms & Berries event and while it’s not an event hosted at your home, it’s still a creative way to get together with friends and family.
There are celebrations all month that will get you into the summer mood. Take inspiration from the summer festival and bring the party home after you attend. Bring home vibrant strawberries and fresh summer flowers and have friends and family come over to bake delicious treats from the fresh fruit. Make things like strawberry shortcake, chocolate-dipped strawberries, pavlova — whatever your sweet tooth desires.
Host a Canada Day Celebration
Celebrating Canada is another great way to bring people together.
Prep your house in the morning so you and your group can return to it after the daytime celebrations have been enjoyed to the fullest. Get some games, grub and a great playlist for both the adults and kids.
Organize a Foodie Tour Party
Mississauga is a melting pot for several cultures from all over the world, reflected in the exciting restaurants all over the city that offer an experience of these cultures through their cuisine.
Get together a group of foodies who are okay with trying exotic and exciting foods and plan your route from restaurant to restaurant. From the popular, long standing restaurants including The Apricot Tree and Indian Cuisine by the Lake, to some newer offerings, there’s something for everyone in Mississauga’s food scene.
Have a Pool Party
Enjoy the stunning summer weather by indulging in a pool party. If you’re lucky enough to have a pool at home, you can conveniently host the party. If not, you can choose from several public pools in the city.
Pack delicious summer snacks like fresh fruit, ice cream, crackers, and dips. Remember to bring lots of water and sunblock.
Organize a Movie Night Party
Building off our above point, after a long day at the pool, enjoy a movie night! Organizing a movie night can also be simple and fun, whether at home or as an excursion. You can enjoy them at home, or if you want to venture out to Celebration Square, there’s weekly movie nights that are free.
If you’re hosting, a projector for a real cinema experience goes a long way. Make popcorn, have seasoning options, and ensure all your favorite sweet movie snacks are available.
Get Arty
An art party is a beautiful way to include culture to your gatherings.
Adult guests could have a paint and sip. Provide delicious cocktails and snacks, a still life, and the materials for your guests to render their versions of the still life on canvas.
For little ones, leave out the cocktails and substitute juice.
