With an idea like this, you can go all out. There are countless ways to decorate, a wide variety of foods you can serve, and many engaging activities you can plan for a travel-themed party!

Narrow Your Theme

You may want your party to celebrate travel in general, and that’s a fine idea. However, you may instead want to narrow your theme to travel within a certain country, region, or part of the world. Or, you may want to focus on one method of travel, such as backpacking or cruising.

No matter what your sub-theme, your travel-themed party will be memorable if it matches your interests and the interests of the people you invite. If some people you invite are not as into travel as others, the people that are passionate about traveling will pass on their enthusiasm to the other guests.

Build Excitement with Themed Invitations

You can begin to build anticipation for your party with themed invitations. Encourage guests to bring travel photos or souvenirs from their travels to share, or ask them to bring a dish of local cuisine from their favorite destination.

There are several options for effective invitations, and some are easier than others. You can hand make invitations yourself, buy some at a store, or use free party invitations online to send to your guests via email.

You can use balloons filled with helium to create hot air balloons, or make a cardboard train centerpiece out of old shoe boxes.

Play Travel-Themed Games

You can adapt many well-known party games to a travel theme.
