So you wanna throw an Oscar Party? Well, you’ve come to the right place! Whether it’s decor, appetizers, desserts, games, or printables you are looking for, we’ve got you covered with our Ultimate Oscar Party Planning List.
Decor
Black, gold and white is always a classy combo for your Oscar Soiree. Try spray painting glass bottles with gold paint for a festive decor option. Use gold, black and white crepe paper to make a big fringe photo booth backdrop. Make a topiary using deliciously beautiful Ferrero Rocher chocolates. Of course, black, white and gold balloons, table cloths, and napkins will polish off the look. And don’t forget the champagne! What better decor than champagne in an ice bucket and clear flute full of golden bubbly.
Appetizer Ideas
A popcorn bar is a fabulous addition to the Academy Awards. Popcorn and movies are just a match made in heaven. You can do savory or sweet mixes, or just put toppings out with plain poporn to let your guests get creative. Try some of these options –

Games
What’s a party without games? Of course, the Oscars is not really a pin-the-tail on the donkey kind of occasion. Red carpet bingo is a fun option for those who love the fashionable pre-show. Or write your own acceptance speech with a mad-lib style fill-in-the-blank printable. And make sure to print out a blank ballot so each guest can make their guesses before all the trophies get handed out.
