3. Build-Your-Own Wing Station Customise
A wing station is a great way to keep guests entertained and enables them to create unlimited flavour combinations. You should have different sauce options, such as traditional buffalo sauce, BBQ sauce, honey garlic sauce, or spicy sauces, to name a few. You should also have some sides such as celery sticks, fries, or onion rings.
You should cook wings in advance and serve them in warm slow cookers or chafing dishes. This is an interactive station that guests with different tabuds and different levels of heat tolerance in their wings.
4. Big-Game Betting & Prediction Board
“Prediction boards provide an element of excitement for both fans and non-fans alike. Set up categories for ‘first touchdown,’ ‘halftime score,’ or ‘final winner,’ and have guests enter predictions before kickoff. Place a chalkboard or poster for players to view. Award small prizes or ‘bragging rights’ for whoever wins.
Watching predictions during play will provide excitement and maintain high levels of participation. Non-football fans will even have an element of engagement with each play, making it seem as if everything matters at the party.”
5. Signature Super Bowl Cocktails and Mocktails

6. Viewing Zone: Watch Without Distractions
A properly planned viewing space is crucial for creating a comfortable viewing experience. Position your seating to allow all your guests to view the game. You can use sofas, chairs, ottomans, or bean bags to create seating space. You should vary the seating to ensure that no guest blocks the view for others.
You can add cushions and pillows for extra comfort. Use low lighting to prevent reflections on the screen. When your guests are comfortable and have enough space to move around, they will remain focused throughout the event.
7. Halftime Entertainment: Fun Beyond the Screen
The energy should be maintained during the halftime with engaging sessions that interest all the attendees. Trivia games, challenge sessions, or musical playlists with a focus on the theme will help keep the audience entertained even while the game is not on. These sessions should include competitions or small games that the children can participate in to keep them engaged.
The halftime is the best time to bring a refreshing twist to the snacks or even try a different dish to keep the audience entertained during the halftime.
8. Dessert Touchdown Table: Sweet Victory Bites
A dessert table is a great way to provide a fun closing to the party and also maintain the level of energy kept throughout the gathering. Serve bite-sized snacks such as cupcakes, brownies, or cookies with football-themed toppers or colored decorations. Organise each dessert to provide easy access for functionality and design.
Serve the desserts from tiered trays or cake stands to make the desserts visually attractive and also encourage the sampling of a variety of desserts. Desserts allow the guests to interact and provide a sweet closure to the event, no matter the winning or losing of the game.
