How to throw the perfect house party

With Miller Genuine Draft

House parties are one of the easiest ways to get together with your friends and family. As old as houses themselves, these gatherings are commonplace all over the world, for good reason. Who doesn’t love a good house party? To make sure your party stands out, it's important to set the right mood. So, if you are planning a house party this weekend, check out our ultimate house party guide...

YOUR FRIENDS

They say that people make a party, so start by rounding up your best friends. Set up a Facebook event, or give them a call to create some buzz around your party. Get people excited early, and be sure to remind them nearer the time.

THE THEME

All the best parties have a theme. Think about your reason for throwing a party. Is it a seasonal event? Are you celebrating an occasion? Pick a theme – relevant or at random – then decorate your house accordingly. If your guests need to dress in a certain way, or bring anything to help - be sure to let them know as soon as possible.

THE SOUNDTRACK

So you've got your friends round and decked out your house according to your theme. Now you need a soundtrack. You could invite your DJ friends round to play, or beam some of the world's biggest DJs to your TV instead. Check out our series of live DJ sets, or our house party playlist below. 

THE SOUND SYSTEM

You can have the best music in the world, but without a sound system, it's not going to sound great. Fortunately, portable speaker technology has come on in leaps and bounds in recent years. Brands like Minirigs have created portable rigs that sound big enough for any party. Check them out here.

THE BEER

You've created a memorable house party, and all your friends are having fun. Now it's time to pop open a Miller Genuine Draft and enjoy the party. It's Miller Time!
