10 Things You Need To Have The Perfect New Year Party In The Comfort Of Your Home

Partying at a commercial event on New Year’s Eve is so overrated. Braving ungodly amount of traffic to enter overcrowded venues blaring unrecognisable music with hordes of strangers unable to hold their drink. Not a pretty sight, is it? I’d rather spend New Years’ Eve with a few friends, partying it up to the music of our choice in the comfort of my home.

Of course, another reason to opt for a commercial party maybe because you simply don’t have all the cool stuff needed to host an epic party at home. Fear not, I’ve got your back.

Here are 10 things you need to throw an absolutely epic New Year’s Eve party in the comfort of your home:

1. A powerful sound system for really getting a feel out of your favourite tracks.

A party without music is like pizza without cheese, pretty much useless. How can it be called a ‘bash’ without you and your friends grooving to your favourite numbers which metamorphoses into epic guilty pleasure songs from 90s after 2 drinks?

Fantasising about dancing to Govinda’s best? If you are gonna dance, do it right! Buy now on Paytm.

 

2. Party masks, balloons and confetti for the child in you.

Yes, you are an adult now but you’ll be lying if you say that you are over your balloon and confetti obsession. So, if you are planning to throw a kickass theme party, don’t forget to get the necessary paraphernalia!

However cheesy they may seem, party accessories do tend to add a mad flair to the night.

 

3. Party lights to add some funky strobe to the scene!

I don’t know if it’s real or psychological, but party lights increase the energy of the room by 9000 points! Some people may think it’s too 90s to get the party flashin’, but I don’t get in the mood until I feel like I’m in a swanky party with mysterious people around me, bathed in coloured light.

Lights don’t have to be exclusive to big commercial parties. Buy now on Paytm.

 

4. Some swanky glassware and disposable cutlery for both fancy and clumsy guests! 

Some of your friends will be looking for some fine wine tasting and intellectual debates about which cheese is better. You think they’ll appreciate if you hand them a glass of Sauvignon blanc in your minion mug? Hell, no!

And for people who break 2-3 glasses per party on an average, you’ll need some disposable cutlery too.

 

5. And if you’ve got an open terrace, why not have a barbeque?

Freshly grilled kebabs are the absolute best, especially if you are making it on your own grill and with your own special skills. Barbecuing is one of the most fun options if you are throwing an office party. Believe me, you are not going to regret this. Buy now on Paytm.

 

6. Playing cards and board games to keep the party alive!

It does add more jazz to the party, you’ll have to admit. Yes, that one friend will get over competitive, and that other guy won’t care about the rules, and that couple will cheat to help each other; but you all will end up having a lot of fun.

Also, playing a couple of card drinking games will have even the most antisocial among friends up on their feet.

 

7. A selfie stick to memorialise this insane bash!

Well, you definitely need a lot of pictures to look back at your first very successful attempt at throwing a dope party. And no, no one will be willing to click group shots because they all want to be in it. Why compromise? Buy a selfie stick!

Drunk selfies are just the cutest! Buy now on Paytm.

 

8. A hookah for showing off some cool smoke tricks!

It’s impossible for you to not have friends who don’t love hookah. How else will they show that they can make 5 rings one after the other and an arrow fly through them just by using their mouth? Don’t give them a chance to complain!

 

9.  A karaoke machine for yelling out your favourite hits!

Oh, this thing has to power to convert introverts into blazing stage performers. There’s literally no one who doesn’t enjoy a good karaoke. Listening to classics is so cliche. Time to create your own classics. Buy now on Paytm.

 

10. And lots of pizzas because, why not?

Well, pizza is everyone’s true love and by any chance, if you have that ONE friend who can’t stop complaining about everything at your party, some hot and yummy slices will definitely suffice!

Honestly, if your NYE party checks off most of these, you’re never going to want to attend a commercial party ever again.

 

Now that you know of the must-haves for the big bash, head to ‘The Party Store‘ at  Paytm and shop for things from the comfort of your home. Gear up for the New Year celebrations. Cheers to a great year! ??
