Galaxy Party ideas

  1. Paintball: Guests will have a blast attacking opposing teams of “space invaders” with paintball ammo. You can purchase regular paintball kits and add galaxy-inspired party masks to divide the guests into teams.
  2. Movies: Set up your living room, patio, or basement family room for movie viewing. Choose classics like Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, or 2001: A Space Odyssey.
  3. Stargazing: Have printouts of the different constellations to search for and spot in the night sky.
  4. Meteor shower: Make or decorate a round piñata to look like a meteor and fill it with candy. When your party guests break it open, the candy that falls is a “meteor shower.”
  5. Costumes: Ask guests to dress up as their favorite inter-galactic character.
