Planning the perfect New Years Party doesn’t need to be overly difficult or complicated. Just a few simple things hear and there will go a long way into turning the night into an extravagant and happy affair.
1. Music
Creating a New Years playlist ahead of time will mean you can easily find all the tunes you want to play on the night without any fuss or unwanted lulls. Find songs that are upbeat and easy to move to. This will help to set the mood and get your guests dancing the night away!
2. Dim the lights
Dimming the lights has always been one of the most elegant ways to set the atmosphere for a grand occasion. So make sure to dim your lights right down, to give your party a more relaxed and inviting tone. However to avoid turning your space into a dark and under lit one don’t forget to supplement your lighting with soft, atmospheric candles or even a lit fireplace if you have one.

If for some reason candles are not an option however, fairy lights will also do the trick. These little touches really do go a long way in lifting up the grandeur of a party and transforming an ordinary space into one that’s fun, sophisticated and ready for the New Year!
3. Set the Dinner Table

A sit down dinner at an extravagantly decorated table is a must for any New Years Party! New years parties are the perfect excuse to go wild and really dress up the place. From floral decorations to scattered confetti, this is the time to let your creativity shine! Elegant and sophisticated a late sit down dinner will also keep you going until midnight!
Furthermore, it will also give you the opportunity to properly engage with your guests and have a proper engaging conversation. A time for reminiscing with friends and family on years gone by and also to make and share all your New Years resolutions, sit down dinners have a warm and intimate feel to them that’s just right.
4. Festive Party Food
Depending on how much of a foodie you are you could prepare a full 3-course meal fit for royalty that will be impressive and go down a treat! On the other hand, a buffet style with nibbles and canopies can be equally decedent and may be easier depending on how many people you have coming over. Just make sure to go for foods that you can prepare ahead of time so you’re not stuck in the kitchen on the night!
5. A Pop of Champagne
Time to cork open the bubbly! No New Years celebration would be complete without at least one bottle of bubble to burst open and welcome in the New Year! Also having some Champaigne glasses set aside for the News years toast is always a good idea to help you get a head. You can even add some fun decorations or embellishments to your glasses to make them a bit more unique and fitting the occasion.
6. Create a Photo Wall
A photo wall in not necessary or for everyone, however if it’s something you think you or your guest would enjoy, then it’s the perfect opportunity to have a bit of fun. Simply find a blank wall or space to decorate and adore with a paper garland, fairy lights, wintery foliage, flowers or a Happy New Years sign. Be as creative as you like and then you’ll be able to take treasured photos with your loved ones that you can look back on for years to come.
7. Fireworks and Sparklers and Party Poppers!
Now it would be a New Years party without a bit of sparkle and a bang! Party poppers are easy to find and you can even put them on the dinner table or have them out ahead of time ready for the countdown.
Sparkles are also a fun addition to any New Years party, especially if you can find indoor safe ones. There’s just something so exciting about sparklers whether they are ones you hold in your hand or ones you place atop decadent puddings! Sparkles are a fun and simple entertainment that won’t fail to razzle dazzle your guests!
And finally we have Fireworks! If you have local fireworks in your areas you could plan a trip out to see them into your party agenda. However if you don’t wish to leave the comfort of the party then there are still other ways to have some fireworks at midnight.

Secondly you could also watch the spectacular London Fireworks as they are always televised. And this way you get to see some of the best fireworks there are all from the comfort of your own home.
