How to Prepare your Home for Eurovision

Posted on: Friday, May 12, 2023


Eurovision is an annual extravaganza that brings people together from all over Europe and beyond to celebrate music, culture, and, let's be honest, some wonderfully over-the-top performances. Whether you're a die-hard Eurovision fan or just a casual viewer, getting your home ready for the event can add to the excitement and create a fantastic atmosphere. So, if you're ready to dive into the Eurovision spirit, here are some tips on how to get your home ready for the big night...

 

Decorate with flags and bunting

One of the easiest and most effective ways to create an exciting ambiance for any party is to decorate your home with flags and bunting. Display flags from participating countries or hang colourful bunting in the living room to get your guests in the mood for singing and dancing.

 

Themed food and drinks

Eurovision is a great opportunity to explore different cuisines and flavours from around Europe

Eurovision is a great opportunity to explore different cuisines and flavours from around Europe. For example, you could offer Italian pizza, Spanish paella, Swedish meatballs, or Greek tzatziki. Don't forget to have some Eurovision-themed cocktails or mocktails to add to the festivities!

 

Create a voting station

Eurovision wouldn't be complete without the voting process. Set up a voting station in your home where your guests can cast their votes. Prepare ballots with the names of participating countries, or create a digital voting system using smartphones or tablets. You can even set up a voting board to keep track of the scores throughout the night.

 

Dress the part

Encourage your guests to dress up in Eurovision-inspired costumes or outfits that represent a particular country. This adds an element of fun and allows everyone to embrace the spirit of the event. Whether it's sequins, outrageous costumes, or traditional attire, let your creativity run wild.

 

Set up a photo booth

Create a Eurovision-themed photo booth where your guests can strike a pose and capture the memories of the evening

Create a Eurovision-themed photo booth where your guests can strike a pose and capture the memories of the evening. Hang a backdrop with the Eurovision logo or flags, provide props like microphones, wigs, and costumes, and set up some good lighting. You can even create a hashtag for your party and encourage guests to share their photos on social media.

 

Eurovision playlist

No Eurovision party is complete without a playlist of the most memorable Eurovision hits. Compile a selection of classic Eurovision songs, as well as the current year's entries, to keep the atmosphere lively before and after the performances. Let the music play throughout the evening to keep the party going.

 

Interactive games and trivia

Keep the energy high during the Eurovision broadcast by incorporating interactive games and trivia. Create Eurovision-themed bingo cards with song titles or predict outrageous performance moments. You can also prepare trivia questions about Eurovision history, past winners, and interesting facts to test your guests' knowledge.

 

Embrace the cheesy moments

Embrace the kitschiest and encourage your guests to cheer, sing along, and dance during the acts

Let's face it, Eurovision is known for its cheesy and eccentric performances. Embrace the kitschiest and encourage your guests to cheer, sing along, and dance during the acts. Don't be afraid to let loose and have fun – after all, Eurovision is all about celebrating music and cultural diversity.

I would highly recommend Hardings Estate Agents. They have excellent knowledge of Windsor and the surrounding areas, and are extremely professional, responsive and courteous. I would not hesitate to using them again the future. I recently dealt with Milica who was instrumental in securing us our new home in Windsor as well as the sale of our existing property. She was a fab negotiator and a real pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Thank you!

Hardings of Windsor managed our purchase with complete professionalism and went over and above in my opinion to manage the transaction and chain, resulting in a really smooth purchase. Milica at Hardings constantly provided timely updates and managed respective solicitors and the chain effectively, always responding quickly to queries. The whole transaction would not have happened without Milicas' focus on making all parties comfortable and satisfying all queries, not only professional but a delightful and welcoming personal approach that was a constant throughout. Thanks Hardings! Thanks Milica!

I would recommend using Hardings estate agents when buying or selling your property. Dominic (Scully) was always available, helpful and genuinely interested in my purchase and always calm and compassionate. If I ever move again my first choice will be Hardings.

Dom and the team at Hardings were so helpful and efficient when I purchased my flat - friendly and professional service and kept us up-to-date the whole way through the process. It was my first time buying and so was very nervous but they helped me feel at ease.

We recently purchased our new home with Hardings Estate Agents. The whole team there were very helpful and flexible with us, arranging viewings quickly on the same day. They were always quick to respond and if ever our point of contact was not there, the service did not change as they work well together as a team. We received a personalised service, which allowed the sale to proceed quickly. Thank you all and we recommend Hardings Estate Agents without hesitation.

What a pleasure it was to deal with Milica from Hardings. She sourced the perfect property for me and my family (while we were still abroad) and worked endlessly to put the deal together. I would give more than 5 stars if at all possible!
