The ’80s were a time when long hair, skinny jeans, electric guitar, and awesome music ruled the roost. If he’s throwing an 80’s party, games that tie these elements together will give him lots of fun in every way.
80’S PARTY GAME “AIR GUITAR SHOWDOWN”
From Van Halen to ACDC to Poison to Motley Crue and everything in between, the ’80s were a classic era for rock music. What better way to pay homage to the 80’s than with an 80’s party game of air guitar competition? In terms of ’80s party games, this is truly one of the best. Two or more guests (depending on the number) have to act as judges and turn up the volume of the music while everyone else shows off their air guitar prowess. The music stops at intervals, and each time the guitarist with the least creative and flamboyant air is discarded. The last person standing is the winner of this 80s party game and the air guitar champion of your party.
80’S PARTY GAME “NAME THAT TUNE”
When it comes to quintessential ’80s party games, “Name That Tune” is a classic. Guests can play individually, in pairs, or in small groups. Snippets of 1980s songs are played, and players must name each song by title and artist (half points may be awarded at the host’s discretion). The player or team with the most correct answers wins this 80’s party game.
Whether reminiscing about the era makes you smile or makes you cringe, a party dedicated to the ’80s (party games are an absolute must) is a fantastic way to remember a classic era.
