How to Host the Ultimate Adult Sleepover Cath Kidston - cathkidston.com

Some of our best childhood memories are of sleepovers – snacks, movies, and gossip made for the ultimate night with friends. Instead of just looking back fondly, why not host the ultimate adult sleepover? This time, there’s no “lights out” deadline to stop the fun!

You can splash out on decorations or set up karaoke.

ake off those heels and get into your slippers – grab popcorn and face masks. We will explore the best tips and tricks to organise the ultimate adult sleepover.

Adding alcohol to your night-in can make this a sleepover to remember or forget!

T

Set a theme Whether this is a “night at the movies” or a throwback to your childhood around the 80s, 90s, or noughties, setting a theme can provide plenty of entertainment for your evening. 162

This will add structure to your evening while being a fun novelty. A theme can help organise the other tips in this list, such as drinks and a movie marathon.

Make it a cocktail party

You could assign each member to make cocktail recipes based on the theme and throw a contest for the best drink – including mocktail alternatives for your friends who don’t drink. This is a fantastic way to bring out your friends’ competitive spirits while everyone gets to enjoy new drinks.

LANCASHIRE & NORTH WEST MAGAZINE

If you plan to have a movie marathon during your sleepover, you could play drinking bingo. This involves setting a list of rules and things to look out for. If you are watching cheesy rom-coms of the nineties, you can drink every time the lead male confesses his love in public, for example.

Food Food and snacks are a staple of any sleepover, and an adult one is no exception. However, you don’t have parents telling you what you can’t eat this time. Splash out and gather as much junk food as possible – it is good to splurge occasionally. Set up a pizza-making station so that your friends can try their hand at making the best pizzas.
