10 Graduation Party Themes Everyone Will Love

Graduation party themes can be hard to think of. You don’t want to be too cheesy or pick a theme that has already been done a million times before. With graduation season almost upon us, you might be running out of planning time. That is why we have made a list of our 10 favourite graduation party themes to make your job easier!

1. When I Grow Up

The first of our top 10 graduation party themes is “when I grow up”.  There are two ways you can take this theme. Firstly, you can have everyone dress up as their career goal – so if you have just completed a medical degree you would dress as a doctor, or a teaching degree you would dress as a teacher. The other option is to have everyone dress up as what they said they wanted to be when they were five. This could be a ballerina, queen of the world, a fireman or a superhero. This theme is a fun way to celebrate the end of your degree and the beginning of your career journey.

You could either pick your favourite decade, the decade you were born or let everyone come dressed as the decade of their choosing. This theme is a good way to celebrate you and your achievements!

3. Dr Seuss

Possibly our favourite of all the graduation party themes is the Dr Seuss one. This theme is based on the book “oh the places you’ll go”. This theme is a colourful and fun one all about celebrating your success and what you are going to do. Make sure your decorations are rainbow and you have at least one copy of the book floating about. You can also print out a giant copy of the quote and paste it up for everyone to see.

Throwing it back to your childhood with your favourite movie is a fun and easy theme for your party. Get everyone to dress up, match your decorations to the movie and even have the movie or the soundtrack playing in the background.
