THE ULTIMATE HALO PARTY — PARTY FOOD, DECORATING & ACTIVITY IDEAS
Calling all Spartans!
Are you planning a Halo video game party this year?
Halo is a shooter game with a sci-fi story.
The HALO universe has been the inspo for books, merch, and comics, not to mention the recent Paramount+ TV series.
And now, my friend, it can be the inspiration for your big day, right in your backyard!
In this blog, you'll find some cool ideas for a Halo party at your place. After all, there is a lot at stake! The balance of cosmic domination and the invasion of "REACH" (aka your backyard) where your mob join forces for a thrilling event. And your heroes need to save the day!

Who's in?
Get everyone excited about the theme for your home-based party with some fun birthday party invites.
Consider who is on your "A" list. Who just HAS to be there? (It's a good idea to check in with your kid's BFF to see if they are available on your proposed date before you send out mass invitations.)
For more ideas on how to get those all-important RSVPs and other ideas about invitations check out my "Laser Tag Logs Podcast" S1.E1.
Choose from several party invitation designs.
Which books, comics or movies will inspire your party planning?
Is #117 your favourite number?
Whichever you choose, have fun with it!
Costume ideas are plenty.
There's a universe of inspiration
Play indoors or outdoors
A cool idea is to issue each of the party-goers with a lanyard, on arrival. Paint their faces with some camo paint. You could even rent some camo tablecloths for your party table.
There might not be so many ready-made Halo party supplies when compared with, say Star Wars merch. But this allows you to be creative! Or, when in doubt, simply go camo!
And then play some thrilling laser tag games. Imagine this: it's the Covenant vs the Spartans in a TDM.

Who is your favourite HALO hero?
Of course, Master Chief is a hero. But, seriously, any Spartan is priceless.
Who is your favourite heroine?
Or do you prefer Cortana?
Obviously, you need to take some pics.
Having the kids in costumes creates some WOW and it is terrific for the photos. You can rent a camo net and use it as a photo backdrop.
The camo net backdrop is easy to set up. Each one is 2m wide x 4m tall when spread out (roughly the size of a bedsheet). No assembly is required.
Don't forget to Pin it:
When you rent a set of taggers from Laser Tag in a Box, you can play games like Domination (aka Capture & Hold). Not you will need to make sure you rent the optional game box to play this game.
