If you\u2019re looking for that knockout concept for your next corporate event, why not take advantage of the popularity of the movie version of The Great Gatsby and people\u2019s love of all things vintage?
\nWhether it\u2019s a private party, product launch or corporate event<\/a>, check out these ten event ideas inspired by the 1920s.<\/p>\n

1.Cabaret Evening<\/p>\n

The roaring twenties was an era full of decadence and entertainment<\/a>, so a cabaret evening would suit the 1920s theme perfectly, and will be a whole lot of fun for guests! You have a whole range of fantastic entertainment ideas open to you, like lounge singers, aerial acrobats or even risqu\u00e9 burlesque performers.<\/p>\n

2.Murder Mystery Night<\/p>\n

If your client\u2019s looking for something unusual for a smaller group (ten to twenty guests is ideal), a 1920s themed murder mystery night will definitely fit the bill. This works well for both private and corporate events, but will rely heavily on participation, so your client needs to be sure that their guests will be happy to join in!<\/p>\n

3.Secret Speakeasy<\/p>\n

The 1920s was an era when prohibition was in full force, and parties had to take place in secret. Why not make the most of this idea and plan a speakeasy themed event? Including a secret code-word on invitations that attendees have to use to enter adds an extra bit of authenticity and fun to proceedings.<\/p>\n

4.Jazz Night<\/p>\n

A live jazz band will really let guests get into the swing of things; the 1920s were, after all, known as the Jazz Age. Out of all the event ideas inspired by the 1920s, this is just the thing for music lovers.<\/p>\n

5.Dance Event<\/p>\n

A 1920s dance with live music is perfect for capitalizing on 1920s fever, and when you\u2019re thinking about the perfect venue for this, don\u2019t just consider the obvious. Maybe there\u2019s a slightly run-down hotel in the area that you wouldn\u2019t usually consider as a venue, but that could be hiding a fantastic art deco ballroom?<\/p>\n

6.Cocktail Party<\/p>\n

For a glamorous cocktail evening, think decadence and style. 1920s cocktails like Mint Juleps are sure to go down well, and a champagne tower will make attendees feel like they\u2019re in the home of Jay Gatsby himself.<\/p>\n

7.1920s Canap\u00e9 Party<\/p>\n

If your event needs to be dazzling but on the informal side, work with your caterers to produce a 1920s canap\u00e9 menu. Canap\u00e9s really came into their own during the 1920s, as they were perfect for soaking up all that bootleg liquor!<\/p>\n

8.1920s-Inspired Formal Dinner<\/p>\n

This would work from anything from a formal gala to an intimate corporate dinner, and you can combine food, cocktails and d\u00e9cor from the era for a fantastic atmosphere.<\/p>\n

9.Gatsby Garden Party<\/p>\n

Garden parties were all the rage in the 1920s, so if weather and location permit, go crazy with the fairy lights and paper lanterns for an enchanting outdoor event.<\/p>\n

10.Dress to Impress<\/p>\n

For any of these event ideas inspired by the 1920s, having a dress code will only add to the atmosphere and enjoyment. You may think that people won\u2019t like the idea of adults playing dress-up, but you\u2019ll probably find that they can\u2019t wait to slip into flapper dresses, ostrich feathers and zoot suits!<\/p>\n

These are just a few ideas for planning a 1920s inspired event; if you think creatively you can combine a number of elements of theme or style to produce an event with your own personal flair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
