Ideas for a "Black Out" High School Dance |
|
|
I am a senior in high school and I am on student council. I am in charge of planing our 1st school dance and I want to make it really fun because we don't have a good history of attendance. The theme is "Black Out" and everything is going to be black and dark. Any ideas on anything to add or sell? Please Help! Thanks!

My Junior class recently had the "Day in the Dark" theme for homecoming this year. All we really did was hang up black paper on the walls, floor, and lockers. Then we splattered them with neon like Pink, Orange, Green, and Yellow on them. Then we also had a large black tarp hung up, with black paper to drape and darken the hall. With black lights, techno, and fog machines it was great.

I would definitely do some types of glow sticks or glow necklaces. Or if you have ever heard of mixing water with highlighters and then putting it in bottles, that looks really really cool! Have a variety of music that is easy to dance to! Too much techno or too much rap and people get discouraged from dancing!

You can have strobe lights too. Flashing so it looks like everything is in slow motion.

Have a contest to see what people can make out of glow sticks. See what local businesses will donate for prizes. we bought a cool fireworks light on e-bay for 30.00 It worked great. Also,check out mushroom light.

I think that everything should be black like you have it but have the kids come in bright colors that will be really cool because it will be black and dark but when the lights are going out and over everyone it will look really cool.

Just remember that if you use the glow sticks, some people like to break them and throw them around at people. I have also heard that if you use the blacklights, certain attire can be see through but I am not sure of it. Have a blast!

If it's a black out have it in the cafeteria and split it into two. One side all black with black lights lining one of the side walls, the other side have tables for sitting and the munchies and some type of other game, like a dance contest or wii

Maybe you could get a strobe light just for some cool effect.

you should have black lights put around certain parts of the dance hall.

I am the Student Body Secretary/Treasurer at my school. We are also planning our Homecoming Dance to be a "Black Out" sort-of theme. In addition to the glow sticks and neon lights, we also are getting some white fabric and draping it on trees and then have spotlights with black-light bulbs in them. We also bought a ton of those glow-in-the-dark stars to hang everywhere and put on the walls and stuff. Umm... good luck with your dance and I hope it works out! :)

Those mini or not-so-mini glow sticks, necklaces, etc. might go nicely with the black out theme; although they are not black, they go nicely with it!
Consider decorating part of the party area with neon colors & a few black lights? for contrast.
