Let the parties begin!
Any affiliate in almost any niche can help their readers celebrate by sharing ideas for:
- Party invitations
- Party decorations (think flags)
- Barbeque recipes
- Drink recipes and ideas – my favorites, beer in a Canadian flag wetsuit (see pic below) or a Caesar in a glass with a Canadian flag drink umbrella 🙂
- Themed dessert recipes
- Party Games
Having hosted more than a few Canada Day block parties, I think of all those things that you need to support a crowd:
- BIG fancy ice buckets to hold beer and other drinks on the patio
- Shade umbrellas
- Flags (LOTS and lots of flags)
- Balloons
- Holiday Tableware (suggest plastic items for pool parties)
- Themed yard ornaments and pool toys
- Canvas chairs with Canadian flags (or hockey team logos)
- Beach towels with flags (no need for a pool, a sprinkler for the kids will do)
BTW, if you do a Google search for “Canada Day Party” with or without quotes, you should see 2 listings with some of my Canada Day party pictures come up from years past. 🙂

Because it was a Canada Day, part of our requirement to attend the party was to wear something red and white… so patriotic clothing is another suggestion you can share with your visitors.
