In case you missed the news: Super Bowl LVIII is on Sunday, February 11. Even if you’re not very into the game, and the only reason you’re watching is to see Usher perform during the halftime show, hosting a party that day is just plain fun. It’s a chance to gather all of your friends under one roof, indulge in tasty bar snacks, and root for your favorite team. With a little less than a month to go, we’re gathering the best Super Bowl and football-themed decorations to welcome our guests to a fun, festive space where they’ll cheer, cry, and everything in between.

Outfit your home with pieces like a colorful flag banner or tablecloth (dipping wings in sauces can get messy) that will remind your guests what day it is. At the very least, it will give them, and you, a good background against which you can snap a few sweet shots to savor later on. If hanging up a sign and football lanterns doesn't feel very you, perhaps you're better off buying decorative pieces for the table. We love these football-shaped wooden serving trays and sporty co*cktail picks for your charcuterie board. Since game day naturally involves drinking, set up a mini kegerator on the table too. You can even extend the theme into your bathroom: just light CE Crafts Football Sundays candle to keep the space smelling fresh of lavender and cedar wood for guests.

Ahead, we rounded up more than 20 decorations that will get your home fan-ready. Our final piece of advice? Go ahead and order all of your favorite essentials before they sell out because we have a feeling every Super Bowl watch party host will be buying the same items you plan on snagging.

Whether you pop these football-topped co*cktail picks into cupcakes or cheese cubes, you'll enjoy the on-theme motif almost as much as your guests will. They're perhaps the lowest effort decoration because all you have to do is stick them into your array of bite-sized delicacies and call it a day.
