Super Bowl Fiesta

Ole! One of our favorite themes is that Southwestern thing. Add some football for a super theme. It's easy to do, and there is a never-ending supply of great party items that go with this theme. Grab your hat and shuffle on south to celebrate.

This theme is just one way to have a fiesta. For more great ideas, visit our Fiesta Planning Guide or go to our Fiesta Decorating411 and take your own festive journey south of the border.

Super Bowl Fiesta Invitations

We have two Football Fiesta Invitation designs perfect for your Football Fiesta, or choose from our other great personalized football invitations. Our personalized Super Bowl XLIII invites are another great option!

You can also make your own Super Bowl fiesta invitation. Brightly colored paper with fun football wording like "You'll need a siesta after this Super Bowl Fiesta!" will get the RSVPs flying in! Make it really special by throwing in a pair of mini maracas. You'll need to send it in a padded envelope, but just imagine your guest's faces!

One of our most popular style of invitations for any football party are our ticket invitations. You get to use your own wording, choose from nine colors and can order as few as 30. (The orange or blue tickets are perfect for a fiesta theme).

Super Bowl invitations are another great option. Just fill in your party information, throw them in the mail, and you are all set! However you decide to invite your guests, let them know they should dress "Football Fiesta Festive". Most of the fun will be in seeing how they interpret that!

Super Bowl Fiesta Decorations and Party Supplies

Welcome your guests with a life-size Football Fiesta cutout of you or a friend as a Fiesta Football player with a speech bubble! You can also get a great Football Fiesta photo op for your guests to take pictures with.  Then have a Super Bowl door banner that welcomes them to your fiesta.  On the walls, have 5' cacti to set the scene.

Hot pepper lights surround the bars, the buffets but most importantly--the TV. And football lights mixed with the cactus lights can light up the walkway and entry to your party. A real fiesta first down! And football dangles hanging from the ceiling and a few fiesta cascades will liven up any party space.

A fiesta mariachi band scene setter is perfect for decorating a large blank wall. Use colorful latex balloons mixed with Mylar sombrero fiesta balloons to make fun balloon bouquets. You can use a helium tank and inflate them yourselves or hire a local balloon company for your balloons. These should be placed throughout the room for an overall effect.

When I watch football I love to get dressed up and make a lot of noise. Get your guests to go crazy during the game by providing them with a few wearables and noisemakers. Here are a few of our favorites:

• Sombreros

• Beer Sunglasses

• Light-up Maracas

• Football Horn

• Fiesta Confetti Clacker

• Football Beads

Like everything else, stay in theme by mixing fiesta party items, and football party items.

Super Bowl Fiesta Menu and Table Decorations

There are plenty of great ways to decorate your table Fiesta Football chic. Well, maybe chic is a bad choice of words, since we are talking contact sports here, but definitely Fiesta football FUN! Use a grass field table cover and Super Bowl XLIII theme paper goods to set your table. Set a neon margarita cup at each place setting. You may want to use fiesta bandanas as napkins for something fun. Then take a few small sombreros on the middle of the table and fill the brim with chips or pretzels. Yum! You can add a little more fiesta to the table by using fiesta paper goods for dessert.

So what to serve? Two words -TACO BAR! Set out hard and soft tacos with all of the trimmings; grilled steak and chicken, ground beef, fajita mix, lettuce, tomatoes, Mexican rice, taco sauce, sour cream and lots of cheese. You should have a variety of salsas and some guacamole so people can build up a plate of nachos as well.

Does your theme dictate what type of drinks you serve? I would say yes. When you say fiesta, you think margaritas. When you say football you naturally think beer. So why not combine the two in a tasty beer margarita, or better yet a Corona Margarita!

Corona Margarita

• 6 ounces white or blanco tequila
• 12 ounces Corona
• 6 ounces frozen limeade concentrate
• Ice cubes to suit
• Lime flavored salt
• Lime wedge (optional)

Cover the rim of the glass with the salt.  Pour all ingredients into blender and blend well.  Pour it in a flashing margarita glass. Garnish with a lime wedge.

Besides your Corona Margaritas, you can serve bottles of Corona with personalized beer bottle labels. Make sure you have some fun non-alcoholic drinks like soda a bottled water. An inflatable sombrero cooler filled with ice is perfect for displaying all of the drink selections.

And don't forget dessert! Be sure to include three-milk cake, flan, and empanadas. ¡Hola Fruta!™, the new all natural, pure fruit sherbet, makes a great addition to your Mexican dessert buffet.  Be sure to enter to win a Friday Fiesta, which includes 5 quarts of ¡Hola Fruta!™, as well as plenty of fiesta party supplies!

Super Bowl Fiesta Activities

Add some spice to your Super Bowl Fiesta by having a Hot Pepper Eating Contest. The challenge is to see how many hot peppers your guests can eat without bursting into flames. You are going to want to buy mostly mildly hot peppers like pepperoncini, banana peppers, and pimentos. But get some hot peppers for the brave guests; jalapeno, chili, and polano peppers all pack a wallop. And for the grand finale - habanera peppers. Prepare a table outside with big bowls of chilies, plates, and latex gloves, because some peppers tend to be hot to the touch. And pour glasses of milk for your friends to kill the burn of eating all those peppers! 

Want something a little more mild? How about beating a football piñata? Or maybe a sombrero piñata to stick to the theme. Works for me.  Don't forget the piñata filler set that is filled with candy and toys.  You may also want to get a piñata blindfold and bat for the game.

Super Bowl Fiesta Party Favors

Send your guests home with a great party favor to say "Thanks for coming!". What about a mini cactus? You can add a few football stickers to the pot!

And while not technically Mexican, a bottle of Tabasco Sauce with a personalized label or hang tag is a spicy reminder of your hot party!

A personalized fiesta candy bar is another great way to thank everyone for coming! Your guests will be thanking you for showing them such a great time. With help from the Party Girl and the Party411.com, all of your parties will be Excellente!
