  • Costumes: Help guests plan their Halloween costumes with the hoedown theme. Purchase or make your own cowboy costume for the party.

  • Decorations: Keep the decorations specific to the western theme. Decorate your Halloween hoedown party location with bales of hay to create a barn dance feel and to provide extra seating. Hang lassos on the walls along with cowboy hats. Hand out brightly colored bandannas to your guests to help them accessorize!
  • Food: Serve barbecue or smoked-style southern food. Make or purchase Mexican style and Tex-Mex food such as fish tacos and burritos.
  • Entertainment: Hire a live band to play country western music or break out your favorite country playlists. Plan entertainment for the guests and hire a local dance teacher for line dancing lessons.
A western Halloween hoedown theme party is the perfect way to get into the spirit of this fun holiday. Dance, eat, and laugh the night away with family and friends!
