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.
How sweet are these yard line coasters that look and feel like they're made of turf? They come in a set of nine, each of which bares a different number, meaning no one will lose track of their respective glass.

Aodaer Football-Shaped Pine Serving Tray, Set of 3
No, we would not break these football-shaped serving trays out for a typical dinner party, but on Super Bowl Sunday, they'll make an appearance. After all, they come in a set of three and are made of durable pine. So even if one of them falls to the floor in a moment of game-related rage, they won't crack or break.

Burton +Burton Football Stadium Chip and Dip Set
Burton +Burton Football Stadium Chip and Dip Set
We don't want to pick favorites, but this chip and dip set is almost too adorable. Hand-painted to look like a crowded football stadium, it's a ceramic masterpiece that will definitely be one of the most eye-catching elements at the bash. Sadly, the game may take some of the attention away, but this sweet set is there for the fans when they get hangry.
This is a good investment that you'll use long after the Super Bowl—especially if you enjoy an ice-cold brew from time to time. It may be a bit more compact than what you'd find in your go-to sports bar, but this kegerator and dispenser accepts standard five-liter kegs, includes three O2 cartridges for pressure control, and thermoelectric cooling technology. This will definitely keep your guests happy, even if their team loses.
No, this doesn't smell like beer, chicken wings, or a football. Rather, it features notes of mahogany, teakwood, lavender, geranium, cedar, and a hint of oak. This candle will be your go-to for a heavenly scent whenever you're in the mood for something sweet.

You won't get twice as much use out of this set, but if you are (or live with) someone who likes to stay by the television every Sunday in the fall, this is a worthy set. Just blow them up, fill them with ice, and pop in your favorite beverages.
No Super Bowl party is complete without a buffet table. So once you arrange all of the bar-inspired food—sliders, guacamole, and nachos, to name a few—scatter this football-shaped confetti between the dishes. It's a nice and highly affordable decor touch for the table.
If you have empty wall space and want to make it feel a bit more festive, go ahead and hang these flag banners. Each set includes four banners, which is a steal for just $10. There's no pressure to reuse these for your next soirée.

MADARC SPORT Reversible Shot Glasses, Set of 4
MADARC SPORT Reversible Shot Glasses, Set of 4
Knocking back a shot is a bit daunting to anyone over the age of 23, but these shot glasses are so cute that we felt obliged to include them on our list. They're reversible, so feel free to down the liquor (or juice) from the football or the empty space around it. Just flip the glass over.
Few house parties get as messy as Super Bowl ones, so if you want to protect your furniture, opt for a tablecloth, which is as festive as it is functional. We hate to break it to you, but if there are any real football fans at your party, there will be spills.
Yes, you can use any small bowls you have lying around for a selection of dips. You can also opt for a matching porcelain set that sits atop a natural hardwood tray. Whether you fill the bowls with queso, salsa, and guacamole or different types of candy, your guests will thank you.

Generally speaking, novelty paper napkins aren't really our thing, but we'll make an exception for the Super Bowl. Just make sure you invite a lot of people because this set includes 100 napkins!
When there's a lull in the game, break this thing out, which includes everything you need to get to the candy, including a blindfold and a stick. Just don't forget to load it with candy!
Okay, how cute is this $27 snack dispenser? It's the exact size of a real football, so make sure to stick it somewhere it won't get lost in the mix of other, larger decor. We suggest popping it on the dessert table and filling it with hard-ish candy, like Jelly Beans or gumballs.

For obvious reasons, Dizoon doesn't send the whole alphabet per order. Instead, the brand sells each letter à la carte, so figure out what word feels most fitting for the evening (like "touchdown" or "score") and fill them with helium before your guests arrive.
These miniature coats may not bear any team logos, but we'd consider that a good thing since we don't yet know who's going to face off on game day. Plus, because they're team-less, you can use them all year. The best part? Unlike regular coats, these are designed to keep your drinks cold on hot days.
Wilton Wilton Football Novelty Cake Pan
No, this piece of decor isn't a cake—well, not technically. It's a football-shaped cake pan. So feel free to enlist your go-to favorite cake recipe, but when your creation is done baking, be sure to decorate it like a football. Icing bags and spatulas will definitely get the job done.

It's not game day without a foam finger whacking someone in the face. Luckily, these ones are mini, so an accidental tap won't be so disorienting.
Stick this rustic letter board somewhere in the foyer to welcome your guests to one of the most fun nights of the year. Feel free to write something sweet, saucy, or supportive. Just don't lose any of the included letters because you'll definitely want to use this again.
