Children's birthday in the style of gangsters. Mafia party. We decorate the hall for a gangster party

Gangster party COMPETITIONS.

Meeting with guests

Make sure that guests are greeted at the entrance by people in appropriate attire. It can be a boy - a newspaper seller in short pants, a baggy shirt and a cap on one side, who will invite guests and confidentially tell in honor of whom such a stormy celebration is arranged (birthday - the name day of the head of the clan, wedding - the beloved daughter of the godfather is getting married, corporate party - gathering on the occasion of the future case).

Guests can also be met by a photographer with an old camera, a cigar peddler or a girl dressed as a restaurant waitress from the 30s.

"Gangster common fund"

The gangster party revolves around money, so for the next competition you will need to prepare samples of money (sold in tents), preferably in dollar bills of different denominations. Then you lay out 10-15 banknotes on a tray and invite the audience to guess how much money is there. The winner receives the guessed amount.

"Money doesn't smell"

It is better to use real money in this contest. Several participants are called, they are blindfolded and their task is to determine by smell what denomination each banknote has.

"Outwit the Prohibition"

5 male volunteers are called, who are given a transparent glass with liquid poured into it and a straw. The host announces that water is poured into 4 glasses, and vodka is poured into one. The task of the players is to drink all the liquid from the glass through a straw so that others do not guess what is poured into it. Spectators have to guess who had a glass of vodka. As a result, it turns out that vodka was in the glasses of all the players.

"Accurate shooter"

Guests compete for the title of the most accurate shooter. To do this, several participants are called and plastic cups are placed on the table at a certain distance (a color is written on the back of each glass. Everyone who does not fall into the cup is eliminated. The second stage of the competition follows. All those who got in need to bring three things (from the guests) the color they knocked down. The one who does it first wins.

"Criminal couple"

The game is played by couples. Participants must be handcuffed to each other (or tied with a rope). We give each couple a bottle of alcoholic drink and a bright ribbon. The task of criminal friends is to tie a ribbon on the bottle with a bow. An important condition is that you can use it only with free hands.

"Hide the loot"

2 pairs of volunteers are called - 2 men and 2 women. Each couple gets 20 dollars (there should be 20 $1 bills) and the task for the girls is to hide this money in different secluded places on their man as quickly as possible. Pockets, lapels, a hat, boots, socks, etc. can be used as hiding places. The main thing is to hide only one bill in each "secluded place". Whoever does it faster - takes the money for himself.

"Slam the ball"

2-3 couples man + woman come out. Each pair is given 5 balloons. Pairs become facing each other, holding one ball between them. The task for each pair is to “slam” all the balls as quickly as possible without the help of arms and legs, moving bodies towards each other.

"Secret Spy"

For each of the teams, the host thinks of a certain phrase, which, with the help of gestures, one of the team players must show so that the team guesses as quickly as possible. Speed ​​and artistry are judged.

Please click the "Tell your friends" buttons, we will be pleased :)

"Card cheat"

Players receive several decks of cards. They have to hide the cards on themselves. They cannot be placed in the same place. When the participants have already completed the task, the facilitator announces that this was only the beginning. The winner will be the one who finds on himself and provides the host, for example, with the queen of spades. Players will have to work hard to find one single card among those that have been carefully laid out. The fastest one wins.

At the end of the evening, invite guests to choose and approve the "godfather" by secret ballot. Be sure to have your ballots ready. It will be funny if only one voter is indicated on the ballot, which will need to be chosen.

A Chicago-style retro party is one of the most popular themes for celebrations and just friendly meetings. A special entourage of the crazy 30s, fragrant cigar smoke, forbidden alcohol, women and men brilliant in every sense “from the needle”, gambling to great music! Guests will surely appreciate and remember for a long time a little trip into the past.

Scenery

To create a vintage atmosphere, it is not necessary to fill the room with antiques. Of course, it will be great if you can find something "antique" of those years - ashtrays, dishes, a record player and records, fringed lampshades and heavy candlesticks, old postcards and figurines. But it is quite possible to get by with aged posters (sepia or b / w) - photos of Chicago, movie stars, jazz performers, swing and tango dancers. Frames from films about gangsters and the mafia will fit into the theme, because this was their era!

The interior breathes style, high cost and pomposity. There are rich curtains on the windows, solid carved furniture or hidden under textiles. In crystal vases, fresh scarlet roses or snow-white hydrangeas. The color scheme of the evening is mostly black or dark brown, white, a lot of deep red. For mini-compositions and garlands, everything related to gambling (cards, chips, roulette, dice), weapons, banknotes, feathers and beads will do. Garlands with small rounded bulbs will fit perfectly, but there should be a lot of them. Do not forget to hide modern interior elements under the scenery.

Invitations:

  • a postcard in the form of a dancing couple, a vinyl record, a cigar, in the form of hats (male and female, respectively);
  • the original invitation on the back of a banknote, wine label, in the form of a machine gun or a pistol, a bullet, a grenade or brass knuckles will hint to friends about a mafia bias;
  • aged paper, calligraphic handwriting, slightly shabby edges, a golden pen and the appeal “Lady”, “Gentleman” will create the right mood in advance. A holiday only for the cream of society!

Suits

The image of the lady of the 30s is playful and foolishly sloppy. Bright lips with a bow and bold black arrows, fluffy cilia and eccentric curls. Straight-cut dress with thin straps, embellished with sequins or sparkling fringe to the beat of the music. The classic length is just below the knees. High-heeled shoes, mesh stockings, a puffy boa, a long strand of beads or sparkling diamonds. The charming head of a seductive lady is decorated with a miniature hat with a feather, a large flower or a veil. As an option - a headband with the same fittings.

A man in a formal suit, dark monochrome or narrow stripes, with a bow tie or a classic tie. Cleaned shoes, a perfectly ironed white shirt, a handkerchief or a rose in the buttonhole of a jacket. The masculine image of Chicago 30s will be complemented by suspenders or a vest, a hat, a cane, a cigar. The standard of style, impeccable and unchanged in any situation!

For the most active guests or animators - the costume of a cabaret dancer, a gangster armed to the teeth, a bootlegger smuggler, a policeman in uniform, a newspaper boy in a tweed suit from someone else's shoulder and a sideways cap, a black jazzman.

Menu

Any snacks, cuts, seafood, salads in baskets, cheeses, tartlets and canapes. You can arrange a buffet table or seat guests at small tables for 2-4 people. The choice of dishes is almost unlimited, within the framework of American and European cuisine.

But everything should be beautiful, according to the highest category - sparkling dishes, neat portioned pieces, decorations from fruits and vegetables. Openwork napkins, skewers in a retro theme or ordinary transparent ones, without unnecessary details. To decorate dishes, you can use photos of celebrities of those years, make thematic inscriptions on napkins: “An open mouth kills a fish”, “You can achieve more with a kind word and a gun than just a kind word”, and other quotes.

Alcohol in those years was under the strictest ban, but cunning bootleggers supplied strong drinks in any quantity. Therefore, there are no restrictions here either - punches, cocktails, strong drinks for men, champagne and martini for ladies. For the surroundings, replace the labels with “pharmacy” stickers - a potion for boredom, an elixir of happiness, an infusion of vivacity (in the 20-30s, alcohol was sold in pharmacies as a remedy for insomnia and neurasthenia).

Entertainment

According to the script, guests are met by a waitress, a porter, or a newspaper boy handing out the latest issue of Chicago Today. The newspaper has photos of friends and small "scandalous" articles with humor. Tell your friends where you can get the missing accessories - prepare a table in advance with beads, hats and hats, fans, or even a mini dressing room.

Take a short tour and tell us that just a year ago there was a warehouse of bootleggers in this building. And, according to rumors, not all contraband was found during the raid! Hide small bottles of alcohol around the hall in advance. You can stick numbers on the bottoms - the more difficult it is to find the “stash”, the more reward points the team receives. Fake bullets or banknotes, old playing cards or chips that can be “cashed out” - exchanged for souvenirs are suitable as a reward for contests.

As an entertainment for the venerable public, any gambling is appropriate - cards, roulette, everything from the casino. The setting is perfect for playing mafia! You can invite a card magician or learn a few tricks and invite guests to guess what the secret of the trick is.

tricky question

A board game that liberates guests. The goal is to quickly come up with funny and original answers to the questions of the policeman. For example:

- Miss/Mr, why do you smell like alcohol?

- There's a brandy label stuck to your shoe. Where did she come from?

Best dancers

Couples competition, after a small short lesson on basic movements. Suitable foxtrot, swing, Charleston, Lindy Hop. The ideal music for the evening is jazz and blues, but you can use any retro compositions, soundtracks for films about Chicago in the 30s, even rock and roll. Perhaps your friends will be interested to know that dance marathons were popular in those years: couples danced literally until they dropped, until they hallucinated and fainted for several days without stopping!

Impenetrable

The host distributes paper cups and straws to several guests. The rest of the guests play the role of vigilant police patrolling the city park. Under the terms of the competition, one of the "vacationers" has prohibited alcohol in a glass! While some of the guests drink the contents of the glasses through a straw, the rest must guess who maliciously violates the dry law. Alcohol can be poured into all glasses, so it will be even funnier to watch the attempts of the “cops” to recognize the avid drinker among the teetotalers.

Money, money, money!

The host blindfolds the participants (2-5 guests) and gives out an impressive bundle of banknotes, half of which are fakes. The goal is to divide the bills into two packs in a minute, without peeping. Money can be touched, crushed, smelled, do anything, but not look! Fakes in the trash, the real ones go to the winner - the one who made the fewest mistakes and correctly separated the “flies from cutlets”.

The scenario coming to an end can be ended with a noisy spectacular fireworks display or a friendly firing at the ceiling. Hand out pistols with plastic bullets to guests, and hang balloons from the ceiling, partially filled with shiny serpentine and / or confetti. An unexpected sparkling rain is sure to be received with delight!

Of genuine interest are weddings and parties in the style of the mafia and gangsters from Chicago in the 30s. Guests are reincarnated: women enjoy it, and men feel like fearless bandits.

For a wedding or a themed party to be successful, you need to carefully prepare. Think over the design of invitations, decoration of the place of the party, costumes of the heroes of the occasion and guests, entertainment program corresponding to the theme.

You can create a scenario for a gangster party yourself. The main thing is that competitions, games and entertainment should be based on associations that are associated with Chicago in the 20s and 30s. These are shooting, weapons, money, cigars, whiskey, bandits, cards, police, roulette, handcuffs, etc.

bride kidnapping. It is well known that traditionally at wedding events, the bride is kidnapped. At a gangster wedding, this kidnapping can be theatrical or stylized. To the sound of shooting, people burst into the hall shouting: “Robbery! If you want to survive, stay where you are!” "Bandits" at this time "rob" the guests, collecting forfeits from them. A little later, the host will play them. The goal of the gang leader is to kidnap the bride. He turns her into a hostage and heads for the exit. The groom and his friends take off from their seats and start shooting. For this, toy guns with balls, caps or suction cups are used. A few minutes later, two policemen appear in the hall. They return the bride to the groom and put the bandits in handcuffs. The loot from the guests is taken away as material evidence. When the police have taken the bandits away, they can play forfeits and return the stolen items to their rightful owners.

Auctions, shops, casinos

There is another interesting entertainment moment: earning money or chips. To do this, you can use fake dollars. In the future, they are exchanged for gangster items. Money and chips are given to participants for games and contests. Of course, the winner gets more. Where the event is held, a mini-shop is organized. It opens only when the guests have enough chips or money in their hands. The goods in the store are decorative decks of cards, boas, cigars, framed dollars, the Mafia board game, etc. For more interest, you can organize a sale in the form of an auction. If someone does not have enough fake money, they will have to use real ones. In addition to the store, you can organize a mini-casino. For participation in games or contests, in this case, participants are given chips or counterfeit dollars to choose from. Then guests can purchase something in the store or go to the mini-casino and put in their chips. Bets are placed on a roulette wheel with numbers. The winners are given prizes on a gangster theme. But now they can be more expensive - for example, a cigarette case, a bottle of whiskey, a mouthpiece, etc.

Other entertainment with the involvement of professionals

To make a major gangster-style event brighter and more interesting, it is better to invite a professional presenter. A caricaturist may be invited to a Chicago-style party, who will draw caricatures on all the guests during the evening. He will draw on templates containing the inscription . If the plans do not include inviting professionals, you can organize a caricature contest in which any guest will take part.

"Gangster Nicknames". Many real gangsters had nicknames. This can be used to organize entertainment: guests are given small sheets of paper where they write their first and last name, as well as an invented nickname or gangster name. But this is done in such a way that the new name-nickname is a secret for those around.

Then the facilitator collects cards and checks how well the guests know each other. He reads out an invented name, and the guests must guess who is hiding under it. It will be quite interesting to find out who called themselves "Red Beast", "Big Joe", "Baby Carlito", "Golden Hand Jane" or "Rusty". During the entire gangster-style party, each other can be called made-up names.

Wedding game "Shooter". This is how regular darts are played. Paper sheets are pasted into some sectors of the target. They contain any problem that a married couple faces (quarrels, boredom, lack of money, betrayal, etc.) Other sectors contain sheets with something positive (mutual understanding, love to the grave, happiness, etc.) The groom with his friends must "shoot" all the problems and troubles with darts. For hitting a cell with positive factors and for a miss, they receive a fine (dollar or alcohol). This game is also appropriate at the time of redemption.

Game "Common Fund". A large box of fake dollars is given to several volunteers. It needs to be hidden quickly. Papers are put into the bosom, into pockets, into socks, etc. Participants can also be given rolls of toilet paper with dollars on it. You will have to tear off and hide pieces of paper from this roll. The one who quickly hides the "common fund" wins.

Game "Card cheat". Players receive several decks of cards. They have to hide the cards on themselves. They cannot be placed in the same place. When the participants have already completed the task, the facilitator announces that this was only the beginning. The winner will be the one who finds on himself and provides the host, for example, with the queen of spades. Players will have to work hard to find one single card among those that have been carefully laid out. The fastest one wins.

The game "Shoot-steal!". Participants receive sports and toy weapons. For example, it can be a slingshot, darts or a toy gun with balls. The target will be plastic cups located on the table. In each of them - a dollar, on the reverse side of which a certain color is written. In turn, the participants shoot. From the downed target, the presenter takes out a dollar and reads out the color. Now the shooters need to bring three things of this color to the leader. Guests need to find them. Those who miss the target are out of the game. The winner will be the one who brings the leader three things of the right color first.

The game "Money down the drain". Several participants stand in a line at some distance from each other. At the feet of each is a dollar. Then the task is announced. It is necessary to blow on the dollar so that it flies as far as possible. The person whose paper crosses the finish line first wins.

Game "Criminal couple". If a gangster wedding or a Chicago-style party, then handcuffs are indispensable. Couples are invited to participate. Participants in each pair are handcuffed to each other (you can use a rope). They are also given a bottle of whiskey and a ribbon. The host announces that well-known criminals who escaped from prison specifically for this came to congratulate the hero of the occasion. Now they need to wrap the gift. Who can do it faster? It's not so easy to tie a ribbon with a bow on a bottle when your hands are fastened. The gift will also need to be handed over. The fastest couple wins.

The game "Dividing the loot". The host has a three-liter jar with money (papers and change). It is announced that the gangsters have robbed a bank and will share the profits. At the same time, they do not want to take money out of the bank, so that no one pockets too much. It is necessary to determine by eye how many dollars-rubles one of ten gangsters will get, if divided equally. Participants put forward their versions based on the value of coins and banknotes, as well as the degree of fullness of the bank. The one with the most accurate number wins.

Let your holiday be the most stylish!

Any person who loves to travel can make a personal list of cities in which Chicago will take one of the top places. A metropolis that has not lost the character of the original American lands, full of a peculiar charm. The city, which the locals respectfully call "Chicago Land" (Chicago Land) may be reminiscent of its rich criminal past.

If you participate in an intellectual quiz and you get the question “What city of America is called "City of winds?" , the answer will be obvious. And the locals very nicely pronounce the name of the capital of the state of Illinois - Shikagou (comedian Jim Carrey masterfully beat this feature in the film "Ace Ventura - Search for the Lost Animals").

A series of monotonous gray everyday life, especially against the backdrop of a dull autumn blues, can ruin the nervous system, and with it the performance of any, even the strongest person. The traditional feast is an abundance of heavy food, strong alcohol and stomping on the spot to the music of pop radio stations, which the performers call "dancing". Such a weekend is not able to give the necessary surge of strength to the modern resident of a big city, a bright fresh stream is needed in spending our leisure time.

Often idea for the themed Chicago party, the crazy years of the Great American Depression are chosen. And they hit the top ten! Stylish clothes, incendiary jazz rhythms, atypical drinks will help you go back many years and understand how people had fun three, and for some even four generations ago. And this despite the famous Great Depression, compared with which the financial crisis of our time may seem like a minor nuisance that passes painlessly. A modern person mimicking the gangsters of the 1920s and 30s will discover atypical and not always negative patterns of behavior in society that will help him in everyday life in the stone jungle of megacities.

invitations

Invitation cards for a Chicago-style party, with a description of the venue, start time and mandatory dress code, can be printed on dollar bills of various denominations. Make them larger than usual banknotes, be sure to add pictures with “ondor-armed bandits” or dice, make them black and white. If you use the classic “postcard” format, then write the text on narrow strips of a teletype tape or lightning telegram. The invitation can also be printed on a printer, rolled up into a cigar and, wrapped with a thematic tape, handed over to the recipient. Or make it with your own hands: cut out the figures on a stencil on a given topic from black paper, carefully stick it on thick cardboard, write the text itself in calligraphic handwriting or type.

Suits

Women's outfits of that era are distinguished by straight forms, not emphasizing the waist, long below the knees. The hairstyle was decorated with bandages, complex styling of curled hair, as accessories used a fan, mouthpiece, boa made of feathers or faux fur. They wore long, mostly elbow-length, satin or velvet gloves, shoes with low heels, and stockings with a pronounced seam at the back. Coquettes chose heavy dark makeup, the general pallor of the skin and bright scarlet lips were in fashion. Pearl beads and numerous bracelets completed the look.

Women of the thirties had freer concepts and mores than their mothers, and even more so grandmothers. Dresses became shorter, styles more defiant. An indispensable addition to a short dress is steel stockings made from silk or nylon. Modern fashionistas can easily recreate them by wearing black fishnet stockings. Of great importance is the decoration of the edges of the dress: they were decorated with fringe, embroidery, decorated with pearls, beads or semi-precious stones.

Photo of women's suits


For men, strict three-piece suits were valued, regardless of social status and wealth. The costume was chosen in gray, black or chocolate shades, the presence of vests. They picked up a light or dark shirt, wore suspenders, rolled up their sleeves everywhere, used a hat and tie. No shades of flesh color were allowed, and the neckerchief and other manifestations of the avant-garde of that time were also swept aside. In cool damp weather, they put on a coat or raincoat, hid from the weather under a cane umbrella, and wore white gloves. As for shoes, they sported patent leather shoes with pointed toes.

In general, men's fashion is built on conservative foundations. The legislator and chief dandy was the Prince of Wales, King Edward VIII. He could afford to express original fashion ideas that were celebrated by society as fresh and sophisticated. He introduced fashionistas to the concept of "tired" and sometimes "sloppy" elegance.
Clothing for the Chicago party can be ordered from a tailor or created by yourself. You will also have to go to thrift stores in search of appropriate accessories. Do not forget that such a Sabantuy is comic and you do not need to be too scrupulous in recreating the atmosphere of this particular era. Gentlemen's pocket watches may be out of order, the gramophone may be broken, the pearls may be artificial, and the fur on the ladies' boas may not be natural. The purpose of holding such events can often be entertainment, but not reenactment in any way: it is impossible to accurately revive or at least repeat the past time. We just need to achieve atmospheric, which can be created significantly without inflating the budget of the holiday.

How to decorate a room?

When decorating your home before a themed party, lay out geometric patterns from playing cards, hang gray or frosted balloons. Give the first three men who come to toy Thompson submachine guns, all subsequent men - revolvers. At the time described, there was no ban on smoking, so feel free to offer cigars to everyone, but non-smoking women are simply obliged to keep in their hands mouthpiece, even with an unlit thin long cigarette. Print photos of crime bosses, musicians or artists who lived at that time, but you do not need to put party members on these photos. In the case of computer processing of a picture of a modern person under a gangster, you will spend a lot of effort, and maybe money, while after a photo shoot from a party, you will have a whole thematic album.

You are holding white-black-red Drape the color scheme, window and doorways with heavy curtains, so that in the case of "surveillance of policemen" you can hide the "gangster meeting". Arrange a game zone - in the far corner, arrange a table for playing card games, buy a toy roulette or children's billiards. "Underground Games" should be one of the golden nails of the entertainment program.

Do not forget about a professional photographer who will perpetuate your party in gloss! Professionally taken photographs can take you back not only to yesterday, but also many decades before your birth.

Menu

Although the gangsters are not known as gourmets, do not forget about the treats that will be served at the party. Fits best buffet table, which can be supplemented with Italian dishes: pasta, pizza, lasagna. If the party is non-alcoholic, then simply decorate the cocktails with striped tubes, and if the guests drink alcohol, stop at whiskey, gin or rum.

Which of the participants, in addition to a well-aimed eye, also has dexterous fingers, then wins.

"Criminal Couple"
The game is played by couples. Participants need to be handcuffed to each other (at worst, tie their hands with a rope). We give each couple a bottle of alcoholic drink and a bright ribbon. The meaning of the game is this: the friends of the hero of the occasion (that is, the Godfather) escaped from prison to congratulate the hero of the day. And they have a gift, just need to pack accordingly. The task of criminal friends is to tie a ribbon on the bottle with a bow. With hands tied, the task is quite difficult. As soon as the gift is "packed", it is handed over to the addressee. And the couple that managed the fastest is declared the most skillful.

"Count the gangster common fund."
Gangster party revolves around money. There is money in the bank, whoever determines by eye wins.

"Money smells".
Every decent gangster has a nose for money and the best one will accurately identify the currency blindfolded.

"Secret Spy".
For each of the teams, the host thinks of a certain phrase, which, with the help of gestures, one of the team players must show so that the team guesses as quickly as possible. Quickness and artistry are judged (the winner receives 300 USD, the third place is 200 USD, the rest are 100 USD)

The "Criminal Couple" is the best couple of the gangster party. In a pair, participants are handcuffed to each other (you can simply tie their hands with a rope). Each couple is given a bottle of whiskey (you can also have tea, of course) and a ribbon. The task is to tie a ribbon on the bottle with a bow. When the hands are fastened, it is not so easy to do this. Those who tied should immediately hand over the “gift” to the heroes of the occasion. Whoever is faster wins

Music break. Guests are invited to dance a little. The captains of their teams gather their “gang” and the one that dances more synchronously receives balls (the winner receives 300 USD, the third place is 200 USD, the rest are 100 USD)

"Shoe Makers"
Teams are participating. Each team chooses a captain. Teams sit opposite each other, participants take off one shoe or boot and throw it in the center in one pile. At this time, the captains stand with their backs to the teams. After the teams have taken off their shoes, the captains should put their shoes on their team as soon as possible. The team wins, the first one to be completely shod again. To complicate the task, extra shoes can be thrown into the pile (the winner receives 300 USD, the third place is 200 USD, the rest are 100 USD each)

Teams, having accumulated enough money, can now bargain at the auction and buy certain goods for themselves (all team prizes, sets of all sorts of souvenirs, sweets and cash prizes, etc.).
