Keep the movie magic rolling after the credits with take-home surprises made for their next cosy night in!
From snuggly movie blankets and popcorn-inspired accessories to DIY movie-night kits and glitzy VIP goodies, these movie party favours are packed with blockbuster fun. Whether you’re looking for a simple take-home treat or a show-stopping movie star surprise, there’s an idea to suit every party style and budget.
1. The Popcorn Drop
A cute and cosy popcorn combo!
Fill a popcorn tote bag with cosy popcorn socks and an adorable popcorn plush for a cute take-home treat. With everything tucked neatly inside the matching tote, it’s an easy way to bundle a few movie-night favourites into one fun party favour.
Why it works:
It’s cute, cosy and easy to put together! Kids get a mix of movie-themed goodies they can wear, cuddle and use at home, while the popcorn theme ties everything together.
💡 Tip: Want to make it extra cosy? Add an oversized movie-themed sleep tee to turn this popcorn bundle into the ultimate movie-night favour.
2. The Cosy Edit
Wrap up the movie magic!
Give kids something extra snuggly to take home with a clapperboard-themed blanket tucked inside a matching movie tote bag. Add a personalised movie-themed thank-you card or name tag to turn this cosy combo into a special keepsake.
Why it works:
It’s cosy, practical and made for plenty of movie nights to come. Kids can use their blanket for sleepovers, family movie nights or curling up on the couch for their next favourite film.
💡 Tip: Want to go all out? Personalise each child’s blanket with their name for an extra-special movie night keepsake.
3. The Popcorn Purse
Serve up some seriously poppin’ style!
Swap the traditional party bag for a popcorn-inspired handbag kids can carry home after the party. With its red-and-white stripes and playful popcorn design, it’s a fun movie-themed accessory they can use long after the credits roll.
Why it works:
It’s playful, practical and a little unexpected! Kids get a fun accessory they can actually use, while the popcorn design fits perfectly with the movie-night theme.
💡 Tip: For an extra treat, tuck a small surprise inside, such as a lip gloss, hair accessory or movie-themed keychain.
4. The Big Night In
Pack up another movie night to enjoy at home!
Turn your party favour into a mini movie-night kit filled with everything kids need for another cosy night in. Buy one ready-made or create your own with microwave popcorn, popcorn containers, flavoured popcorn salt and caramels, then package everything together for an easy take-home treat.
Why it works:
It’s simple, fun and gives kids another movie night to look forward to! The kit is easy to put together and can be customised with different popcorn flavours and treats to suit your budget.
💡 Tip: Add a personalised movie-themed thank-you card or name tag to give your popcorn kit a VIP touch.
5. The Gold Class VIP Kit
Give your movie stars the VIP treatment!
Turn up the glamour with a movie star kit made for dressing up, singing along and striking a pose. Fill each favour with a karaoke microphone, party hat, oversized glasses, bead necklaces, a shiny bow tie and fluffy feather boa, all decked out in dazzling gold.
Why it works:
This one doubles as a party favour and entertainment! Kids can use their accessories for photos, karaoke or movie-star fun during the party before taking the whole VIP collection home afterwards.
💡 Tip: Place each set inside a gold or black bag and and add a movie-themed thank-you card to complete the star treatment.
