How to host a bonfire party?

Question

What would you neede to host a bonfire party. Besides the music, food, and people. Theres a park behind my house and we could always go there. Are there any fun games or anything to do. How long should it be? I think 3 hours?What could we do to make the night go on?

Answer 1

Tiki torches around the fire pit are necessary in my neck of the woods or you will get picked up and carried away by the mosquitoes!!!  Have OFF or Skintastic Bug spray available for people to use.  Also, even though it is adults, my friends and family still get a kick out of doing S'mores for desert or hot digs over the flames.  Have some music playing and a party game that requires no table or cards such as Catchphrase or Guesstures (my family's faves!).  Have fun!

Answer 2

need a light?

Answer 3

I'd recommend buckets of sand or a garden hose as part of fire safety.
