When it comes to planning an event, the right theme can transform a simple gathering into an unforgettable experience. Whether you’re hosting a corporate party, private celebration, or large-scale gala, a creative theme brings your vision to life. Add professional bar hire into the mix, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for a night your guests will be talking about for years to come.
At Ace Bar Events, we bring your chosen theme to life with bespoke bar setups, cocktails crafted to match your aesthetic, and experienced bartenders who know how to keep the atmosphere flowing.
Here are some of the most popular event themes — and how a stylish bar can elevate each one:
✨ Winter Wonderland
A Winter Wonderland is all about elegance and enchantment. Think sparkling white décor, frosted branches, twinkling fairy lights and snowy accents. A bar dressed in white and silver can serve seasonal cocktails like spiced martinis, mulled wine, or even snowflake-themed mocktails to set the mood.
Bar hire tip: A mirrored or LED-lit bar will add that magical winter shimmer.
🥂 Gatsby Glamour
Transport your guests straight into the roaring 1920s with a Gatsby-themed party. Black and gold décor, feathers, pearls, and jazz music set the stage for pure luxury. Our bartenders can serve up classic cocktails like Martinis, French 75s, or Old Fashioneds for that authentic Prohibition-era vibe.
Bar hire tip: A black and gold art deco bar creates a stunning centrepiece that fits perfectly with the theme.
🌙 Arabian Nights
For a truly immersive experience, an Arabian Nights theme brings rich jewel tones, lanterns, flowing fabrics, and exotic fragrances. Pair the décor with spiced cocktails, mocktails, or themed drinks like rosewater spritzers.
Bar hire tip: A draped, low-lit bar space with golden accents completes the exotic atmosphere.
🎪 Circus Extravaganza
Step right up to a Circus-themed event that’s full of fun and colour. Bold stripes, vintage signage, popcorn stations, and carnival games make for a playful night. A circus bar can serve vibrant, whimsical cocktails and mocktails inspired by the big top.
Bar hire tip: A red-and-white striped bar instantly creates a focal point and ties the whole look together.
🎭 Masquerade Ball
Elegant, mysterious, and dramatic — a Masquerade theme invites guests to dress to impress. Deep, rich colours like burgundy and black with touches of gold create the perfect setting. Serve sparkling champagne or dark, sultry cocktails to complement the sophisticated vibe.
Bar hire tip: A sleek, dark bar with soft lighting adds to the intrigue and glamour.
🎬 Hollywood Glam
Roll out the red carpet! A Hollywood-themed event brings movie magic to life. Think gold accents, red velvet ropes, star-studded backdrops, and photo ops. Our mixologists can create themed cocktails inspired by iconic stars and films.
Bar hire tip: A glamorous gold or mirrored bar makes guests feel like A-listers.
