15 Inspired Outdoor Birthday Party Ideas for Adults

Today we want to share with you something special:

Outdoor Birthday Party Ideas

Outdoor birthdays are ideal when the weather is perfect. If you pick one of the best outdoor birthday party ideas and send out your invitations with some free time, you can get everyone together for a day or night together outside.

And what is better than sunbathing with all your favorite people while you blow out the candles and make your wish for next year?

You should choose your theme based on your preferences and audience (some are geared towards more adventurous types, others are more suitable for the family, you can). Below, check out 15 outdoor birthday ideas we're considering for our special day to inspire your get-togethers.

Old Hollywood Movie Night Party

Find a nearby drive-in or recreate one in your backyard with blankets, a large screen, and bright ceiling lights to set the mood.

Don't forget a popcorn bar with lots of sweet and savory toppings (or rent a popcorn truck for the night). You can vote in advance to see which Old Hollywood movie your contestants want to see, or since it's your birthday, you can make your choice, from the Indiana Jones adventure starring a young Harrison Ford to The Graduate, fun and iconic movie.

The Extras: vintage popcorn boxes, Oscar statues for decoration, a red carpet and "paparazzi" and guest costumes.

Relay Race Fête

Remember those family picnics you probably had as a kid, either with your family or at your parents' office? If you like games and fun, organized activities like tossing water balloons, tug of war, and running a sack of potatoes can be a lot of fun. Also, we like this idea to allow kids to get involved too.

The Extras: team jerseys, prizes for overall winners, and a snow cone.

Dinner Alfresco Get-Together

There is something very relaxing about eating together under the stars. Plus, staying home instead of eating at a restaurant means there's no rush to leave immediately after dessert.

To plan, consider providing enough ice cubes, large cutting boards, and trays for meat and other snacks and napkins. Or think about organizing your event so that you can sit back and enjoy it from start to finish with your guests.

The Extras: a cocktail (perhaps with a signature cocktail named after the birthday boy), a beautiful floral centerpiece, and designated seating.

A Birthday Yoga Retreat

For the person who wants to embrace her spirituality on her special day, why not ask all her friends to go on an outdoor yoga retreat? Whether at your home, on the beach, or even on one of those extended yoga trips you can plan, it will tie your om.

Remember: be sure to hire a yoga instructor or choose a retreat that meets different levels of experience so no one feels left out. With the use of accessories such as yoga pads, straps, and pillows, almost anyone can practice yoga.

The Extras: a combination of workout tops (such as Beyond Yoga or selection of soft avocado butter), preparation of fruit-infused water, and time in the sauna.

Off to the (Horse) Races

If you are celebrating a birthday in the middle of the year, summer is usually home to many horse races. And even if you've never hiked one before, it's definitely fun to put on your coolest clothes and see those beautiful and powerful creatures running around.

And did we mention that you can bet on the event and drink champagne all the time? If you want to splurge, why not go out of your way and get yourself a private box so you can enjoy the VIP experience?

The Extras: umbrellas, pastel costumes with floral motifs, and paper fans to mitigate the heat.

Vineyard Hopping Soirée

If you love wine, following a trail through the vineyards with your best friends can be a fun adventure (just make sure you have a designated driver).

Target up to three vineyards to avoid tiring everyone out (or getting too drunk). Make sure at least one stop has a fun lunch option or be sure to pack your own food between stops.

The extras: tastings (with prior reservation) and a limousine, or book a car tour where you can get on and off the vehicle while accompanying your group to the different wineries.

Flower Crown Party

Craft with seasonal flowers to create a usable work of art. Host a nature-themed party, where you collect and make flower garlands of a variety of varieties.

Organizing the event on a patio is ideal, but a balcony (sheltered or not) or a roof terrace will solve the problem in urban settings.

The Extras: an all-white dress code, iced tea, and seating cushions.

Crawfish Boil Celebration

Look south for a laid-back and relaxing way to celebrate. Boiling shrimp is truly a sight to behold, like seafood, potatoes, corn on the cob, and the like all cook to perfection in a large pot outdoors.

Family and friends eat family style and with their hands - clutter is one of the best ways to get people talking (and laughing). Remember to have plenty of napkins and clothes on hand.

The Extras: alcoholic popsicles for dessert and Cajun lemonade.

A Night of Stargazing

Celebrate your next birthday by organizing an evening under the stars to admire the constellations together. Set the scene by putting the blankets on the floor and getting everyone to calm down before dark.

Give each guest a laser pointer so they can show others exactly what they are seeing in the night sky.

The goodies: rent a group of telescopes and serve cocktails named after the constellations. For the best nightlife experience, find a dark sky community near you or plan a trip to one of them.

Bonfire BBQ Birthday

Make your camping days like a campfire (or campfire if you have your own backyard party). A DIY s'mores bar lets everyone fill their treats with all of their favorite toppings before gathering them in the middle of crunchy cookies.

Settle in with live music, courtesy of that guitarist friend (or just a low-key playlist) as you sit around the roaring fire.

The Extras: hot dogs cooked for dinner and cozy blankets to sit on.

Low-Key Beach Day

Pack a cooler bag with your favorite drinks and snacks and celebrate by spending a sunny afternoon at the beach, river, or lake.

Soak up the sun, play Frisbee, and if your recreation area allows it, bring your dogs for fun. Coordinate with the group and designate who will bring what: beach chairs, towels, umbrella, sunscreen, and portable speaker to get started.

The Extras: a portable hot food grill, if your leisure space allows it.

Rooftop Patio Brunch

Elevate your brunch collection ... literally! Book your next birthday party at a restaurant with stunning views. Consider hotel restaurants, breweries, and pop-ups in a great location near you.

Remember to make a reservation if you are a group of more than four or five people.

The Extras: Look for special touches like a campfire, free blankets, and live music to enhance the brunch experience.

Open-Air Performance Bash

Look in your local newspaper or city magazine for live shows of interest outdoors. Whether it's a live band, symphony, or cabaret show, choose an outdoor show.

The Extras: Consider using the VIP seats, which may have a better view of the show, food and drink, and more comfortable seating.

Hiking Fun

Choose a path that you wanted to take and conquer with your loved one or best friends. Remember to stay on the marked trail or, for more challenging hikes, choose to hire a guide. Then continue the party outside with brunch on a deck or patio.

The Extras: bring or rent a GoPro to capture your adventure or a wide-angle lens for your smartphone to capture a group selfie.

Splash-Worthy Pool Party

If time permits, take birthday night to the pool; whether they meet at your apartment pool, someone's backyard, or make a reservation at your community pool. Hotels also rent poolside cabanas for the day, and you usually don't have to be a guest to do so.

The Extras: a portable speaker for birthday jellies and fresh fruit for a refreshing snack.
