Whether you call it Football or you call it Soccer, the FIFA World Cup is a sports event that the whole world can get behind and cheer on your country (or just your favourite team, if they aren’t one and the same).
It’s a given that all Aussies love watching a good sports match and in 2023 it’s time to cheer on the Matildas in the Womens Soccer World Cup. Australia and New Zealand are co-hosting the 2023 Womens World Cup and as a nation, we couldn’t be more excited to bring one of the world’s biggest sport competitions to our home land.
"Fédération Internationale de Football Association." is the French phrase which, translated to English means,
International Federation of Association Football” – understandably this is why it is shortened and most commonly called ‘FIFA’.
This international organisation was founded in 1904 to provide unity amongst all soccer associations. They are responsible for organising and overseeing major international tournaments such as the men’s and women’s FIFA World Cup, as well as various other competitions related to the sport of Soccer.
Hosting a Soccer World Cup viewing party at home can be quite simple, with a few key decorations you can brighten up the space for this year’s Women’s World Cup –because it’s really all about the supporter gear that you wear and the big screen.
If you’re watching the Matildas or the Socceroos at home you will definitely want a few Australian Flags or Aussie Flag bunting to hang up around the space. Hanging bunting banners from the ceiling of the party space is a great way to feel the party atmosphere from every angle.
Australia decorations are most popular in January but at Shindigs we carry them all year round, so regardless of the time of year there will always be Australian decorations available at Shindigs.
If you’re a pub or venue that wants to also include all the international supporters, then you can’t go past an International Flag bunting. Shindigs also carry a wide range of International decorations and tableware perfect for the World Cup.
Looking for another Country to support other than Australia? Look no further than Shindigs, we have plenty of decorations for Germany, America, France, Italy and China. Country waver flags are a great decoration to take to watch the game, they’re light weight and easy to carry. If you can’t find specific decorations for your countries team shop our wide range of Crepe Paper Streamers – using these to decorate your space in your teams colour is always a cost effective way to decorate.
Draw attention to the screen with our Soccer theme Balloon Garland; this DIY garland can be inflated ahead of time and will last for weeks, which make it a perfect decoration for the Soccer world cup as it is played over a whole month. Display it around the top corner of the screen and then after the games use it as a back drop for the perfect team photo. Double it up with a Ginger Ray Soccer Streamers Backdrop decoration, the colours are spot on and the install is even easier.
Soccer Ball decorations are aplenty at Shindigs, from Soccer ball lanterns to Soccer table centrepieces, Soccer Ball balloons and Soccer horn blowers (oh no), you will have your venure decked out to the nines.
Anything and the bigger, the better!!! If you’re supporting the Socceroos or the Matilda’s in the World Cup Soccer games, shop at Shindigs for everything in Green and Gold. From Australian coloured Face paint, to bright coloured wigs, Australian Flag Capes to Aussie Umbrella Hats, Shindigs really does have it all.
If you are looking for something a little more subtle to go with your soccer jersey, Shindigs carry “Go Aussie” badges, Aussie Flag shorts, Australian themed headbands and rubber bracelets.
If you’re headed to any of the games and hoping to get your favourite players signatures, you absolutely need to buy a Soccer Signing Ball, it’s a memento you can cherish forever.
If you’re not at the pub having a shnitty and you’re hosting at home, finger foods are a must!! Think pies, sausage rolls, mini burgers, chicken wings, skewers and meatballs.
If you’re looking for something a little sweeter, you can’t go past cupcakes, popcorn, brownies and lamingtons. Add some extra decoration with Australian Flag toothpicks, or if the Socceroos or Matildas aren’t your team, purchase a pack of international flag toothpicks.
Don’t want to support a particular team and just want to enjoy the game? Just pop a soccer cupcake topper in your food as an extra decoration – we have all the options and solutions for a great soccer watching time.
Shop our wide range of catering supplies, food trays, chip bowls. We even have food display stands and catering boxes so you can take your treats around to your mates place (or take the leftovers home). Don’t forget the Soccer ball plates and soccer themed napkins, they are an absolute must for serving food.
