Palm Springs 1950 Event Theme

Palm Springs 1950 – so cool. Known for fun in the sun this period of Americana history and filled with modernist architecture, pool parties and cool yellow umbrellas. Chicks in hip bikinis and cool bands.

There is a sort of “resort” mentality to this theme that forces event planners and guests alike to relax and enjoy.

Palm Springs 1950 – event planning

Whether you are setting up styling for a cool bar, serving yummy cocktails or selecting roving performers to deliver the theme, never take your eye of the ball.

The secret is clothing and styling.

Entertainment has to fit the period. Period! If staff can dress to the theme even better.

When Instinct was approached recently by one of Australia’s larger telecommunication and internet companies, the Palm Springs event theme was on.

It had to feel “pool side” and “resort Like”. That was the client directive.
