Milestone birthdays come once in a lifetime, so it’s important to celebrate and treasure these moments when they arrive. You want to look back at them fondly when the next one comes. There are various ways to celebrate milestone birthdays, and depending on what age is marking the milestone there’s an idea out there that’s perfect for every occasion.
1- Charter a Boat
Milestone birthdays are a big deal, so why not go big when celebrating them? Chartering a boat can be pricey, but traveling to tropical destinations in luxury with your friends and family will be an event people will talk about for years. If chartering a boat is just too much, you can always book a cruise and get a similar experience.
2- Book a Rage Room
Some milestone birthdays can be stressful. Think the big four-zero. If the person celebrating their birthday is less than enthusiastic about getting older, a rage room birthday might be right up their alley. They can enter a room with a weapon of their choice and take their stress out on glass objects, cars, office equipment, and more. Sometimes when people turn forty or fifty, they just want something to break.
3- Let Your Hair Down in Las Vegas
Las Vegas is a wildly popular destination frequented regularly by people around the globe. Between concerts, magic shows, professional sports games, or a weekend of reckless gambling, Las Vegas hosts milestone activities for both early milestones and the latter ones.
4- Throw a Decade Themed Party
A great way to celebrate someone’s milestone birthday is by hosting a decade-themed party based on the decade they were born. Throw a wild neon 80’s party, or a 90’s party that takes the birthday person back to their youth. Get everyone to dress up like they’re going out to the club in that decade and party like it’s 1999.
5- Embrace Nature in a National Park
Nature lovers may appreciate celebrating a milestone birthday surrounded by the natural beauty of a national park. You don’t necessarily have to commit to a weekend of tent camping if that’s not your thing. Many national parks today have modern facilities and guided tours for those who aren’t as comfortable roughing it in the wilderness.
6- Check Things Off the Bucket List
Nothing celebrates a milestone birthday, especially the later ones, like knocking a few things off your bucket list. Throw a bucket list birthday party and go skydiving, climb a mountain, or travel to a foreign country. A milestone birthday is the perfect opportunity to experience something new for the first time.
7- The Classic Pub Crawl
For younger milestones, like twenty-one or thirsty thirty, get the crew together and go on an old-fashioned pub crawl. Purchase a few t-shirts with a themed design that celebrates the birthday person and have a wild night out on the town.
8- Celebrate Someone’s Impact with a Scrapbook Party
The older we get, the more milestone birthdays become times when we remember. We think back on all those years gone by and focus on the impact we’ve had on those around us. Celebrate a milestone by highlighting someone’s special moments and achievements in the form of a scrapbook. It’s a birthday celebration with a very personal touch that truly celebrates the life of someone who had a special impact on you.
