The perfect summer party

Summer at last! Time for barbecues, farm parties and outdoor family celebrations. We've put together the best ideas for unforgettable evenings for you.

5 top locations for the perfect summer party

Spring can now officially call itself summer, but let's be honest: it's actually been wearing its swimming trunks for a while now, hasn't it? Reason enough to plan the next barbecues, backyard get-togethers, birthday parties, family celebrations and outdoor beach parties. We have the best ideas for unforgettable evenings with your family and friends.

Green rocks: The garden party

If you have a garden, what could be nicer than inviting friends and acquaintances over for a meal under fruit trees in the countryside while the children run around and the wind cools your warm summer skin? The sun jar is a wonderful addition to your table decorations if you decorate it seasonally and fill it with your own ideas. You can find lots of inspiration here.

Just hang out: Rooftop barbecue

Someone always knows someone who knows someone who lives on a rooftop or has a roof terrace. And because the view from the top is always so marvellous and you can let your thoughts wander so wonderfully, the best place to celebrate is high above the city. So it's time for a nice evening with good friends, cool drinks and good conversation - while the noise of the city fades below you and the sky turns from blue to red.

Very cool: A day on the water

Those who can no longer stand the summer temperatures in the city are drawn to the water. Whether it's a beach bar by the river or a beach party by the lake, the main thing is to cool off! And the best way to round off the evening is with a small barbecue. It can be classic, vegetarian, sweet or with exciting recipes from the home of the solar glass lantern: South Africa.

For nature lovers: The Landpartie

Is your neighbourhood overflowing? City visitors, parades, full parks and playgrounds? Then grab your nearest and dearest, pack your picnic basket and head for the countryside. Whether by bike, car or train - it's not a question of how, just when. Green landscapes, cornfields in the wind, undiscovered lakes, balmy evenings in beer gardens and walks through enchanted forests await you. And if you're planning a really big party, you'll find great locations for an unforgettable celebration here. What are you waiting for?

The classic: the farmyard party

Summertime is perfect for small parties in shady backyards. Get to know your neighbours from a completely different angle or even get to know them if you've never really said hello to each other before. A few beer benches, salads and cool drinks will bring you closer together and strengthen your sense of togetherness. If you need a little help with the organisation, you can find good tips online to make your party preparations as relaxed as possible.

It doesn't take much for a good party: good friends, nice light and drinks

The sunglass is also a unique companion for your adventures and when travelling. In our blog post 7 perfect places for your summer with the sunglass you will find exciting locations and spots for unforgettable moments.
