15 Movie Night Ideas to Jazz Up Your At-Home Viewing Experience
Once you get out of the theater-going habit, you might find it's overrated anyway. There, you get overpriced snacks, dubiously clean floors, and if you’re late, you miss something. Watching movies at home is really where it’s at. In your own home, you can sprawl out in comfort, indulge in a tipple (or two), set up your own snacks — exactly to your tastes and your budget. And you don’t even have to get dressed! Plus, with some strategic tech tools for projection and sound, you can pretty well replicate the good parts of the movie theater experience without leaving the house. Here are 15 at-home movie night ideas you’ll want to try tonight.

11) Viewing Lounge
Better yet, if you have the space and budget, transform your seating concept into a full-on lounge. “When you set up a lounge for at-home movie nights, you’ve got an environment that’s way better than the theater experience, and totally customized, too,” explains Kate Mazzuca, an event designer and producer who’s set up many such viewing lounges through her Los Angeles-based firm Bespoke Boheme. She recommends investing in a throw bed in your choice of colors and patterns. Add in low, chic folding tables for everyone to place — and comfortably reach — their drinks and snacks. And voila! You’ve got a dream of a movie-viewing lounge right at home.
