Cyberpunk is a super cool futuristic style known for its bright neon lights and flashy technology – which makes it a flashy and fun choice for a party. We’ve put together 12 cool cyberpunk party ideas to get yours off to its best start.

On our list, look out for some of the Peerspace listings we’ve included that’ll elevate your party to the next level. Peerspace is the largest online marketplace for hourly venue rentals and makes it easy to discover and book sensational venues for all your needs. Yes, that includes cyberpunk-worthy spaces, as you’ll soon see! So start bumping some techno and let’s get going!

1. Send a futuristic digital invite to get your crowd pumped

Looking for cyberpunk party ideas to set your party off on the right foot? We recommend sending out a proper invite that spells out the theme for your guest. An invite like this neon birthday party invitation from A Three Designs on Etsy could easily be repurposed for a cyberpunk gathering. To really hammer home the theme, send the invite digitally!

2. Book a neon-soaked event venue through Peerspace

The best way to keep your party authentic and immersive is to host it in a space that’s complimentary to the theme. Luckily, Peerspace connects you to amazing party venue options all over the country that would be perfect for a cyberpunk party.

One of our favorites is Drip Studios Vapor Wave Loft in Los Angeles, CA. It is a 1,500-square-foot production studio that you can book for your private event and includes color-changing lights that you can control through an app. Note that if your party falls on the weekend, you must also book the host’s adjoining REDTROFUTURE venue, which is also cyberpunk-party perfect!

3. See the future through light-up goggles

There are so many fun outfits and accessories you can pick out when you’re planning a cyberpunk party. One of the coolest cyberpunk party ideas we’ve seen is these futuristic fashion goggles from Yuweei’s Etsy page. They are handmade, non-polarized, mirror-coated, and Matrix-inspired. What else do you need to know?!

Ask your guests to wear futuristic clothes and accessories to your cyberpunk party, too. You can even host a costume contest if you want, with the best-dressed cyberpunk of you all winning a digital download of Cyberpunk 2077, the Blade Runner movies, and other cyberpunk merch.

4. Go wild with reactive tape

Anybody planning a cyberpunk party should get their hands on some reactive tape. The brightly colored decoration can easily be put on any surface to turn it into another neon light. On Amazon, you can find entire neon party supply packs that have all the tape, garlands, and hanging decorations you’ll need to set the stage.

If you want to save yourself some time and hassle, simply book Kosmo Room in Las Vegas, NV through Peerspace! This gorgeous black light reactive space is ideal for small gatherings of up to 16 guests yet will surely leave a huge impact on whoever crosses its doorstep.

5. Serve up some delicious ramen

Cyberpunk has always taken a massive influence from Japanese culture. In movies like “Blade Runner” that popularized the aesthetic and others, you’ll see characters slurping down a delicious bowl of ramen. The creators of the recent hit game “Cyberpunk 2077” actually released a recipe for ramen in anticipation of the tie-in series! Serve some of this up at your party or some instant ramen for a real crowd-pleasing dish.

6. Cut loose and host an amazing cyber dance party

Techno music should definitely be the soundtrack for your cyberpunk party. If you really want to get into the music, why not throw a dance party? With Peerspace, you’ll get access to some incredible spots like this dope art house with a festival-style backyard in Los Angeles, CA. The host designed the backyard (pictured above) to replicate an EDM rave with lasers, neon couches, a smoke machine, a bubble machine, string lights, fluorescent lights, and so much more, all perfect for a cyber rave.

“This Venue is fricking amazing,” shares a Peerspace user after booking this venue for an event. “It has an insane amount of space and decoration. The host was extremely cool and accommodating. I recommend booking a day into night experience as you will see the whole venue come to life. Defined booking again”

7. Make a personalized neon sign to welcome your guests

Are you on the hunt for cyberpunk party ideas that you can put up in your own home after the event? It’s never been easier to make your own custom neon sign with whatever text or font you want. On Etsy, you can find options with a fast turnaround time like this custom neon family name from Neon Artisans! Just imagine what a cool conversation piece this would be sitting in a living room or den.

8. Brew a galactic cocktail that plays to the theme

You’ll want your bar or drink menu to reflect the theme, that means colorful drinks that exceed your guests’ expectations. One of the coolest we’ve seen is the Moscow Mule Galaxy Cocktail from Gastronom Cocktails. The secret to the color changing is an ingredient called Butterfly Pea Flower – so cool!

9. Keep your guests fueled with sweet treats

We’ve figured out some great ideas for food and drink, but what about dessert? Try these glow party neon party favors from Party Time Chocolates on Etsy. They’ve got Rice Krispies, pretzels, Oreos, and more – everything you’ll need to get you through a night in the future!

And another fun element to your cyberpunk party by incorporating some of these Alice in Wonderland party ideas!

10. Play VR games

Virtual reality is another staple of the cyberpunk genre. By having some VR games at your party you can really get your guests immersed into the vibe. Peerspace has some great options like this virtual reality arcade and bar in Providence, RI that also has VR and gaming setups included in the rental. One of the coolest aspects is all of the screens that can be customized for your party!

11. Eat off glow-in-the-dark cutlery

Looking for other subtle ways you can play up on the cyberpunk theme? Try this set of neon cutlery from Directglow’s Etsy page. Imagine how cool these will look when you’re slurping down on that cyberpunk ramen!

12. Mark the occasion with a photo booth

Having a photo booth is always a crowd-pleaser. Your guests will be so appreciative to have an opportunity to take pictures in their outfits and be able to take home a classic memento. On Peerspace, you’ll find listings all over the country where a photo booth is either included in the price of the rental or easily added on.

For a space where you have both a great cyberpunk theme and photo booth included, check out this retro glam-inspired private lounge in Brooklyn! Here’s some feedback from a user who hosted a party in this space: “I had a wonderful experience booking with Kayla and her team. They were very efficient, quick, responsive, and resourceful. I hosted my boyfriend’s 23rd Birthday party there and it was absolutely perfect. The space is exactly as advertised, if not better. My boyfriend and guests had a fantastic time. Thank you so much Kayla!”
