Easter celebrations don’t have to be just for little ones! As teens outgrow traditional Easter activities, it’s time to reimagine this spring holiday with an exciting twist they’ll actually want to participate in. Enter the Glow in the Dark Easter Party—where tradition meets teen-approved fun in an electrifying atmosphere that will light up their social media feeds. This modern take on an Easter celebration brings a fresh energy that bridges the gap between childhood nostalgia and teenage coolness. Read on to see how I set it all up!
P.S. I got most of my supplies for this party at Oriental Trading. You can find many of them on my LTK post!
How to Set up a Fun Glow in the Dark Easter Party for Teens
Glowing Decór
When it comes to décor for this party, glow-in-the-dark and neon are the way to go! Neon will glow under black lights, which I set up in the party area for when the sun went down. I used glow in the dark paint to create an Easter-themed “Glow and Find Them” sign. Then, I added glow stick balls and neon circle garlands to create a bright and cheerful backdrop for the party.
I also added a neon balloon garland to the party area. Balloons are always a good way to make a big impact, especially if they glow!
Glow Up Station
Part of the fun of this Easter celebration is getting to wear some glowing accessories! I set up a table for the teens to “Get a Glow Up” with glow stick bracelets and necklaces, glasses, and glowing rings.

Table Setting
The glow in the dark and neon table was one of my favorite parts to set up. I just love how it turned out!
I used neon slinkies, glow stick balls, glowing Easter eggs, and mini neon bunnies down the center of the table to create a glowing “runner”.
Transparent neon plates, bowls, cups, and cups were the perfect tableware for this glow in the dark party. Adding a neon napkin and a glow stick ring to the place settings created the perfect light-up look to the table.
Each place setting also got a fun fiber-optic light up wand – a cool party favor teens will love. In the center of the place settings, I added a candy bunny bracelet as well.

Snacks and Drinks
In addition to a pizza dinner, I kept the teens hydrated, energized, and ready for egg-hunting with water in neon cups and snacks in easy-to-grab neon snack boxes.
Glow in the Dark Easter Egg Hunt
Once the sun goes down, it’s time for the glowing easter egg hunt! I set up a “Hop to it!” table with neon Easter buckets to collect eggs in. This table also held lots more neon trinkets for fun take-home party favors for the teens.
