A party in the style of passion, a party in retro style, a party in the style of “Secret Desires” - all these components merge together in a holiday called “Moulin Rouge”.
The origins of the name of the famous cabaret “Moulin Rouge” come from the mill created by Leon Villette, the blades of which were painted red, i.e. in fact, this was the “Red Mill” - “Moulin Rouge”. This passionate color symbolized the notorious red light district. The cabaret theater gathered mainly creative individuals, famous writers and artists, representatives of the aristocracy, noble persons. Ordinary middle-class workers also came in to enjoy the performance. Cabaret has gained worldwide fame, so the Moulin Rouge party is a great opportunity to create a piece of France for your friends, even if only for one evening.
Welcoming guests in the best cabaret traditions
Let each guest receive a colorful invitation in the form of an event program, decorated on fragrant paper, decorated with feathers and rhinestones. At the entrance to the restaurant, an attractive girl will check your tickets, treat you to a cigar, and tell you which seat to occupy.
Or you can order a mime - this silent clown will be able to perfectly tune newly arrived guests to the desired wavelength, personally seat everyone at a table, give them a balloon and an air kiss.
Let's look at the cabaret from the inside
It is necessary to think through every detail of the interior in order to replicate as closely as possible at least a small fraction of the luxury that was characteristic of establishments of this type.
So, any room in which it is possible to dim the light a little is suitable. Decoration colors: black, red. It is best to use large pieces of fabric that can easily be used to drape walls and chairs. The surroundings will be added by posters, somewhere already pasted one on top of the other, worn out over time and completely fresh. Paintings by French masters, bouquets of flowers in eye-catching vases, crystal chandeliers - a cabaret atmosphere is guaranteed.
By the way, at the Moulin Rouge no one sat at one large table, so you need to arrange small tables around the hall.
Choosing a chic outfit for the holiday
No matter how chaste a woman may be, no matter how gallant a man may be, the Moulin Rouge party is a reason to throw away all your embarrassment and let your feelings go free for one evening.
Girls should appear in the image of women of easy virtue: cigars, stockings, garters that peek out from under their skirts, corsets, boas. As much glitter and gloss as possible - rhinestones, hats, fans - no modesty. False eyelashes, a lot of powder, pouty lips - with cosmetics the image will be completely completed. A finishing touch A properly chosen hairstyle will give you. By the way, there are no special rules here, the main thing is more jewelry, rhinestones, ribbons, feathers.
Men can try on tuxedos and bow ties instead of the usual ties. Necessary accessories: suspenders, gloves, large rings, canes, hats.
French cuisine « Moulin Rouge»
The French love soup, so you can serve it hot (onion or cheese). From meat dishes It is best to give preference to chicken aged in wine or beef. French cuisine is rich in all sorts of sauces: “Béchamel”, “Poulette”, “Bérnaise” and many others. For dessert you can serve ice cream or chocolate mousse. Don't forget about coffee with milk. Pamper your guests with delicacies: foie gras, truffles, frog legs, oysters. As a drink, high-quality French wine, which so pleasantly sets off the taste of the main dishes.
Cabaret and dancing are two inextricably linked concepts
If it is possible to hire a person who masters the accordion, your holiday will be 50% successful. This instrument is a symbol of France; its gentle romantic motifs will instantly transport everyone present to the country in which the very concept of “cabaret” was born.
Among the music in the recording, attention should be paid to such melodies as Lady Marmalade, compositions by Jacques Offenbach.
Be sure to invite your guests to perform the cancan! And, in addition, you can include in your repertoire all those musical styles that you want to dance to, have fun and love: burlesque, retro, jazz, Latin. Choose according to your taste and heart prompts!
In parallel with the main scenario of the event, an artist can work in the hall to draw portraits or friendly caricatures. In addition, you can invite a magician, a “living statue,” or a skilled bartender.

Moulin Rouge literally means red mill. This is a famous classic cabaret in Paris, built in 1889. The name of the cabaret was given by a wooden mill with red wings, created by decarator Leon-Adolphe Villette. The red color of the wings clearly hinted at the red light district. The Moulin Rouge attracted not only representatives of the middle class, but also aristocrats, people of art (Picasso, Oscar Wilde) and even members of royal families, for example, the Prince of Wales. The main attraction of the establishment was the famous cancan.

Entertainment
Invite a cartoonist street artist for the banquet itself, let him draw all the willing guests. The artist's outfit must be appropriate - a French artist. As a rule, you can negotiate with artists on the street to work inexpensively for 2-3 hours in a warm room.

Announce that a new cabaret has opened, which requires dancers and dancers, so on this holiday there will be a selection of girls and young men for the dance group, but only two will pass the selection, a girl and a young man.
What is the main thing in the life of a cabaret? Of course, cancan. Therefore, girls must show how they can dance this dance. A competition is held for the best dance. Three winners are awarded red roses.
Young people also need to be shown what they are capable of. A dance competition is being held among men to the song "Mani-Mani" from the film "Cabaret". Three winners are awarded a cigar.
Now the presenter calls both girls and boys, winners of previous competitions, then divides them into pairs in random order. A dance competition is held among couples. The winners are awarded a prize.
Dancer's clothes
Girls participate in the competition. For the competition you will need fishnet stockings, corsets, full skirts, long skirts, short miniskirts, blouses, dresses of various styles. All things are laid out on the table. The participants’ task, after the presenter’s signal, is to choose and wear from among all the clothes the one that is suitable for a cabaret dancer.

This game will help you avoid banal competitions.
Shadow theater.
A “screen” and a bright lamp are installed so that guests see only the shadows of those who are behind the screen. To the accompaniment of beautiful music, you can show a pre-prepared scene with the help of guests on a love theme; acted out excerpts from fairy tales, in which different actions are accompanied by different music, turn out to be very funny. Someone works as an announcer - reads the text. Another option: you can show only the action using shadows, and guests will guess what it is. Music in this case should be a clue. For example, love monologues from various famous films, including the unexpected “17 Moments of Spring”, etc. And another option: one of the guests is invited to play a role in the skit, the announcer reads the text of the skit with expression, and the guest actors must portray this in a shadow theater without uttering sounds or words, without any objects (i.e. if in the text it is said about an axe, then the actors must portray it using only their hands).
Extravaganza parody
It can follow after a beautiful dance or even instead of it. They dress the male guest as a cabaret dancer or invite a life-size doll. The costume should be comical, showing off feminine charms (example: Veerka Serduchka). Host: And now dear friends, surprise! We meet a beauty from the heart of France, from Paris... Charming "Miss Erotica"!
Oh cabaret! This word evokes a lot of pleasant associations: alluring debauchery, imperceptibly intertwined with luxury and chic, extravagant outfits and revealing dancing, loud laughter and the viscous aroma of cigars. Quite frank and, at times, even defiant style retains the sophistication and chic of France.
All this can be a great basis for organizing a memorable party, right? eventspro will tell you how to throw a cabaret-style party and not miss a single detail.
Where to gather guests?
The party can be held in a cafe, restaurant, in a cozy cottage outside the city, or even in a hostel. If you know the approximate number of guests, then it will be easier to decide on the premises. Once the main issue of choosing a celebration location has been resolved, you can proceed to further points of organization.
When looking for premises, be sure to consider some points:
- whether or not there will be a show program and what it will be like (for example, the classic cabaret cancan requires a decent size stage, and it’s difficult to imagine it in an apartment...);
- almost obligatory smell of tobacco! What is a cabaret without cigars, and yet in Russia a law has been passed according to which smoking is prohibited in public places;
- almost revealing outfits of the party participants, which may not correspond to the dress code of some establishments;
- and of course the standard things: number of participants, design, territorial convenience.
We invite you in French
France is the birthplace of cabaret and therefore the main decorative elements must be designed in the appropriate style. This also applies to invitation cards. Openwork paper, impregnated subtle aroma perfume, and made in pastel colors retro style is a great option for a simple but stylish invitation. Feathers and rhinestones on the envelope will help declare the luxury of the upcoming event. Do not forget to mention in the body of the letter the need to comply with the dress code.
Dress code for guests
Such a celebration allows you to get creative when choosing outfits, especially for women. You can forget about any complexes and prejudices and surrender to the “cabaret” style. Pay attention to the bright boas made of feathers, tight corsets of various colors, decorated with rhinestones, revealing stockings with suspenders, long gloves on the hands and ostrich feathers in the hair. Skirts – the fuller the better.
Don't forget about makeup! Bright red lipstick, provocative pink blush, arrows on the eyes and sparkle in the eyes are the components ideal image for a cabaret-style party. All that remains is to style your hair with large quantity varnish Hats with feathers and rhinestones would also be appropriate.
For men, the basic rule is elegance in appearance. Black formal tailcoats, tuxedos, bow ties, round top hats. In their hands are cigars, monocles and seemingly carelessly crumpled newspapers.
Let's add sparkle to the interior
The interior of the room in which the event will take place also requires some additions. At the entrance, place a sign with the inscription “Cabaret”, it can be done on thick cardboard or just a sheet of whatman paper, order a wooden sign or painting on fabric (depending on the budget, but most importantly, on the desire of the organizers to do everything to the highest standard or simply indicate the main points of the style ). The walls can be decorated with old posters (specially made for this event, of course).
Use black and red fabrics for draping walls, windows, and furniture. Bright lights are inappropriate in a cabaret; the party should take place in twilight. Flowers in vases, baskets and simply scattered on tables will help refresh the atmosphere of the evening. Preference should be given to red bouquets. There should be a lot of tables, that is, one common table is no longer a cabaret, but many single tables are what you need!
What to serve?
A cabaret-style party is an occasion for guests to enjoy delicacies. Caviar, red fish, foie gras, truffles and expensive champagne will surprise guests. But it’s also not necessary to shell out a large amount of money to buy expensive dishes, especially if there are some financial restrictions. You can get by with the usual light snacks, canapés and fruit. For main course – chicken marinated in wine. Place French baguettes and rolls in small baskets. Sweets should also be present on the table: chocolates, sorbet, cakes, ice cream.
Musical accompaniment of the evening
Of course, no cabaret-style party can do without the famous cancan dance. Be sure to include it in the playlist and you can do it more than once, the participants will be happy to dance again and again. Otherwise, attention should be paid to famous retro hits - familiar melodies can help you relax and have fun so that the party will be remembered for a long time. You can dilute the fun with the gentle lyrical melodies of French chanson.
As an emotional understanding of the cabaret style, eventspro suggests listening to a couple of tracks:
You can entertain guests with the help of competitions, dances and guest actors. Who doesn't know about mimes? For a cabaret party, you can hire several silent clowns (but just remember to warn them about your dress code!), who can greet guests at the entrance and entertain them throughout the evening.
A professional team that will perform the cancan, surprise and entertain the guests, will be an excellent start to the dance competition, and as a result, the best dancer of the evening will be determined.
Unusual entertainment can be obtained if you slightly adapt the well-known “forfeits” to the theme of France. The forfeits themselves need to be collected at the entrance, these can be brooches, gloves, hairpins, and during the party they can be played with the tasks “Dance the cancan”, “Drink a glass of champagne”, “Perform a song in French”.
Today, on-site master classes are very popular, so for a “Cabaret” party you can invite specialists who will teach guests how to make hot chocolate and candies.
A cabaret-style party helps you feel the luxurious atmosphere of the holiday and relax in the best traditions of bohemian France. Enjoy the process of organizing the event, put your soul into every little detail and in the end you will get an unforgettable party that will be remembered for a long time.
