School PTO Dance Theme Ideas
School dances are great PTO fundraisers and are fun for students & staff. Looking for some fun dance theme ideas for your community center or organization? Keep reading to see what to look for in your dance invitations, flyers, posters and tickets. Browse through our suggestions for the best school dance theme ideas.
How to Pick the Best Dance Flyers Templates
Planning any event can be stressful and requires planning and organization. Make your life simpler by picking an editable template for your school PTO PTA or PTC dance flyers that have space for your information. Some bundles even include traditional 5x7 invitations and extras like social media templates, tickets and half sheet take home flyers to get pre-sales on your tickets.
Consider whether you plan to post your event on social media. If so, try to pick a template that includes a social template that works for your event and organization.
The most obvious things to look for are templates that have space for your date, time, and details. Do you want to add detailed information like parking info or a dinner menu? If so, look for a dance invitation template that has as much editable space as possible.
PRO TIP: Watch out for editable flyer & ticket templates that have a limit on the number of downloads you can get! The reality is, despite your best effort, details change. Having to pay more to download your edited templates when that happens is a waste of money. Plus, who doesn't want to recycle amazing flyers and printables in the future without having to purchase them again!
Tickets for Your School Dance
Tickets are a great way to ensure that everyone attending your daddy daughter dance, mom and me, or holiday themed dance have a keepsake from your big event. Bonus ~ you have an easy way to identify those who have purchased dance tickets and those who haven't.
You can sell the tickets early for a discounted price and increase the price at the door. From a busy event coordinator perspective it's a win-win. You have a better idea of pre-sale quantity and you can make a little extra for the folks that purchase tickets upon entry.
Fun and Original Dance Theme Ideas
There are so many unique themes that you can choose from for your school dance. Whether you are planning a holiday dance, Daddy-Daughter Dance, Fall Festival or period dance theme like a decade dance or country western the options are endless.
Here are some of my favorite editable dance flyer bundles for your school or community center dance.
Period Dance Themes
The popularity and timelessness of period themed dances make them a great option for your School PTO fundraising event!

This fun 80s decade dance theme is all about the retro, bright colors and skating that 1980's were known for. One of my favorite things about this particular dance set is that it's 100% editable! Yep, even the graphics can be moved if you want or need to make more space.

This theme adorable with fireflies, mason jar lights, string lights, western boots and horseshoes with a barn wood background.

Have Fun With Dance Theme Ideas
As you plan your dance, whether it's for your school PTO, PTA or community center just have fun with it. There is always room for a little dancing in everyone's life.
Choose a DJ or prepare a playlist ahead of time for your event. Be sure to include lots of upbeat music to get people moving. Place your slow dances strategically in your playlist!
Don't forget to be sure to have plenty of water available for your guests. It's exhausting when everyone is having a great time!
Whatever you do, have fun and enjoy the party!
