With the right lighting, the right atmosphere can be created for any evening celebration in the garden. Whether it's a cosy get-together, beer garden, lounge or dance floor - if you want to buy lighting for your garden party, you'll find a very diverse range on offer. Lanterns, fairy lights and illuminated plants are popular classics for creating a beautiful ambience.
In addition to the atmospheric effect of the lights, safety is also a priority! When buying new lamps, always check the IP protection against the ingress of solids (or dust) and water (rain). The lighting must provide good orientation and prevent tripping hazards such as individual steps from being overlooked. Ideally, the paths to the house and driveway should also be illuminated. There should also be no threat of danger from electrical connections or open fires, especially during parties.
Good Lighting Ideas for Garden Party Lighting
You can create particularly decorative garden party lighting with colourful lanterns, for example. When distributed sensibly, these can provide a sufficiently bright background light in a pavilion or marquee. Round lamps with colourful paper shades are also a popular classic for outdoor garden party lighting. It is very atmospheric to combine electric lamps with candlelight, for example in the form of beautiful tea light holders on the tables.
Lanterns also create a very atmospheric glow. Whether as wall lights, table tamps or hanging lights: with their rustic charm, lanterns create an inviting lighting mood. The modern classics of atmospheric garden party lighting include colourful fairy lights with energy-saving LEDs. Trees, shrubs and flower beds illuminated by mobile outdoor spotlights with ground spikes create a beautiful setting for the garden party.

Energy-saving Garden Party Lighting
LED bulbs have the lowest power consumption of all light bulbs - in direct comparison with Incandescent bulbs, the savings are up to 90 %. The great thing about solar lights is that there are no more electricity costs! However, as their light output is heavily dependent on the weather, it is not possible to guarantee sufficiently bright party lighting in the garden. To ensure that the battery lasts as long as possible, most solar lights contain LEDs.
