Gender Reveal Trends for 2025: What’s Hot Right Now
Share
If there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s that gender reveals just keep getting bigger, bolder, and more creative every year. Gone are the days of a simple pink or blue balloon pop - 2025 is all about wow-factor moments, modern colour palettes, and next-level photo ops.
Whether you’re a first-time parent or doing this reveal thing like a pro, we’ve rounded up the hottest gender reveal trends for 2025 (and the Celebration HQ products to make them happen).
💨 1. Cinematic Smoke Flares for Picture-Perfect Reveals
The smoke trend isn’t going anywhere - but it’s evolving. In 2025, expect to see coordinated flare moments, with couples lighting two or more smoke flares at once for dramatic, movie-like clouds of colour.
Our Gender Reveal Smoke Flares are perfect for this - easy to hold, vibrant in colour, and completely Insta-worthy. Whether you’re team pink, team blue, or team “let’s just make it epic,” these flares make the big reveal look like something straight out of a music video.

🎊 2. Dual-Effect Reveals - Confetti + Powder Combos
This year’s biggest reveal hack? Combining Confetti Cannons and Powder Cannons for the ultimate double explosion. The combo gives you colour and texture in every frame - confetti for that sparkle and powder for the dreamy cloud effect.
It’s dramatic, fun, and ridiculously photogenic. Plus, all our Celebration HQ cannons are pre-filled and easy to use, so all you need to do is twist, aim, and get ready to scream!

🌸 3. Neutral and Earthy Colour Palettes
Not everyone’s into bright pinks and blues - 2025 is seeing a big rise in boho, neutral, and earthy tones. Think soft beige backdrops, pampas grass, white props, and timber accents.
You can still add your pop of colour when it’s reveal time with our classic cannons or flares, but the setup feels more timeless and elegant. It’s the perfect mix of calm and chaos (in the best way).

💥 4. Interactive Group Reveals
Why let the parents have all the fun? 2025 is about getting everyone involved!
Pass out Gender Reveal Extinguishers to your guests and let them spray together for an unforgettable reveal moment. These fun handheld devices create an epic cloud of coloured smoke - perfect for group countdowns, outdoor setups, and hilarious slow-motion videos.
🎉 Idea: Hand out secret envelopes so no one knows which colour they’ve got until the big 3-2-1!

✨ 5. Sparkler Send-Offs
Once the big reveal is done, it’s time to celebrate in style. Long Burn Sparklers are taking over as the go-to way to wrap up a gender reveal event.
Imagine this: the colour’s been revealed, the crowd’s cheering, and you’re walking through a tunnel of sparklers for that golden-hour glow moment. Magical doesn’t even begin to cover it.

🎨 6. Low-Key & Family-Friendly Reveals
Not everyone wants the loud, sky-high explosion - and that’s okay! If you’re after something more intimate, creative, and totally unique, our Powder Art Gender Reveal Board is the perfect pick.
This interactive design features a lightly adhesive surface that hides a secret artwork underneath. Simply pop on the blindfold, pour both the pink and blue powder over the board, and watch as the colours stick to reveal the hidden message in stunning style.
It’s a gorgeous option for couples who want a slower-paced, meaningful reveal - and it’s an absolute hit with kids who love to get hands-on in the fun.

Let’s be honest - if it’s not on camera, did it even happen?
2025 gender reveals are being planned with social media content in mind. From matching outfits and ring-light setups to drone shots with flares, every moment is made to go viral.
Pro tip: order a few extra cannons or flares to test lighting and camera angles before the real reveal. You’ll thank yourself later.
