home parties
Residential hosted events
Home parties are social gatherings hosted in a private residence, often organized around selling products like cosmetics, kitchenware, or jewelry: She sells candles through home parties.
The format—pioneered by Tupperware—combines socializing with sales pitches, leveraging friendships to move merchandise.
The term also covers non-commercial gatherings: casual get-togethers as opposed to events at rented venues.
