party horn
Festive paper trumpet
A party horn is a small noisemaker blown to make a celebratory sound, typically at New Year's Eve parties or birthday celebrations.
The classic design features a paper tube that unrolls when blown, producing a honking or tooting noise.
Also called a blowout or party blower: The kids grabbed party horns and blew them when the clock struck midnight.
