70th Birthday Celebration Ideas for Dad That Are Bold, Fun, and Flavor-Packed
Seventy years. That’s 25,550 days of dad wisdom, classic jokes, backyard grill mastery, and unmatched advice. When your old man hits the big 7-0, it deserves more than cake and a card—it deserves a celebration as legendary as he is.
Whether he’s the king of chill or the backyard hero, here are unforgettable 70th birthday ideas that deliver bold flavor and lasting memories.
1. Kick Off With a Backyard BBQ Bash
Let Dad take his throne—tongs in one hand, cold one in the other. Fire up the grill, invite his crew, and make it a true feast. Want to surprise him? Gift him the Grand Carnivore Gift Set, packed with jerky, meat sticks, and enough protein to power a proper party.
2. Host a Man Cave Movie Marathon
Turn the living room into his own private cinema. Queue up his favorite classics—“Dirty Harry,” “Die Hard,” maybe a western or two—and stock the table with snacks. The Meats + Sweets Gift Set brings the perfect balance of savory jerky and rich treats for all-night viewing comfort.
3. Gift Him a Bouquet... of Bacon
Real men deserve real bouquets. The Bacon Bouquet is made of gourmet strips, perfectly wrapped for snacking and laughing. It’s hilarious, it’s delicious—it’s Dad-approved.
4. Sip and Savor With a Whiskey Tasting
Line up his favorite bottles for a chill at-home whiskey tasting. Add in the Whiskey Caramel Decanter—filled with caramels infused with single malt scotch—for a classy (and tasty) finishing touch.
5. Hit the Road: Dad-Style Day Trip
Take him somewhere he’s always wanted to go—a historic battlefield, a scenic lake, or a classic diner road trip. Pack The Best Jerky Gift Box for the ride and keep the laughs and snacks flowing from start to finish.
6. Surprise Him With the MOTHERLOAD
Turn 70 into a snack milestone with the MOTHERLOAD—a mega gift box with 15 bags of handcrafted jerky. It’s big, bold, and guaranteed to get a fist pump (and maybe a few happy tears).
7. Toast to 70 With a DIY Pub Night
Can’t take him out? Bring the pub home. Set up his favorite beers, play his favorite records, and decorate with bar signs or coasters. Pair the vibe with the Master Brewer Snack Box, packed with ale-infused jerky and beer cheese pretzels.
Here’s to 70 Years of Dad Being Dad
No matter how you celebrate—whether it’s with bacon bouquets, backyard laughs, or a gift that makes him shake his head and smile—you’re not just recognizing a birthday.
You’re honoring seven decades of being the guy who always shows up, always knows what to say, and somehow still makes “dad jokes” work.
Celebrate him right with a gift from Manly Man Co.. Make it unforgettable, snack-worthy, and brag-worthy—because nobody else could’ve pulled off “Dad” quite like he has.
