A roundup of funny slogan ideas perfect for a school festival (1–10)
Don’t screw with me—screw around!
https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Pl6QMAxtc/It’s a slogan that carries the intention to make the school festival a fun space and the desire for everyone to share a lively time together.
While it’s a somewhat complex phrasing that strongly negates people who don’t mess around, it feels like the sound of the words matters more.
By placing words with opposite meanings side by side, the word “fool around” is emphasized even more.
It seems to express a strong will to go all out and have fun, as well as a wish for others to join in and help create an enjoyable atmosphere for everyone.
Your youthful revolution—such a 〇〇 is fantastic.
Do you know the comedian Go☆Jasu? He dresses like the anime space pirate Captain Harlock, with a white-painted face, and he carries a big globe—he’s a solitary, one-man act.
His bit where he says, “No matter the pinch, we can still be saved, still be saved—Madagascar—here! here!” while pointing at Madagascar on the globe makes you burst out laughing even when you know the punchline.
How about parodying Go☆Jasu’s lines like “A revolution in your heart!” and “XXX, fantas☆tic”? Be sure to insert your class name, the name of the school festival, or your school’s name in the XXX part.
Seeking something more important than credits
The school festival is a major event of our youth, and some people devote themselves entirely to making it a success.
This slogan highlights the way we stake everything on the festival and the major sacrifices we’ve made for it.
It suggests that what you gain from the festival is more important than course credits, and it conveys how we even carved out class time to focus on preparations.
It humorously depicts sacrificing things students shouldn’t normally give up, while also emphasizing our strong determination toward the event.
If you give up, it’ll be too late to do anything about it.
Among the many famous lines from the globally popular manga SLAM DUNK is Coach Anzai’s “If you give up, the game is over.” Playing on that phrase, we have “If you give up, you’ll be left with nothing but regrets.” Preparing food stalls is tough, practicing for stage events is exhausting, and nerves and anxiety can pile up.
In moments like that, you might feel like quitting.
But if you give up and stop creating or practicing, it’ll all be too late—you’ll only be left with regret.
This message encourages everyone not to give up until the very end, no matter how hard things get, so we can all enjoy a wonderful school festival.
A cultural festival of ◯◯, by ◯◯, for ◯◯
The phrase “government of the people, by the people, for the people,” advocated by Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States—how about adapting it as a slogan for your school festival? In the blanks, insert words like your school’s name or “students.” This can express that the festival is created through the unity of all students.
Of course, entertaining visitors is important, but it’s also essential that the students who create the festival enjoy it, too.
Why not use this phrase with the spirit of doing it for your own joy as well?
BeReal ~Share Your Youth~
Of course, it’s the app all young people know—BeReal.
I wonder if the younger generation of teachers knows it too.
What’s unique about this app is that instead of calling itself a social media platform, it calls itself a real media platform.
You get a notification once a day at a random time, and you post what you’re really doing at that moment—a share-your-true-self app.
In an era that demands polished, picture-perfect posts, maybe only in your youth can you bare your unfiltered self.
When you think about it that way, doesn’t a gentle sense of comfort slowly wash over you? That’s the slogan, right?
I will become the King of Festivals!
“I’m gonna be King of the Pirates!”—a line made famous by Luffy, the protagonist of the wildly popular TV anime ONE PIECE.
Even if you don’t watch the show, chances are you’ve heard it at least once, especially among younger generations.
For example, something simple like “Festival King” works, or you could look for phrases tied to your school—like the culture festival’s name or words everyone there would instantly recognize.
Finding a phrase unique to your school that will hype everyone up is recommended.
It’s a bold, impactful slogan that conveys a strong determination to enjoy the culture or school festival to the fullest, while still keeping a comedic touch.
