It’s that time of year where I start thinking about what to buy the dads in my life for Father’s Day. I have quite a few men to buy for and this is actually one of my favourite annual occasions to shop for too.

Here are a few Father’s Day gift ideas to give you some inspiration:

Something techy

Techy gifts are always well received and one of our favourites this year is the Creative Sound Blaster GS3. This sound bar delivers crisp and versatile sound and helps to provide a truly immersive viewing experience. Plus, it has a fantastic range of lighting presets allowing you to set the right mood for any occasion. The Sound Blaster GS3 really helps to provide the ultimate movie and gaming experience. A must for any dad this Father’s Day.

Another great choice, especially for the security conscious, is the EZVIZ C3X Dual-Lens Colour Night Vision Security Camera. This outdoor wifi camera has colour night vision and built in AI, using dual lenses and dual infrared lights to render great quality colour images, even in the lowest light conditions. The AI recognises moving people and vehicles, whilst distinguishing those from things like animals or foliage, sending instant alerts to the user when there is a real security risk. It also features a built-in siren and strobe flash light to help deter intruders.

Headphones are always a good option for Father’s Day and the Creative Outlier Free Pro+ headphones are our top choice for a sporty dad this year. With an IPX8 waterproof rating and ten hours of battery life, they are built to withstand all kinds of activities and weather, including swimming and the rain! They also feature a built-in 8GB MP3 player so the wearer can enjoy music streaming without needing a phone or internet access. With a design created for optimal comfort and fit, any dad would love using these headphones on their morning run, at the gym or even whilst doing the gardening!

Another top choice where headphones are concerned are the Mixx StreamBuds Solo 2. Available in a choice of four colours, these earbuds mix a blend of functionality and stylish design, offering up to 18 hours of playtime, hands-free calling, changeable ear cushions and touch sensor controls. They are comfortable and convenient – and only £25! They are great for commuting, travelling or simply for listening to music throughout the day. Featuring a matching magnetic flip top case, they are quick to charge and offer automatic dual pairing that reconnects every time they are taken out of the case.

For something different, why not invest in the OOONO CO-DRIVER NO2? This fantastic gadget takes road safety to the next level, giving your dad a fully connected driving experience. It gives timely traffic warnings covering fixed and mobile cameras, red light cameras, road hazards, and more – all without diverting any focus away from driving. If your dad loves to drive, and always strives to drive as safely as possible, then the OOONO CO-DRIVER NO2 would be a great choice for him.

Something fun

One of our top choices for fun gifts this year would be Father’s Day experience gifts from Giftory. With such a wide range of gift experiences, there is something for every interest and personality. From high speed driving experiences to boat cruises along the coast, a balloon flight, round of golf or a delicious meal in picturesque surroundings, Giftory has a gift for everyone. But, if you’re not sure what to get, why not give a Giftory Gift Card instead?

Escape Rooms are a great activity to do for Father’s Day – and what better than giving the gift of Escape Rooms that your dad can enjoy, with his family or friends, in his own home? Escape Room in a Box is just that gift – and I’m sure it’s something any Dad would love putting his mind to this Father’s Day.

Escape Room in a Box from Epic Escapes bring the adventure right into your living room, offering an escape from the ordinary and a genuine bonding experience too. The set includes three themed games that are both entertaining and challenging, perfect for dads who love puzzles! The games are Hijack, Piracy, and Crime, and they range from easy to hard, ensuring a fun challenge for all skill levels. A great gift this Father’s Day.

For a dad who loves games or testing their brain, Genius Square XL is a fantastic choice. This action-packed puzzle game from Smart Toys and Games invites players to think fast to solve over 60,000 puzzle combinations across five difficulty levels. It’s perfect for playing solo or with an opponent – and something the whole family will love getting involved with!

If your dad loves picking up a new game, then Weird Games will have something for him. How Am I Weird and Anger Smash are great party games that any dad would enjoy playing with friends or family, on Father’s Day and beyond.

How Am I Weird is an award winning party card game for the weird and wonderful! Aimed at age 14+, it’s family friendly, great for teenagers and needs just three or more people to play. It’s all about picking the best comebacks for real life events – less Cards Against Humanity, more Cards Against Normality! It’s fast paced and oh so funny! Plus, it comes in two different deck styles, with a smaller version that is great for travel or a fantastic expansion for the original game.

Anger Smash is a viciously addictive card game! Aimed at age 8+ and for 2-5 players, Anger Smash is a strategic, set-collecting card game of bluff, sabotage and cunning. Players must balance their Anger and Zen to make the perfect hand whilst opponents steal and destroy their cards! Such a great game that even the kids can get angry with!

Something to read

A lovely gift for a new dad would be the Baby Touch Hello Daddy book from Ladybird Books. This is a lovely book that little ones and their dads can enjoy together on Father’s Day and throughout the year. This is the perfect book to inspire cosy moments between dad and baby on their first Father’s Day.

A great gift for any dad that enjoys a walk would be one of the new AA Walking Guides for 2024-25, perfect for an adventurous dad! The series features so many different counties and areas from Devon, Gloucestershire, Hertfordshire and Worcestershire to Oxfordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire, North Yorkshire, and West Yorkshire. The gorgeous books feature full colour maps and full introductions to each walk with information on the local interests areas. They are books that will ensure that your dad experiences all that the countryside has to offer. See the full range here.

Our favourite option for a dad who likes to frequent a new pub or two would be Local Legends: The Hidden Pubs of London. Introducing readers to the world of London’s finest backstreet boozers, these watering holes are brought to life through stunning photography, their idiosyncratic hosts and quirky artefacts. The book would be a great addition to any collection, helping your dad to find somewhere new to enjoy and giving him something fantastic to simply read and appreciate too.

Something practical

It’s always nice to gift something that will be useful, practical and well appreciated. A top choice this Father’s Day would be the Orbit Weighted Blanket from Simba. If you are struggling to sleep, the Orbit relaxes you, using the comforting weight of nano-beads to help guide away restlessness. For a better, deeper sleep all round.

Another practical choice would be the STM Goods BagPack – a collapsible backpack with airbag laptop protection. This is such a unique, innovative gift for any dad. It’s perfect for any day out when he needs an extra, lightweight bag. It features an ingenious inflatable protective laptop airbag that can be inflated when you need to carry a laptop, and deflated and removed when not in use. The whole bag fits neatly into its own front pocket for compact storage when not in use. A great option for any Dad who wants to carry a laptop securely without the bulk of a traditional backpack.

If your dad loves to spend time in the kitchen then they might appreciate an EasiYo Yogurt Maker. Your dad can use the yogurt maker to create so many nice recipes for breakfast, dessert or even as a side to their main – so much more than just plain yogurt. It’s fun, easy to use and super convenient too. A great addition to any kitchen.

Another great gadget for the kitchen is Finamill. This electric pepper mill and spice grinder will help take Dad’s flavours and spices to another level. The easiest way to grind spices, Finamill is operated with just one hand, features interchangeable grinding pods to keep flavours completely separate and lets you swap in and out different spices quickly and easily. It’s one mill but many spices. Find out more here.

A lovely, practical gift for anyone who enjoys a drink would be a ZapCap Bottle Opener from CellarDine by Dexam. This stainless steel bottle opener removes all crown cap bottle tops with a simple push and can be used on both alcoholic and soft drinks. It’s simple to use, fun and looks great too. A really useful gift that any dad would appreciate.

Candles aren’t usually one of the first gifts you’d think of to gift the man in your life but Yankee Candle have a new gift idea that would be lovely for Father’s Day in collaboration with Sharpie. Yankee Candle x Sharpie Create Your Own Candle Label lets anyone design their own candle label for someone they care about. Whether it’s an I heart Dad label for Father’s Day or World’s Best Dad, they’ll be sure to love the finished label – and the candle smells of Clean Cotton too! A really lovely gift.

For a man who loves to spend time in the garden, the Maze Rattan Cotswold Triple Garden Planter Set would make a great gift. Comprising three different size planters, they would look beautiful grouped in a garden or placed individually. The planters are really well made and durable to ensure they can be used and appreciated for years to come. The planters are just one of many gift ideas from Cuckooland, quirky homeware and kids bed specialist.

Something to eat or drink

Wine is always a fantastic choice for Father’s Day and Virgin Wines have a great range of luxurious Father’s Day gifts perfect for the men in your life, delivered direct to their door.

Spirits are another great option on Father’s Day and one of our favourites this year is the Cuvée Koffi from Waterford Distillery, their oldest Whisky to date. Layering together 24 distinct Single Farm Origins, The Waterford – Cuvée Koffi combines natural flavours with Waterford’s terroir-driven philosophy, making it the perfect Father’s Day gift.

If your dad loves a nice cold beer on a sunny day then the Star Wars Stormtrooper Father’s Day Thirst Aid Kit could be a great gift for him. This gorgeous gift set is perfect for any man who says, ‘I am your father’! It features officially licensed Star Wars Stormtrooper merchandise including five beers, snacks, a branded ale glass and four coasters. A must for any Star Wars fan this Father’s Day.

If your Dad prefers non-alcoholic drinks, Cloudy Lemon Lager and Hefeweizen (wheat) beer from Nirvana No and Low-Alcohol Brewery would be a great choice this Father’s Day. These lovely light and refreshing, summer beers are produced by the first-ever brewery in the UK dedicated to crafting no and low-alcohol beers. Your dad is sure to love them.

Another refreshing option would be a mixed case of flavours from Remedy Kombucha. This non-alcoholic drinks choice is both fizzy and refreshing, with flavours that are all sugar-free and great for your gut too! A great alternative to alcoholic drinks, or nice as a mixer, Remedy Kombucha is sure to be enjoyed throughout the spring and summer.

You really cannot beat sweets at any time of the year – and Father’s Day is no different. Swizzels have a great range of sweets for all tastes, from their Sweet Shop Favourites tub that is perfect for sharing, bags of Drumstick Squashies and even their own range of Swizzels Plush Toys that are a really lovely way to show your love this Father’s Day.

I’ve never met anyone that doesn’t love cake and so a box of Lola’s Cupcakes Father’s Day Cupcakes would be a fantastic gift this Father’s Day. So light and delicious, the cakes look great and will arrive at any destination in perfect condition, ready to eat! You can see the full Father’s Day range from Lola’s Cupcakes here.

The set includes three lighthearted gifts designed to help dad chill out in style, as well as a gift bag to pop everything inside. You can see the full Card Factory Father’s Day range here.

Something to wear

Pyjamas are a great choice for Father’s Day and Identity Lingerie have a really lovely range of silk pyjamas in a variety of colours to suit any dad this year. Their mens luxury pyjamas are lightweight, beautifully made and so comfortable to wear. Plus, they also have matching pyjamas for men and women so mum and dad or the whole family can match!

New trainers are always a good choice for Father’s Day and if your dad loves to play tennis then new tennis shoes could be just the thing. The K-Swiss Hypercourt Supreme 2 Mens Tennis Shoes from Tennis HQ not only look fantastic but they also give a secure fit, increased support, and higher durability while still providing maximum comfort. They are designed to give excellent support and drag protection while keeping a flexible feel as you move around the court. A great choice for any dad this Father’s Day.

For an everyday footwear choice for the summer, why not choose some sandals from Shoezone? They have a great range, with styles for everyone and price points to suit all budgets too. We love the Osaga Vista Mens Easy Fasten Sandal, a great, durable and versatile choice for the spring and summer plus a top choice for holidays too. You can see the full Shoezone range here.
