"I love the music they're playing! Do you know who this [artist/song] is by?"

A classic and effective opener, as music is often a central element of a party and a common shared interest.

"(Holding a drink) This [drink] is amazing! Have you tried it?"

A low-risk way to engage, centered around a shared experience at the party.

"Hi, I'm [Your Name]. This party is [great/lively/a lot of fun], isn't it?"

A straightforward and friendly opener that shows you're engaged with the environment and open to conversation.

"(Looking at a piece of art/decoration) Wow, that's really cool. Have you seen anything else like it here?"

If there's something visually interesting at the party, using it as a starting point shows curiosity and engagement.

"That's a really interesting [shirt/watch/accessory]! Where did you get it?"

A genuine compliment on something specific he's wearing can be a great icebreaker and shows you're observant.

"(If there's food) These [appetizers/snacks] are delicious! Have you tried the [specific item]?"

Similar to the drink opener, using food as a common point of interest.

"Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice your [great laugh/interesting conversation]. What were you all talking about?"

A bold but potentially rewarding approach that acknowledges him in a positive way and invites him to share.

"This place is [packed/buzzing] tonight, isn't it? Have you been here before?"

Commenting on the atmosphere and asking a simple question shows you're present and interested in his experience.
