Fire Party were a hardcore band from Washington D.C.. They were together from the autumn of 1986 to the spring of 1990.

They released a six-song self-titled EP, an eight-song album and a complete discography on Dischord Records.

They produced a type of music that could be possilby described as emo (due to their existence and involvement with the other "Revolution Summer" bands Embrace and Rites of Spring). Apart from being an all female band, a rarity in hardcore punk music; drummer Nicky Thomas was also one of the few African American women involved in the hardcore punk music scene.
