Birthday Parties
The goal of our birthday parties is to make an amazing & unforgettable experience for your child's birthday. To schedule a birthday party, please fill out a lead form to arrange a Friday or Saturday evening time. Typically we recommend a 5:30-7:30pm time frame, but on Saturdays we can sometimes arrange earlier based on other commitments that fall on that day. The total cost of our birthday package is $375. We ask for a half-down payment when scheduling, and the remaining half to be paid on the day of the party.
What Makes Our Birthday Parties Extra Special
Kids in an age range of 4-12 are best to consider booking a party! The activities we choose will be appropriately based on your child's age. We want to ensure that most importantly your child has the best party, but that their guests are challenged & having fun as well. Our ability to teach & cater to your audience is what makes our birthday parties most unique!
