If they get hungry, there’s a concession stand with all kid-friendly treats.

-
Churches and historic attractions also offer birthday parties and packages that cover everything from cakes and décor to games and entertainment. They may not be the first party place that comes to mind, but the one-of-a-kind experiences they provide make them a welcome surprise for a memorable get-together for smaller groups.

Private events don’t always have to take place indoors. If your birthday kid loves nature and a bit of adventure, you can’t go wrong with an outdoor space with a pond and expansive lawns for them to swim and run around.

What Kind of Venue Can I Rent for a Children's Party?
Are you ready to ditch your house’s living room for a nice change of scenery and take your kid’s party somewhere else? Whatever their personalities, styles, and interests, you'll find the ideal backdrop for all the adventures.
-
Local Parks – Play Time is Party Time. Enjoy the nice weather in an outdoor party space like a park. Most parks are made with little ones in mind, featuring playgrounds with slides, swings, sandboxes, spinners, and climbers. Set up the grill and start cooking while the children run around and play.
-
Gardens – Lush Paradise. Have a wonderful time nibbling on some food on a backyard patio, breathing in the fresh air of a garden. Take in the sights and smells while you celebrate.
-
Restaurants – Intimate Festivities. Restaurants might not be the first place you think of for a kids’ bash, but they’re a huge win for parents who don’t want to cook and clean. If it doesn’t have all the fun features like play areas, feel free to set up one if the venue allows.
-
Museums – Learn and Explore. Who says museums are only for grownups? They're also perfect for your curious kids. And even if history, culture, or science are not their thing, they'll still enjoy the activities, as many museums offer adventures only for children. After your party in a cool diner, end the fun in a museum.
-
Banquet Halls – Party Like Royalty. A kid's birthday party can be as luxurious as you make it. A banquet hall is a great option for a more sophisticated air without taking that kid-friendly element out, making it a fantastic venue for all events.
Children's Party Venue Must-Haves
A kid’s party isn’t your typical get-together. It’s a whole different ballgame compared to adult gatherings, and you need to look for certain features that cater to their needs to guarantee success.
Is your location large enough for your plans? A small room is never enough, even if it's a small group. If you want to keep the kids happy and busy, there should be enough space for activities and open play, or they'll get bored and want to go home.
What is the style of your venue? Think of your venue as the backdrop for your party. It should enhance your theme, not clash with it. For example, a pirate adventure needs a space that feels adventurous, while a science lab party needs a space that feels, well, science-y.
Are there amenities you need? Don't forget the fun stuff! Make sure you have all the supplies you need for games and entertainment, no matter where you're hosting.
How to Plan a Children's Party
Between the invitations, the cake, the games, and keeping a room full of energetic little humans happy, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when you plan a children’s party. But you don’t have to do everything on your own—let us be one of your partners as you navigate the party-planning process with this guide.
Pick a Party Space – It's so easy for excited parents to pick the best location based on their preference, but remember, it's not your big day. You probably think your little one is too young to decide on the venue, but there's nothing wrong with asking. You might be surprised at their response.
Set your Party Theme – Select a theme for your party to enhance your guests' experience. Decorate your cake and venue to match your theme and get the party started.
Level Up the Fun – Make sure that your party has something to keep everyone entertained. Paint the town red (not the walls) with paint parties, set up an obstacle course outdoors, or bounce around in a bounce house. There are countless hands-on activities and games to play—it's just a matter of picking what's best for your young guests.
Create a Guest List – Keep in mind that the children you invite will come with their parents or guardians, so don't forget the adults in your plans. If you're inviting 50 kids, expect at least 100 people to come to the party and plan accordingly.
Children's Party Expenses to Plan For
Children's parties are enjoyable, not only for the kids but also for the young at heart. But they can also be a bit of a financial rollercoaster. That’s why we’ve created a short guide to help you avoid those big drops and stay on track.
Where will the party take place?
This is one of the first questions you must ask yourself, and the answer to this can shape the vibe of the event and your budget. You don't have to scour the streets to spot a hidden gem. Allow us to help you find the best party space for your needs for as little as £15/hour.
How much will the decorations cost?
Create a stunning party atmosphere complete with exquisite decor. Consider what supplies you'll need to decorate the place. Aim above the ordinary and look beyond the usual party decorations. If you don't find anything that captures your interest, why not decorate it yourself?
What will it cost to cover the food?
You want to have a menu that pleases the palate of kids, but don't forget to plan for their parents or guardians as well. Prepare enough food for everyone, and ask a caterer with experience catering for a children's event to help you plan.
