YOUR OWN CITY
Parties
We love being part of your special occasion, which is why we add some wonderful extra's in for any birthday star. Your guests can be invited to the party with our Little City invitations and then to kick-off the party, your little one cuts the big red ribbon to their City for the day.
We also provide some additional birthday-related toys and extra's for your birthday star.
"We had a Little City party for my daughter’s third birthday. It was absolutely fantastic. The kids loved it so much that they didn’t want to stop for tea! Gemma was fab, we couldn’t believe how quickly and effectively she set it all up and she was on hand tidying, cleaning and playing with the kids. I would recommend a Little City party to anyone - genuinely the first time I’ve been to a party where all kids have enjoyed it!"
As the host, all you need to do is hire a space, invite your friends (you could use one of our digital invite images) and turn up with a cake - we can do the rest!
For more information on party hire prices, availability and more, please contact your local Little City branch.
We've also made your party planning even easier and partnered with other small businesses to offer you party boxes and party wear to compliment your party hire! For more info on these wonderful extras click the links above
